It all began on March 4 as Stewart questioned the stock-market accumen of multiple CNBC personalities, including Cramer.
When Cramer sniped back on a Today show segment on Tuesday, Stewart returned fire on that night's Daily Show.
Further aggravating the situation, CNBC analyst Rick Santelli's tirade about how irresponsible homeowners don't deserve mortgage bailouts became a viral video hit.
Cramer said he was taken out of context in an article he wrote for MainStreet.com. Stewart apologizes for taking Cramer out of context, but then produces two other clips that clearly show Cramer advising his audience to buy Bear — five days and seven weeks earlier.
Stewart declares the Basic Cable Personality Clash Skirmish '09 is on.
On March 10, Cramer appeared on two NBC morning shows: Today and MSNBC's Morning Joe to plead his case over Jon's remarks.
Cramer will now appear as a guest on The Daily Show Thursday, March 12 at 11 pm/ET for the war of words smackdown.
