“The Pulitzer Prize-winning website PolitiFact looked into [Stewart's
claim that Fox News viewers were the most uninformed] and on the truth
meter it rated Jon’s claim false,”

Chris Wallace said. “The details are even more interesting. In a survey
called misinformation in the 2010 election, people were asked a series
of fact questions like which president signed TARP? But the poll also
asked questions like this: As you know the American economy had a major
downturn the fall of 2008. Do you think that now the American economy
is ‘a,’ starting to recover? Or ‘b,’ still getting worse? ‘Starting to
recover’ was the so-called right answer. If you said, ‘still getting
worse’ you were officially misinformed. If you question whether climate
change is occurring or whether Obamacare will add to deficit, you were
also mistaken.

“Then there was last year’s Pew poll which asked four fact questions
like what job did Eric Holder have? It turns out Fox News scored
better, not worse, than MSNBC, CNN, network evening news and the
network morning news. As for individual shows, 31 percent of [Sean]
Hannity viewers got all four questions correct, 29 percent for [Bill]
O’Reilly. All the way down near the bottom viewers of Jon Stewart’s
‘Daily Show’ at 22 percent. So, all the talk of you are the most
consistently misinformed viewers, I guess the joke is on Jon Stewart.”

And then a vast majority of PolitiFact's readers let them know they were
misinformed.
