Whereas I agree that there's nothing wrong with fighting fire with fire, it makes a difference when one guy is claiming to be a fireeater, and the other is claiming to be a fireman.

I think that was deep, but I'm not sure.

The point being, when admission of roles came into play, Stewart explained that his show is marketed as comedy, and XFire is marketed as 'debate'. Certainly Carlson has the RIGHT to attack Stewart, but it comes off as hollow. The fireman shouldn't use a fireeater as an example of his highest and best standard.
