Jon Stewart and CNN's doubling of their ratings

I really like the way Jon Stewart on the Daily Show handles CNN's doubling of it's ratings during the Malaysian Air Lines disaster when it was running (still is) about 23 hours a day on the flight and where it is or where it might be or who is at fault (etc. etc. etc.) Though Fox News at first mocked CNN they started doing 23 hours a day on the flight too. Then MSNBC mocked CNN and Fox before it started to do the same thing too which I find sort of funny.

But, to me, what is even more strange about all this is that the U.S. and Europe may go to war with Russia over what it is doing to Ukraine and potentially other countries and people on all three of these "Entertainment news Networks" are covering a missing plane? That to me is sort of like wondering where a lost child is while you forget to realize you are in the middle of a street and about to get hit by a truck.

In other words worrying about the lost child is important but if you don't stay alive even if you find the lost child it won't matter because there won't be anyone to take care of the lost child because you will be dead!
