Please clear your desks my friends, it's time for a pop quiz. I mean Fresh Question. Nothing new to report so here we go! And hang on tight, this is a bumpy one.
Genius minds who spew out the truth while entertaining at the same time are loved for trying to pull us as far away from the mindless social sheep pop culture is doomed to be. Those Denis Millers and Chris Rocks have a very important job. Which do you think does/did it the best??

You seem to be talking about people who are out to make you laugh, but my choice would be a news man, Bill O'Riely. I first discovered his show on FOX News back during the election fiasco, and turned him on often because he was one of the few who's opinion I respected. And while I may agree with him most of the time, I do disagree with him from time to time, but alwasy respect his opinion and I think he has a great show.

Dennis Miller and Jon Stewart. Then again, from my signature you probably all already knew who I would say. :)

The only talking head I trust is David Byrne.

I think Jerry Seinfeld's HBO show "I'm Telling You For The Last Time" is hysterical. and it's all true. cabbies in new york city...security at airports...shopping in a supermarket...drug stores...etc, etc.

If it is comedians you want, I think my favorite comedian is George Carlin.

"Truth" is subjective. One man's truth is another man's lie. Or woman, for the feminists out there. :D

Yeah, I suppose that's "true". ;) Truth can be subjective. But it's guys like George Carlin are deemed brilliant because they share this universal truth that the average justice craving person, who seems screwed over by the world they live in, wants to express, but doesn't have a real large medium.
I'm glad George Carlin was brought up, cuz cruel as he is, I think he's brilliant. Although Dennis Miller is by far my favorite.

George Carlin is a dirty old man, and I don't find him funny at all.
However, I think Chris Rock and Jon Stewart are hysterical

Definitely Dennis Miller. His rants are some of the funniest stuff on TV.
