It provided for an entertaining exchange of Liberal and Conservative points, with Stewart clearly relishing his trip into the famed O'Reilly "No Spin Zone", among some of the classic zingers that Mr. Stewart snuck into the Fox environment was a shot at the tendencies of Fox to act as some kind of shadow government.
As well as offering praise for O'Reilly as the voice of sanity at Fox (delivered with perfect comedic timing and adding the caveat of it being akin to being the skinniest kid at Fat farm), he highlighted the sense of panic that Fox News seems to thrive on in their daily News presentations.
Overall we're not sure if the folks at Fox caught all the incoming shots that were put out across their cable and satellite links, and even O'Reilly had problems coming up with a term to describe fellow Conservative gabfest host Glen Beck, but we imagine that the entire staff on the set on Wednesday had to be deprogrammed afterwards, lest any of Mr. Stewarts Liberal agenda managed to settle into their brains.
You can view the fast paced discussion thanks to the wonders of You Tube, the second of the two clips below also include Dennis Miller's interpretation of the O'Reilly/Stewart exchanges and a rather strange little session with a body language analyst who examined their body movements during the session.

There's more of Mr. Stewart on the O'Reilly show on Thursday, clearly having a Liberal commentator must be a ratings winner for the folks at Fox, since they seem to enjoy featuring the O'Reilly/Stewart exchanges, we'll include Thursday's show later in this spot should it appear on YouTube as well.
