During tonight's Countdown, Keith Olbermann made a major announcement: effective immediately, he's suspending the show's "Worse/Worser/Worst Person in the World" segment, with an aim at eventually killing it altogether. What brought Olbermann to this decision? Jon Stewart, naturally! Watch inside.

If you watch TV, you've probably seen references to this year's campaign season and the fact that it's the "nastiest ever." Is it really, though? Nope—and these mock ads (using real quotations) from the 1800 election prove it.

Last night, Bill Maher played a final montage of Christine O'Donnell's craziest statements—things like, "Condoms don't help!"—before playing a Halloween message from the ladybug herself, during which she decries the "Satanic" holiday's "human sacrifice" element. Videos inside.

Google helped create an ad calling for California's "worst criminals" to get the death penalty, with "no exceptions." But it was inadvertent; Google doesn't even support sentencing people to death. Whoops.

On last night's Report, Stephen Colbert took the opportunity to do what basically nobody else is doing: defend the Rand Paul supporter who stomped on a liberal activist's head. Colbert's defense was sarcastic, obviously, but damn if it wasn't funny.

Tonight, President Obama sat down for a 30-minute Daily Show interview with Jon Stewart. Much was discussed! There was talk of the economy, health care reform, midterm elections, and more—a few pretty tense moments, too. Video highlights, inside.

Since 30 Rock (here) and SNL (here) already threw in their two cents re: Brett Favre's sexting scandal, it seems only natural that South Park would be next. Watch as Cartman visits "Captain Hindsight," who has some advice for Favre.

This week, President Obama told Latino voters that they should go to the polls in order to "punish [their] enemies." Republican "enemies," presumably. On tonight's Factor, Bill O'Reilly—and especially Dennis Miller—took issue with Obama's controversial comments. Watch inside.

Matt Lauer was on a war path with Steven Slater on this morning's Today, questioning the veracity of Slater's infamous exit like a boa constrictor strangling a small rodent. To Slater's credit, though, he did hold his own—somewhat.

Joan Rivers visited The View today, and immediately came out swinging against Whoopi Goldberg for her repeated defense of Mel Gibson. Goldberg, obviously taken by surprise, wasn't happy about the chat, which was extremely tense—and awkward. Watch inside.

California's Prop 19 will legalize marijuana in the state and not everyone is super happy about it. Among that group is the B Squad, whose new ad contemplates what the roads would be like if some drivers were super high.

Last week, Colorado Republican Senate candidate Ken Buck compared homosexuality to alcoholism. Then, Massachusetts Republican Congressional candidate Sean Bielat argued that, if short people can't join the military, gays shouldn't be allowed, either. Yesterday, Stephen Colbert mocked both of them.

Today, the ladies of The View heatedly discussed probably-racist Sharron Angle's definitely-racist campaign ad. During the chat, Joy Behar let her opinion of Angle be known—loud and clear—when she screamed, "She's going to hell, this bitch!" Video inside.

Tonight, Larry King gave us an epic #OldPeople moment when asking Julian Assange why he left an interview with CNN International's Atika Shubert. Basically, King saw footage of the previous walkout... and mistook it for a live shot. Watch inside.

Tonight, The Daily Show returned with the first of a week of shows from Washington, DC. Immediately, Jon Stewart took both NPR—for its boring spinelessness—and Fox News—for its revenge-hungry personalities—to task over the Juan Williams fiasco. Video inside.

Lillian McEwen, the book-touting former girlfriend (as in, way former) of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, previously said he was addicted to porn. On tonight's Larry King Live, another revelation: apparently, quitting alcohol made Thomas go absolutely cray-cray! Video inside.

Aaron Gouveia and his wife recently visited a Massachusetts clinic to abort their unborn baby, who had a congenital deformity/no chance of survival. While there, they were accosted by anti-abortion protesters. Gouveia then turned the tables on them. Watch inside.

The Brett Favre sexting scandal has permeated many arenas of pop culture (even 30 Rock). And tonight, it leaped into yet another one with its own sketch on SNL. Watch as Jason Sudekis' Favre pitches his "open fly jeans."

Republican Senator Jim DeMint has confirmed that he will introduce legislation to cut federal funding from NPR after they fired analyst Juan Williams for making insensitive comments about Muslims on Fox. The Right's war on NPR has begun in earnest!

NPR has really done it now: They actually fired an employee, Juan Williams, for making insensitive comments about Muslims on television. Is this the American way? Former GOP presidential candidate Mike Huckabee, for one, wants NPR stripped of public funding.
