Face Off: Jon Stewart vs. CNBC's Cramer (Video)

Jon Stewart is a hero. He is the media we wish we had. Jim Cramer finally appeared on Jon Stewart's Daily Show last night for the much-anticipated face-off, and he was annihilated. "I understand you want to make finance entertaining, but it's not a fu*king game" . . CNBC and Cramer's actions were "disingenuous at best and criminal at worst . . " said Stewart. This video clip should be required viewing in journalism classes.
