Daily Show, The



First Aired in 1996

The Daily Show (currently The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, also known as TDS) is a half-hour satirical news program produced by and run on the Comedy Central cable television network in the United States. The show premiered on Monday, July 22, 1996, and was hosted by Craig Kilborn, who acted as a news anchor. In 1999, Kilborn left the show and was replaced by Jon Stewart. Providing news-related comedy in the tradition of Saturday Night Live's "Weekend Update" segment, Michael Moore's TV Nation, HBO's Not Necessarily the News, and the long-running Canadian series This Hour Has 22 Minutes, The Daily Show reports on the foibles and hypocrisy of the real world with a satirical edge. The show has also developed a reputation as one of the sharpest political commentary shows on American TV.

In addition to news stories, The Daily Show includes interviews with celebrities, semi-celebrities, authors, and political figures. The political interviews have featured guests such as former Republican National Committee chairman Ed Gillespie, Senator Bob Dole, pollster John Zogby, 2004 Democratic Presidential Candidate Senator John Kerry, former Secretaries of State Madeleine Albright and Colin Powell, Senator Ted Kennedy, Senator John McCain, Senator Rick Santorum and former U.S. Presidents Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter.
