I think you're right...I don't think he would have been so harsh if he really had it against the networks and not specifically Cramer.
Also agree with bloated and nasty: Stewart seems to be on the same ego-road that Bill Maher took. Maher was a great satirist with his "Politically Incorrect" show. Then he got kind of full of himself, got far more political than funny and kind of disappeared.
What this boils down to is, "I don't like bullies." I feel that ambushing is a bully tactic. Inviting someone into a place where you are surrounded with resources and allies and then jumping that person is not a fair fight or debate.
