Jon Stewart of Comedy Central's "The Daily Show" will debate Fox News host Bill O'Reilly at George Washington University tomorrow night. 

"O'Reilly v. Stewart 2012: The Rumble in the Air-Conditioned Auditorium" will stream live on the internet -- but it's not free.

You can watch the event, which begins at 8 p.m., by going to TheRumble2012.com website and paying $4.95. Half of the net profits go to charity.

If you're not familiar with how these pay-per-stream things go, you can watch it live while it streams (or watch later streams) and when the download is available, you can have a copy to keep. They ask that you not redistribute it or share it, though.

You can watch on via computer, iPad or iPhone, Android or other mobile device. Or even on your TV if you have a Roku. Here are the full rules. It should be a good one!

You know how you know this is going to be good? After introducing "The Daily Show" correspondents at various locations around Charlotte, host Jon Stewart introduces John Oliver in this way: "And John Oliver, downtown, which for some reason here is called uptown, which I think, we can all agree, is stupid."

Here's the full clip of the Comedy Central show introducing their viewers to Charlotte, host city of the 2012 Democratic National Convention (and by the way, Cindy Adams, this is an example of how to artfully poke a little fun at a different culture without being a lazy, stereotype-spewing hack).

You know how there's a Viacom blackout on DirecTV and everybody's all, "Oh, I'll just watch on the internet" about it?

Not so fast!

That's what DirecTV was advising customers to do (watch online), so  Viacom cut off internet access to some of the most popular shows on their darkened channels.

Here are the shows you can't watch online: "The Daily Show" and "Colbert Report" (Comedy Central); "Spongebob Squarepants," "Victorious" and "iCarly" (Nickelodeon); "Dora the Explorer" (Nick Jr.); "Jersey Shore" and "Teen Mom" (MTV); and "Hot in Cleveland" (TV Land).

Update: CNN is reporting that DirecTV is giving $10 discounts to subscribers who call and complain about the missing content.

Lizz Winstead, co-creator and former head writer for "The Daily Show," is currently touring the country doing political satire shows.

Tomorrow night, she brings that show to Carrboro.

This "My State of the Union" performance will be her first after Tuesday night's election. The show takes place at The ArtsCenter in Carrboro at 8pm. For more details on Winstead and on tickets for the show, read this article in today's Chapel Hill News.

Is Comedy Central's "Daily Show with Jon Stewart" a big ole boys club?

That's what Jezebel charged in a recent online article. The women who actually work at "The Daily Show" responded today in an open letter.

Betty White appeared on "The Daily Show" Monday night and got tons of love from Jon Stewart and the audience, who chanted her name when she came out. It's a really cute interview. What's puzzling is that she once again states that she just won't joke about drugs, but she has a pot joke in the first scene of her new sitcom "Hot in Cleveland," which debuts tonight. Or maybe I'm not clear on exactly what constitutes joking about drugs. But no matter what Betty White is joking around about, she's hilarious. Check out the video below.

It wasn't exactly a shining moment for our state, but earlier this week, "The Daily Show's" Jon Stewart took C-Span host Bill Scanlan to task for sitting silently during a racist rant from a caller from North Carolina.

From North Caroina? Ugh.

It seems that Bill, who identified himself as a Republican from St. Paul's, was upset that C-Span was taking so many "black folks" on the call-in line, and suggested to the host that the network change its name from C-Span to Black-Span.

Let the jokes begin (again).

On last night's "Daily Show with Jon Stewart," Jon Stewart brought his viewers up to speed on the latest in the John Edwards saga, declaring the former Senator's admission yesterday that he is the father of Rielle Hunter's baby, "a shock to idiots."

He also said of Edwards' hope that his youngest daughter would one day forgive him, that he believed Edwards could end most of his sentences with that sentiment for the rest of his life: "I'm looking forward to the football games on Sunday, hopefully some day she'll forgive me."

Stewart also speculated it was all part of Edwards' plan to announce his new line of perfume: "Forgiveness, by John Edwards. For the day she grows out of hating you for denying you were her father."

Watch the clip of the "Daily Show" segment below:

Everyone's talking today about the antics of South Carolina's rogue governor Mark Sanford, who disappeared for several days and at one point was reported to be off hiking the Appalachian Trail. Turns out he was actually "crying in Argentina" with his mistress.

The State newspaper in Columbia has compiled some clips of news and comedy shows skewering the missing governor, the funniest being from Comedy Central's "The Daily Show" and "The Colbert Report."

"The Daily Show" calls one of their segments "Fled . . .

The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, 11pm, Comedy Central

Last Thursday night Jon Stewart rumbled with Jim Cramer. Tonight, he rocks with The Boss.

Bruce Springsteen will perform tonight on The Daily Show. The only other musicians to ever perform live on Stewart's show are The White Stripes, Coldplay, and Tom Waits. Springsteen released a new abum in January -  "Working on a Dream."

In other Comedy Central news, Stewart's colleague Stephen Colbert will soon begin taping a week's worth of shows on a USO tour in the Persian Gulf. Comedy Central has not yet announced an airdate for The Colbert Report USO shows.
