I would strongly advise anyone that is passionate about hunting to not have anything to do with something like this. Like said above, they already know where they want this to go and they will twist and tweak things to get it there. They will make both sides look like fools just to get a laugh. I can almost assure you they will not shed a good light on "real" hunters.

I don't get extended cable anymore so I don't get comedy central, but when I did the daily show was one of my favorite shows. John Stewart is just a funny guy. However I have seen John himself say in an interview that he can't believe how many young adults whatch his show for the actual news. He clearly admits his show is not considered news and has no accurate reporting. It is political satire and poking fun of different cultures.

If you are contacted about doing this piece I would suggest having a serious discussion with the producers about where they want this segment to go and how they feel about the issue. And make it clear that you are passionate about hunting and don't want to made a fool of on national television. I would hope they would be honest with you, but I wouldn't bet my paycheck on it. I highly doubt anyone on that show is a hunter or has any interest at all in making one or the other look good. Half of them are probably yuppy vegitarians, and the other half may belong to PETA. Then again maybe not, because I think they tore into PETA once, could be wrong about that. If not they should look into that as well.

Unless it is that important for you to get on TV and get your 5 minutes of fame.

And if someone from the daily show really looks at these posts and disagrees with what I said please feel free to post here, Private Message me, or Email me for that matter and correct my line of thinking.
