Hate him, he's Canadian

Investigative reporter Matthew Vadum displays his comic genius on "The Daily Show":

Matthew tells me he's gotten hate mail as a result of this appearance. I should explain that Matthew is a top-notch investigative journalist whose reporting on ACORN has set the standard. He "gets" the kind of humor that they want on "The Daily Show," and the jokes he made were jokes. The jokes were based in fact -- indeed, ACORN has used crack dealers in its operations -- but they were still jokes.
