Times are clearly changing on “The Daily Show.” Weeks ago. Jon Stewart confirmed that he was going to be leaving the show later this year to pursue other opportunities. This comes after Stephen Colbert departed “The Colbert Report,” and it really was not that long ago that John Oliver left for “Last Week Tonight” on […]
We feel like it could be a long search to figure out the replacement for Jon Stewart on “The Daily Show,” but there is one thing that we know already: It will not be Jessica Williams.
