On last night's THE DAILY SHOW on Comedy Central, in the wake of the racially motivated church shooting in South Carolina, state lawmakers and major retailers revisit their use of the Confederate flag.

Joked host Jon Stewart, "I mean, look - I knew we sold cheap guns, really cheap," Stewart said, mimicking McMillon. "You know what I mean? To anybody. ... [But] I didn't know you could get them with the stars-and-bars holster. That sends a very dangerous message." Watch the clip below!

One anchor, several correspondents, zero credibility.

If you're tired of the stodginess of the evening newscasts and you can't bear to sit through the spinmeisters and shills on the 24-hour cable news network, don't miss THE DAILY SHOW with Jon Stewart, the nightly half-hour series unburdened by objectivity, journalistic integrity or even accuracy.

The Emmy and Peabody Award-winning Daily Show takes a reality-based look at news, trends, pop culture, current events, politics, sports and entertainment with an alternative point of view. In each show, anchorman Jon Stewart and a team of correspondents, including Aasif Mandvi, John Oliver, Wyatt Cenac, Jason Jones and Samantha Bee, comment on the day's stories, employing actual news footage, taped field pieces, in-studio guests and on-the-spot coverage of important news events.

THE DAILY SHOW WITH JON STEWART -- it's even better than being informed.
