We're not as think as you stoned we are.
The folks at Comedy Central were annoyed when Fox News Channel’s Bill O’Reilly kept referring to “The Daily Show” audience as “stoned slackers.”

Viewers of Jon Stewart’s show are more likely to have completed four years of college than people who watch “The O’Reilly Factor,” according to Nielsen Media Research.
I post about it not just because O’Reilly was trying to egg Stewart with typical FOX-right-wing-hammer strokes, but because Stewart was so completely unfazed by it and let such a honest sense of humor shine through all the insinuations.
Ubersite has an interesting play-by-play of the transcript available. And here is the original transcript off the FOX NEWS website.
