This may come as a shock to liberals such as yourself but you do realize The Daily Show is based on satire. Video montages taken out of context and half-truths all designed to entertain the 18 to 40 year old demographic. And he's very good at it...I might add. Hate to see him go.

The Daily Show (titled The Daily Show with Jon Stewart since 1999) is an American late-night talk and news satire television program, which airs each Monday through Thursday on Comedy Central and, in Canada, The Comedy Network.
QUOTE
Describing itself as a fake news program, The Daily Show draws its comedy and satire from recent news stories, political figures, media organizations, and often, aspects of the show itself. The show typically opens with a long monologue from Jon Stewart relating to recent headlines and frequently features exchanges with one or more of several correspondents, who adopt absurd or humorously exaggerated takes on current events against Stewart's straight man persona. The final segment is devoted to a celebrity interview, with guests ranging from actors and musicians to nonfiction authors and political figures.

I hope one of these two guys replace Jon Stewert..John Oliver has his own show on HBO, Bill Hader would also be perfect..
I hope they don't bring on an insider..
