| Launched in the summer of 1996, "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart," led by Time Magazine's "Best Talk Show Host," has taken America by storm. With its spin on the day's news and newsmakers, the program has conquered the very field it set out to parody, winning multiple Emmy® and Peabody® Awards. Jon's intrepid team of correspondents and commentators -- including Samantha Bee, Jason Jones, Aasif Mandvi, John Oliver and Rob Riggle -- take the show out of the studio and brave the wilderness we call America, with field pieces and on-the-spot coverage of important news events. Whether they're skewering the day's breaking news, investigating the people, places and events that make America what it is, or ranting and raving on politics in their award-winning Indecision election year coverage, "The Daily Show" has earned its title as The Most Trusted Name In Fake News. The biggest newsmakers--from political heavyweights to real news journalists to Hollywood hotshots--make the seat across from Jon their first stop, giving the most hilariously informative interviews anywhere.
