How is Stewart undermining his beliefs through his behavior? Are you saying that in order to criticize Crossfire, one must first do the same thing they do? And no one else is permitted to tell them they're doing a shit job?
I don't think that follows. Can't you criticize a doctor for doing a poor job even if you're not yourself a doctor?
Or a plumber? Or a pundit? Or a president?
If a chiropractor is sexually abusing his patients, it's not wrong for me to say so, even if I'm an erotic masseuse.
