Which show is more left-wing?

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Family Guy. The Daily Show is great, but it occasionally delves into Moderate Hero-esque false equivalency from time to time. Family Guy is all liberal, all the time.

I enjoyed the episode where Stewie addressed the audience and called for the nationalisation of industry before belting a rousing chorus of "The Red Flag".

[Sprouts Farmers Market ✘]

Family Guy mocks Brian's political beliefs from time to time and made Rush Limbaugh look sane.

This.

[SWE]

Family Guy often looks like it was made by a right winger parodying leftists.

[Mr. Smith]

Economically, definitely Family Guy.

Socially, Daily Show for sure

[Antonio the Sixth]

The Daily Show, since Jon Stewart actually has principles and isn't just trying hard to be edgy.

Probably Family Guy, given that Jon Stewart is one of those morons who thinks that "both sides are equally bad," and that it's possible to be objective or non-ideological.

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

Family Guy is weirdly unprincipled in its presentation of its liberalism. One sometimes gets the sense that Seth MacFarlane is liberal for much the same set of fundamentally amoral reasons that somebody like, say, freepcrusher is.

[Oldiesfreak1854]

Family Guy, since the politics on there almost entirely devoted to parodying Christians and conservatives.  The Daily Show is left-wing, but at least it's bipartisan in some ways.

Since when?

Just because the Daily Show calls the Dems on their occasional BS, usually when they're being cowards against GOP nutbaggery? They certainly target the GOP and their support base to a far far greater degree than the left.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

The Daily Show often attacks Democrats on non-partisan type issues like corruption, which I don't have a problem with (the bit Stewart did about the indictment of Leland Yee on gun trafficking was hilarious, especially the highlighting of that Yee quote the FBI caught on a wiretap.) But they often go beyond that, such as in 2012 when Stewart was really tough toward Harry Reid for things like the "A Bain investor told me Mitt Romney didn't pay any income taxes for the last 10 years". Now it's hard to get too upset when Stewart was bashing Romney ten times as much, but there are times when it feels as if the Daily Show writers think they have some sort of quota to hit Democrats from time to time even if not deserved or nothing compared to Republican antics.

Also most of The Daily Show's coverage of Occupy Wall Street was pretty bad. I bet if John Oliver's Last Week Tonight was around then Oliver's piece would probably be like "Yeah look at these OWS folks, a lot of them are pretty silly. But let's listen to their points" and then touch on the issues of income inequality and corporate greed that were fueling the movement and point out those are WAY bigger issues. TDS was mostly "haha look at these silly hippies...oh but look a their conservative critics too! Yeah admittedly those people are a lot worse", which strikes me as similar to if someone right after WWII did some comparison of the Dachau Massacre and the whole Nazi concentration camps with equal focus but then said something like "But yeah, of course what the Nazis did was a lot worse."

bad analogy is bad

[Antonio the Sixth]

Jon Stewart has opinions and expresses them regardless of whether this benefits Democrats or Republicans. That makes him an intelligent, principled person who's worth listening to.

Total, utter nonsense.  Jon Stewart clearly supports the Democrats and identifies as a socialist.  Despite this, he remains more objective than most mainstream reporters.

Why would a "socialist" support the Democratic Party?

An actual socialist wouldn't. A social democrat on the other hand might.

[Mr. Smith]

Why wouldn't they? Democrats are still closer tote socialist perspective than the Republicans.

Better right-wing social reform than no social reform at all, or even making it worse for dogmatic reasons.

A social Democrat/liberal is a right-wing socialist no?

Because either they or the right wing party are going to win 99.9% of elections.

I don't even begin to know how to answer this.  Which party do you think we would vote for, the Republicans?

Stewart thinks socialism means any government action
