Very, very, very excellent snark

This:

I apologize for my mistake. To not do so would be irresponsible ... that would undermine the very integrity and credibility that I work so hard to pretend to care about.

    Politifact actually misquoted Jon Stewart. They said that he said that Fox news viewers were the most ill informed. He said that they were the most misinformed. There is an argument to be made about the swap of these two words. Some may suggest that his statement was more correct than the statement Politifact judged.
