Mess'O'Potamia

One of the ways that Iraq has affected pop culture, is through the material Jon Stewart uses for the Daily Show. His material always political in nature but after the war in Iraq started his material became involved in the war. He started a bit in the show called Mess'O'Potamia a pun on the ancient name of the region Mesopotamia. Even now though there is no more Mess'O'Potamia there is still continuous, though humorous, coverage of major events in the war. The Daily Show covers major events in America as they happen, and much of the material has turned to the war showing just how much of an impact the war has had.
