Comedy Central hosts Jon Stewart of the "Daily Show" and Stephen Colbert of the "Colbert Report" held a rally on the National Mall on the weekend before the 2010 midterm elections. The nonpartisan rally to "restore sanity and/or fear" was billed as a politically themed entertainment program and featured several satirical acts and sketches. At the end of the rally, Mr. Stewart gave more serious remarks criticizing partisan political and media culture that often drowns out respectful debate in the country.
