Jon Stewart still baffled by Twitter
If you've ever tried to find Jon Stewart on Twitter, your search most likely turned up a bunch of fakes ... but no real Jon.Well, you discovered why if you tuned in to "The Daily Show" Monday (Mar. 1) night. Apparently, Stewart is still baffled by the popularity/purpose of Twitter.
In a segment called "Old Man Stewart Shakes His Fist at [Twitter]," Stewart tries to understand the tweeting phenomenon with a little help from his "Tech Correspondent," Samantha Bee.
The ever-funny Bee explains Twitter's merits to Stewart, adding, "It's no wonder young people love it, according to reports about young people by middle-aged people."
Stewart still doesn't seem convinced. Wonder how many people are tweeting about that today ... hmmm.

Hi Christine, nice article. But this episode aired MONTHS ago. Why write about now? Did you just catch the rerun last night? This is hardly an excuse for news...
Hi G! Funny you should ask...I was actually trying to find Jon Stewart on Twitter yesterday (no joke!) and searched *everywhere* for his Twitter handle, including "The Daily Show" website...where I stumbled across his episode from the night before. It suddenly made sense why he's not on Twitter. Thought that was post-worthy for those who have struggled to find Stewart on Twitter as well!
yeah, what G said. but it was funny (and true!). :)
oh just saw your reply now, Christine.uh-uh yup got it now whatever.
