What Happened to Jon Stewart? — A Retrospective
Added 2022-02-28 23:08:59 +0000 UTCJon Stewart is one of the most influential political commentators of the 21st Century, a champion for liberals, and one of the most dominant presences on TV ever (10 straight Emmys!). He's returned to TV with The Problem with Jon Stewart, and it got me wondering: What the hell happened to Jon Stewart?

Uggg...I saw this. Honestly i think Stewart could maybe do a good job in a small local government office but I don't want him in congress or as president like some people on reddit seem to want.

2022-03-03 23:15:47 +0000 UTCThanks for covering The Daily Show and their failed coverage of protests like Occupy. It was as if the generation the show had inspired recognized that a lot wasn’t going to change simply by being smug, but actually showing up collective civil disobedience. And their response was to say, “Hey I get it, but LOUD NOISES!” I’m beginning to hear some of the same attitude in Chapo Trap House, where they are right point out hypocrisy but reluctant to own their place in the modern media landscape as a source of news (see the self-own Dirtbag Left moniker). This should often be reminder that there is world of difference between actively participating in struggle vs. reacting to it.
