Get Religion does a (typically excellent)
treatment of Zinedine Zidane's religious affiliation (and now-infamous headbutt at the WorldCup), but also notes this funny little piece done by the Daily Show:
"So while our friends cover the simmering controversy that is Zidane’s head-butt, I’d like to point you to Jon Stewart’s Daily Show [click on the "headline" which reads Winnisso and watch to the end], which did some research and discovered the roots of the France/Italian football rivalry: an attempt to resolve the ancient score between the two countries over Pope Clement V’s decision to move the papacy to France. The Daily Show knows its religion history."
[warning] The Daily Show sometimes contains vulgar humor. [/warning]
