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. With 13 seasons of "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart," Jon's intrepid team of correspondents and commentators 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.
