Jon Stewart

On Monday’s installment of The Late Show on CBS, host Stephen Colbert flipped off Republicans for voting against the PACT Act, alleging they oppose health care for veterans solely to get back at Democrats for Chuck Schumer and Joe Manchin coming to a climate agreement. Naturally, Colbert omitted other, less malicious explanations.

The hysteria that has been boiling over since the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade was joined by comedian Jon Stewart last Thursday, on his The Problem podcast. And as you can see from the headline, things reached a fever pitch. According to this amateur legal scholar and bioethicist, the ruling meant that the government would be allowed to forcefully have your organs…

Comedy’s grand gala turns into an embarrassing display of chutzpah. Imagine gathering the biggest names in comedy and leaving out an existential threat to creative freedom. The minds behind the Mark Twain Prize organized just such an effort Sunday to fete Jon Stewart for its latest honors.

The Washington Post gushed all over Jon Stewart in the Sunday paper as "the country's moral compass during the Bush and Obama years," but something was missing: his recent rant against the media for ridiculously over-selling the Mueller probe.

The newspaper owned by the second richest man in the world actually claimed that the Internal Revenue Service needs— wait for it — more money. The Washington Post Editorial Board published an extraordinarily tone-deaf piece the day before Tax Day 2022 headlined, “The IRS urgently needs more money and staff.”

As NewsBusters documented a week ago, comedian Jon Stewart had joined the woke crusade in setting out to label ALL white people racist. And a key feature of his “The Problem With White People” episode was a disturbing three-on-one fight as columnist Andrew Sullivan was assailed by white leftist radicals accusing all white people of being just like the KKK. But in a Substack post on Friday,…

The week after releasing a more or less decent critique of the media’s “bulls***” and “jail-gasm” antics with the Mueller report in his The Problem With show, Jon Stewart squandered the goodwill. With the next episode dedicated to “The Problem With White People,” Stewart and radical leftist guests (all of whom were white) engaged in a type of self-flagellation to score virtue points…

As NewsBusters previously reported, comedian Jon Stewart dedicated an entire episode of his Apple TV show, The Problem With Jon Stewart to how the media overplayed their hand with the Mueller report and filled their coverage with “bulls***,” and effectively turned it into a “noose-tightened, closed-walled, family-style jail-gasm.” But there was more to the show as he brought on media…

On March 17’s edition of The Problem With Jon Stewart, the comedian set his sights on the media as he spelled out how their outdated use of ratings coupled with perverse incentives were driving them into oblivion. And to make this point, Steward focused on how the media was addicted to the largest story of the Trump presidency: Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into the…

Political commentator Steven Crowder tore former Daily Show host and multimillionaire Jon Stewart apart for preaching environmental progress but downplaying the cost —  the livelihoods of working people.

Jon Stewart doesn’t know which way is up these days. The far-left host is shocked, shocked by his own party's speech suppression. The former Daily Show host once soaked up media praise for his progressive spin on the news. Now, far removed from that gig, the same reporters now look at him curiously, like a relic from the past.

On Thursday, The Daily Wire’s Virginia Kruta reported: “Comedian Jon Stewart voiced his support for podcaster Joe Rogan during the latest episode of his own podcast, ‘The Problem With Jon Stewart.’” She pointed out how “Stewart explained that, in his mind, Rogan was not an ideologue — and that meant that instead of clinging to a position regardless of any new information, he was willing to…

New York Times economist Paul Krugman is rehashing a batty idea that former Daily Show host and comedian Jon Stewart mocked him for over eight years ago.

Some journalists really have no sense of irony. And Dan Rather is one of them. The disgraced former CBS Evening News host, who lost his anchoring slot after using faulty documents in a botched hit on then-President George W. Bush in 2004, is angry at Jon Stewart for his very public rant that, of course, Covid could have come from a lab leak in Wuhan. Writing on Steady…
