The Daily Show with Jon Stewart and The Colbert Report have
attracted much interest in recent years from popular audiences as
well as scholars in various disciplines. Both Jon Stewart and
Stephen Colbert have been named on Time magazine's list of the most
influential people in the world. The ten essays in this
interdisciplinary collection explore the issues engendered by the
popularity of entertainment news, including the role of satire in
politics, the declining level of trust in traditional sources of
media, the shows' cathartic or informational function, and the ways
in which these shows influence public opinion. It is a vital
addition to the scholarship on the collision of pop culture and
politics.
