In the
years (four!) that I've been making sites about The Daily Show, I've
noticed so many flubs, misspellings, and inaccuracies in Daily Show
articles that it's made me go b.s. insane. So, a handy dandy guide on
Daily Show:
The
Host:
The
host of the Daily Show since January 11, 1999 is Jon Stewart. NOT JOHN
STEWART, but Jon Stewart. It's short for Jonathan Stuart Leibowitz (Note:
Most sources incorrectly list Jon's middle name as Stewart. We have
confirmed that Stuart is the correct spelling.)
The first host of the Daily Show (from July 22, 1996 to December 18th (ish)
1998 was Craig Kilborn. (not Kilbourne)
