Synopsis:

Iconoclastic, subversive, hilarious, and vulgar, Jon Stewart of The Daily Show is a major source of news for the twentysomething set as well as older television watchers numbed by conventional reporting. Packed with jokes, this mock textbook, with the familiar stamp on the inside cover reading "This book is the property of..." contains chapters packed with ludicrous charts and maps, sidebars, illustrations, and "were you aware?" and discussion questions. Prominent among the features are a foldout chart of the "shadow government" and an infamous "dress the Supreme Court" page depicting the justices in the nude. And there's plenty more.
