Here is what I can say: The Daily Show uses fair use in the way it was meant to be used. That means they take small clips/pics and build original content around it. For example they might have a 7 minute long bit during which they use 45 seconds of other people's content and the other 6:45 is their own stuff that they added to it. In short, they are adding 6:45 of commentary. Just saying, "this is the best dance routine I have ever seen," and posting the full clip is a far cry from what they do.

did you even watch the bit in question

do you know how many minutes of fair use content was used in that bit.
