How good was he? So good that CNN actually cancelled "Crossfire" a few months later. Not only did they cancel it, but they cited Stewart's criticism as one of the reasons why. Seriously.

Stewart can claim that he's just a comedian till he's blue in the face. The fact remains: Dude got a terrible show canceled. He deserves our eternal, unyielding gratitude.
