Columbia University’s own task force investigating anti-Semitism issued a 90-page report chronicling how threats and harassment towards Jewish students have increased since October 7 and how the school failed to respond appropriately. However, Comedy Central’s Jon Stewart alleged on Monday’s edition of The Daily Show that the Trump Administration’s demands to Columbia proved they “don…

If vandalism, arson, and domestic terrorism were your idea of a good laugh, then you would have got a kick out of The Daily Show Sunday. On his CNN show Smerconish on Monday morning, Michael Smerconish defied the media’s obsessive demonization of Elon Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), and called attention to how the anti-Musk fixation had, in…

ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel and Comedy Central’s The Daily Show host-of-the-week Jordan Klepper tried to rationalize all the anti-Elon Musk vandalism going on throughout the country. Kimmel insisted that arson and vandalism is bad but still portrayed them as what happens when you “celebrate firing thousands of people” and do “one, maybe two Nazi salutes.” Meanwhile, Klepper was less reasonable…

There is a tendency among some people to believe that, unlike other late night hosts, Jon Stewart goes after both sides. However, that is only really true if you consider going after Democrats for not being left enough to be equal treatment. On Monday’s edition of Comedy Central’s The Daily Show, Stewart ranted at Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer for not shutting down the…

Former CNN reporter Maria Ressa won a Nobel Peace Prize in 2021 for her “efforts to safeguard freedom of expression.” However, as the heads of the social media platforms move past their relationship with fact-checking companies and towards greater freedom of speech, she warned Comedy Central’s The Weekly Show podcast host Jon Stewart that America is sliding towards “kleptocracy.”

The Daily Show found religion on Thursday, sort of. While Comedy Central’s flagship show did not repent for claiming Jesus would approve of Transgender Visibility Day or that Christmas is “the queerest holiday of all,” it did send Desi Lydic to Michigan to meet with Episcopal priest Chris Yaw to hype his gun buyback program.

For the second Monday in a row, Comedy Central’s Jon Stewart used his time as host of The Daily Show to launch an attack against capitalism. While Stewart managed to keep his hand in one piece this time, he wondered to Princeton sociologist Matthew Desmond if capitalism requires poor people to function while Desmond urged the country to return to the economic policies of the 1960s.…

The Daily Show wrapped up the month of February on Comedy Central on Thursday by sending correspondent Josh Johnson out into the world to interview the masses and pretend that the Trump Administration getting rid of DEI initiatives means people can no longer say things like “civil rights” or “oppression” when talking about history.

Comedy Central’s Jon Stewart went on such a fierce anti-capitalism rant on Monday’s episode of The Daily Show that he literally gave himself a bloody hand as he smashed his coffee cup against his desk. Afterwards, Stewart would call capitalism “exploitative” and suggest Democrats adopt a new MANGIONE acronym before jokingly stopping himself.

Through the first four weeks of President Donald Trump’s second term, the late night comedians have told 761 jokes about him. By contrast, in 2021, during President Joe Biden’s first four weeks in office, the late night comedians told a total of 88 jokes about the new chief executive, according to an MRC study.

Former White House Press Secretary and current MSNBC host Jen Psaki joined Jon Stewart on Thursday's episode of Comedy Central’s The Weekly Show podcast to try to figure out why Democrats lost in November. On one hand, Psaki claimed the party’s focus on the potential end of democracy is partly to blame, but on the other, she couldn’t let such rhetoric go as she claimed “the threat of…

Comedy Central’s Jordan Klepper did not take the news that President Donald Trump has given Elon Musk and DOGE more power when it comes to hiring decisions. On Wednesday’s edition of The Daily Show, Klepper suggested that such a move would lead to the government hiring more Nazis.

Jon Stewart and John Oliver’s claim that America has entered its “monarchy era” under President Donald Trump may not have been the craziest moment from Monday’s edition of The Daily Show on Comedy Central. Instead it might have been New Yorker editor David Remnick’s claim that the country is at risk of turning into Vladimir Putin’s Russia because of the relationship between…

HBO’s Last Week Tonight host John Oliver made a surprise return to Comedy Central and The Daily Show on Monday to play the role of a British irredentist who was welcoming the U.S. to its “monarchy era” after years of checks and balances have allegedly been thrown away by Republicans in the Trump era.
