  • Jon Stewart weighs in on the media’s overblown coverage of Trump’s criminal trial, from sketch-artist interviews to following his motorcade via helicopter, and how the airtime contradicts their stated goal to give him less airtime. Plus, Daily Show alum Jessica Williams surprises us with some joyful benefits of following the Trump trial story. #DailyShow #JonStewart #JessicaWilliams

      I would argue differently. I would argue that the 24-hour news cycle is merely a symptom of the worst thing ever to happen to broadcast journalism. I would argue that corporate ownership of the media - the root cause of the 24-hour news cycle - is the worst thing ever to happen to broadcast journalism.

    I am a conservative, but not a MAGA so called "republican" and I love John Stewart and others like Bill Maher. I don't get offended and often laugh during the segments. Wished more people, regardless of their team, wouldn't get so offended over politics and attacking each other viciously for their personal beliefs. Unless its a political stance endangering children that isn't a humanitarian stance.

      “Crazy/Radical Lib” here to say I appreciate your comment and agree wholeheartedly. We have lost sight of each others’ humanity- and in large part because of messaging from the media. I have always had an interest in news, politics, and world events, and even as young as 12 or 13, I liked talking to adults about these things and discussing current affairs, etc. It’s really hard for me to tune out the news, and part of me feels like it’s blasphemous, but it has all just become so toxic and divisive, it is doing the opposite of what it is intended for. The news should be educating people about current events, cultures, and historical interactions, rather than telling us how to interpret those things by shoving their own perspectives down our throats, as is happening today. I have had to tune it out for the most part, despite my urges, and I have had so much more clarity, sanity, and compassion since then. I think we all could use some media detox at times (news and social media!) if we want to be more understanding and humane as a society.

      They want trump to have a chance in the election because it gets them clicks. He has no chance, only in the eyes of the disingenuous media. They have to find content and trump is media gold. IF and this is big IF trump was to be elected, America is finished, and the media would be 100% responsible for it. It's like climate change, everyone knows it will be the end of humans, except for those who ignore it because they make money in businesses that are responsible for the majority of it.

      It's almost like a former president is on criminal trial for the first time, that would be pretty huge news if that happened...

      @@diamondlion47 Almost as if the whole world was watching to see whether we can ever trust America again, or are they done with democracy now? Nixon may have been a criminal, but as far as we know he never gave away sensitive intel about America's allies to hostile nations in exchange for money and compliments.

    John literally looks younger and more relaxed. I'm so glad he's back. Maybe we can get him to do two shows a week:Monday, Friday.

      Did you know former presidents aren't allowed to drive themselves once out of office? They can drive a vehicle on private roads. But not public roads. It's an actual law. And trump is a law abiding citizen.
