Jon Stewart’s / The Daily Show’s response to the flap over Gizmodo publishing details of the new Apple iPhone secret prototype that they bought for $5k after an Apple guy somehow managed to leave it behind in a bar (then Apple had the cops storm the Gizmodo guy’s apartment even after the phone was returned): They’re “Appholes”

OMG! This is priceless.  Here’s a  video gem excerpt of SAC Capital’s Steven Cohen — with a full head of hair — and his wife Alex, a month into their marriage, as they appeared on the talk show “Christina” in a 1992 segment entitled “He Acts Like Her Husband, Too”.  They discussed how he was still involved with his ex-wife  Patricia (and apparently still sleeping with her some of the time, though that’s not included in the video excerpt).   Sex with the  former Mrs. Cohen ended after he and Alex got engaged.  During his marriage to Patricia, Cohen admitted there were some “financial difficulties”.   Cohen starting SAC Capital in 1992 — the same year as the below footage.   Now his  ex is suing him for guzillions and alleging that he engaged in insider trading.

The Daily Show: MBA Ethics Oath

Posted by WSF On August - 13 - 2009

Jon Stewart: “After months and months of dark clouds, there is some good news…”  Segue to Goldman Sachs’ huge earnings: “WE’RE BACK!!!!”  “That is the sound of raw capitalism…Stampeding!!!”

“Goldman Sachs makes $3.4 billion dollars in profit…from April to June. I guess the bailouts are working……for Goldman Sachs. How is it happening? Let me explain it to you. The U.S. Economy is basically a pyramid…”  Then he explains how Goldman is atop that pyramid….

This is WAY too funny.  Jon Stewart gets two lampoons in for the price of one on last night’s ‘The Daily Show’.  He looks at Lenny Dykstra’s rise and fall, from his days as a brainless foul mouthed jock (what the hell was he chewing?….classy!) to financial guru living the high life in his multi-million dollar estate to bankrupt delusional.  And then Stewart ties it up with a big bow mocking his old buddy Jim Cramer who’s shown ridiculously and earnestly praising Dykstra on his show as “A guy who is applying the same skills to money that he applied to sports.  It’s brilliant!”….”Not only is he sophisticated but he is one of the great ones in this business”.

Don’t miss this one.  It’s pretty hilarious.
