From The Huffington Post

On Wednesday night’s “Daily Show,” Jon Stewart continued his “fun, light hearted and extremely productive conversation” with Fox News about “which one of us is the biggest a**hole,” as he so bluntly put it.

Nearly two weeks after his interview with Chris Wallace, the back and forth between Stewart and the conservative network has been covered a lot of ground, but mostly centered around political bias. Fox News has accused Stewart of being unfair and a “liberal mouthpiece,” and now most recently have taken issue with an impression Stewart did of GOP Presidential hopeful Herman Cain.

Cain has also spoken out against Stewart for the bit, saying it was done so only because he’s a “black conservative.”
