Last week was a great week of Daily Shows and Colbert Reports last week.
So far I just have the Daily Shows up here (in both Quicktime and MP3s).
There were some really relevant and incredible shows last week and I want to make sure you see all the highlights.
So I'll be putting them up one at a time starting now, too.
Here's the playlist I've started for them: December Daily Show Clips.
Many of you responded to my request for Jon's post-911 monologue. Thanks so much for your help.
It gives me a chance to explain how Dabble is a useful tool for collecting information about video clips.
I've created an example record here:
Jon Stewart's Post-911 Monologue.
I had an embedded youtube video of this here, but it takes to long for the page to load, so you'll have to click on More.
Updated 11/29/05 - see new link below
This just in from one of my wonderful readers:
Want to watch clips from past year in one file? Then download this torrent:
http://ts.searching.com/torrent/489042/The_Best_of_The_Daily_Show_Vol_2xvidThis project is the culmination of MANY hours of labor. It is a reprise of a
Daily show best of I made last year. I decided to do it again and this time
make a LOW quality xvid for those who don't want to download the DVD format.These are mostly clips of Jon, but there are pieces from each correspondent
as well. They are all just what I thought was funniest. The entire file is
about 6 hours long (you try to cut out bits from a year's worth of TDS -
it's HARD!)Enjoy, and please SEED!
thanks,

Hey I've been asked for the 400th time if I have Stewart's post-911 speech. I don't have it, but I would sure love to have it in my library.
Let me know if you have it or know where I can find it.
thanks!
This is from the October 6, 2005 program.

These clips are from the May 10 and 11, 2005 programs.
Well, I knew this would happen at some point, I can't tell you much more about these clips than the filenames will tell you, because I haven't really watched them very closely. I was just trying to pump them out so I could make them available for you.
Thanks for all the great PDF advice! PDF995 ended up working great.
You guys are the best. Here's your thank you present:

This has a very frank Wanda Sykes interview. Impressively frank. It won't translate well if I quote it, so I'll let it speak for itself...but right on Wanda for being honest about Hollywood!

(Thanks for the mirrors Guan!)
Here's another mirror of these. (Thanks Matt!)
More on the way guys.
These clips are from the May 9, 2005 program.
Actually, the blogging clip might be from the 10th. (Sorry.)

another mirror of these clips. (Thanks Matt!)
Metadata that goes with these clips (you can tell which is which from the filenames):
CNN's stupid blogging segments - where people actually just read from blogs verbatim, as if it's news.
A movie about Texas' freaked-out cheerleading censorship law.
Bush's visit to Russia - Putin on 60 minutes. (daily1.mov)
Samantha Bee covers the online gambling craze.
How Arnie's Screwing Over California Educators (and therefore California Education)
The Roadless Area conservation rule that Clinton signed into law before he left, and how the repubs are going about overturning it.
Okay, so, like I said, I'm trying to be constructive about the fact that I'm going to be homebound for a few days, so I'm going to try to bang out this and last week's Daily Show clips for starters.
Can those with available mirror space please email me at lisa@lisarein.com so we can proceed?
I'm really sorry for being so swamped these last few months and flaking out on my Daily Show responsibilities. I'm trying to re-org my schedule so I have at least a few hours a week to get those suckers up.
Thanks for being patient. (Only a few of you have been politely nudging...which I don't mind at all :)
thanks!!
lisa
P.S. Will those of you that kindly donated mirror space in the past that I never linked to please re-connect with me so I can get that stuff up too? It amazes me how, what should be a quick thing to link to (once I've done the hard part - generating all the clips and uploading to the various servers) can get back burnered when things start picking up at the record label. I appreciate it so much that you would mirror clips for me, and I don't mean to be careless with your time and energy. Many apoly-logies for that.
These are from the February 14, 2005 program.
The first one is kinda funny, as well as being newsworthy and rather informative.
The second clip (movie on the DNC convention) just isn't all that funny, but it's still sort of informative.

In this segment, we get to learn lots of fun facts about Wal-Mart. Like how they call a 28 hour week "full time." And how the company has recently launched a huge PR campaign to try to combat the numerous lawsuits and bad press its been getting lately.

So let's see how many of these suckers I can link to today.
They are all already available here, by date, in my archive (where you can always look for them in general). (The new ones are from late November and all of December.)
But, as you know, I like to include metadata with them in my posts here, so you can find them later when you're looking for a specific clip. (And so I can find them later when I'm looking for a specific clip.)
These all have mirrors too, but only for a month or so, so if it's after February 2005 and the mirrors don't work anymore, that's why.
Try to use the mirrors while they're there though, because I imagine bandwidth will get pretty scarce over the next few days as this stuff gets accessed all at once.
Thanks in advance for letting me know if any of this stuff isn't working properly, or if I have any bad links. I'll leave these clips on my hard drive for a couple days, to make sure everything made it. Then I gotta start clearing off my hard drives to get ready to install my home recording studio. (I got a Digi 001 and I'm quite excited about it!)
I also have a few tech issues that have been plaguing me that I'm going to need your help with.
Anyway, major catch up day today.
peace,
lisa

(
Mirror of this clip)
Included in this clip:
Jon makes the insightful observation that, although the families of America were supposedly shocked and offended by the Desperate Wives/NFL cross promotional advertisement where the actresses shows off here naked....back! A bit later in that same broadcast, the same families were apparently unbothered by two women wrestling each other over a bud light. (And presumably scantilly-clad in some fashion - as is the tradition with beer ads - note: hearsay alert! I have not seen this ad)
He then goes on to discuss the first official partisan act of new CIA chief Porter Goss: to tell his ranks to shut up and support everything the Shrub Administration does (and, generally, to not question authority).
Jon ends the segment by reminding us all that Robert Novack still hasn't been penalized or prosecuted in any way for endangering the life of a CIA agent by leaking her identity in one of his articles.
This is from the November 10, 2004 program.
Note that there is a zip file of all 4 clips also available for download.

Every day will have a "repubconv-1,2,3," an interview labeled by name and other little bits, including some "Moments of Zen" and closing credits that were just too cool to not post.

I never got around to blogging more than a couple of them individually...
Highlights include:

An Interview With Maureen Dowd
Robert Novak Being a "Douchebag For Liberty (Again) Freedom"

And a really important report from Ed Helms about the organization making calls on behalf of Ralph Nader in order to re-elect George Bush.
(CSE - Citizens for a Sound Economy)
This is from the August 9, 2004 program.
Jon Stewart and his crew provide their usual excellent job of researching the facts before going to press. (Too bad the "real" press isn't as good at doing this.)
It turns out that not even one of the people in the anti-Kerry ad denouncing his purple hearts actually served with Kerry in Vietnam. They were in Vietnam at the time, but never knew Kerry. The doctor who appears in the ad also never actually treated Kerry -- or at least his name wasn't found on any of Kerry's medical records from Vietnam.

Stewart: "Mr. Vice President, I have to inform you: You're pants are on fire."
Cheney said he never stated that it was "pretty well confirmed" that meetings had taken place between Saddam's Officials and Al Queda members. The Daily Show dug up the Meet the Press coverage from December 9, 2001 that proves otherwise.
As a blogger and "traditional" journalist, I always hesitate to throw the word "lie" around unless I can validate my statement. How wonderful that we live in an age where I can present my case and back it up with evidence all on one interactive medium (for those that have quicktime, anyway...)
I also had the luxury of having the Daily Show With Jon Stewart to do my homework for me.
Here's the Complete Video Clip of the contradicting statements as presented within this larger daily show clip. (The larger clip also contains footage of the Shrub and Rummy making excuses for their past inaccurate statements.)
Here'sa tiny clip of Cheney denying he ever said the meeting was "pretty well confirmed.
(Source: CNBC)
CNBC: "You have said in the past that it was quote "pretty well confirmed."
Cheney: "No, I never said that. Never said that. Absolutely not."
Here's a little clip of the Meet the Press footage
where he clearly did say just that such a meeting was "pretty well confirmed."
(Source: Meet The Press, December 9, 2001)
Cheney: "It's been pretty well confirmed, that he didn't go to Prague and he did meet with a Senior Official of the Iraqi Intelligence service."

There's also an interview with Tim Russert in there in the May directory....
This is from the May 10, 2004 program.
Highlights include Rummy forgetting to bring the chart of the chain of command with him to the hearings:
Mc Cain: "Mr. Secretary, I'd like to know...I'd like you to give the committee the chain of command from the guards to you. All the way up the chain of command.
Rummy: "I think General Myers brought an indication of it..."
General Myers: "We did not bring it."
Rummy: "Oh my. It was all prepared."
Myers: "It was!"

(Can you say "electrofied genitals?" I knew you could.)
He also clarifies that, despite all the headlines last week saying "President Bush Apologizes," he actually did no such thing. He let his press flak do it for him.
