Neither. Self-indulgent arrogant pricks who will not teach you anything. They are political comedians. You cannot be informed on politics if you listen to political comedians. That is not a debate. Stewart is a jew who renounced his religion, and his retarded step-borther Colbert isn't much better. Yes I have watched both shows, and yes they both suck. Asking which is better is like asking who is worse, Nazis or Communists. Yes, one killed more people, but when you massacre millions of people, how many million no longer matters. In closing, both are ovverrated comedians who represent everything wrong with American culture.

Jon Stewart relies a bit too much on awkward pauses and raging outbursts of profanity, which are hilariuos but a little predictable.
Colbert's got that weird, off-kilter wit going on at all times.
That plus the thinly-veiled satire, you've gotta admit staying in character like that is pretty impressive.

I personally just like Stewart more as it gives more of satire of the news, which is what I want. Don't get me wrong, Colbert is hilarious and one of the most entertaining people on TV, but he gets a little too crazy some times in his parody of the right wing.
I really like Stephen Colbert better and you should probably edit your post because right now you've spelt Jon's last name wrong. It's Stewart not Stewert...
I almost always watch both, but if I skip one, it's usually Colbert. Colbert is funnier, but Stewart's points are usually more interesting and explained better, and he is a much, much better interviewer. These strengths and weaknesses are probably most closely related to the fact that Colbert is compelled to follow his character, while Stewart is able to flex around his intellect a bit more.
They are both great and the only thing that puts Jon Stewart on top for me is Senior Black Correspondent, Larry Wilmore, and before he left, Rob Riggle. Those guys are hilarious. I don't know if anyone was watching last night, but Larry Wilmore did a great commentary. But if we are just looking at each by themselves, it's really a tie. They complement each other well, and after watching both, I am thankful for Television. If they were the only show ever on TV, It wouldn't be so bad.

sorry about the quality, its not mine.
Larry Wilmore also did an animated series called the PJ's, and it was so funny.

Jon Stewart is the scalpel. He carefully constructs arguments, words everything with caution, and strikes specifically, focussing on single issues and hypocracies rather than larger ideals.
Stephen Colbert is the Sledgehammer. He batters idiotic opinions into dust with relentless no holds barred sarcasm and mockery. He focuses on larger ideas and the very reasons people come to a broad political position.

Not quite, Stewart seems to be making fun of liberals as well. Seen the "That's great...now fix the economy" sketch?trademark956 said:
Jon Stewart in every single way. I have an autographed picture of him wishing me happy birthday. But I haven't gotten to meet him yet, as I was supposed to through the person who got me the picture...
