Blogger Tribute On Daily Show 9/29/04

Maybe not 100% accurate, but pretty close from memory. This came from a “report” on Thursday’s debate and aired on Wednesday night. Ed Helms is the correspondent. Helms has just read his "after the debate" story. Here’s the comedy pearl:

Stewart: Wait a minute. You already wrote your report for the debate?

Helms: We all do it. We prepare the narrative ahead of time and then make the story fit.

Stewart: But what do you do if actual news happens?

And the sandy grain of truth around which the pearl is formed:

Helms: That’s what bloggers are for.
