This biography profiles Jon Stewart, television's most incisive
deliverer of the fake news. As the host of The Daily Show with Jon
Stewart, he has attracted a vast audience that sees him as one of
the few credible sources of cultural critique TV. As comfortable
and adept at interviewing Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf,
U.S. President Barack Obama, activist Al Sharpton, or political
commentator Bill O'Reilly as he is chatting with Angelina Jolie,
Bill Gates, or Denis Leary, Jon Stewart has emerged as one of the
hottest television personalities and most powerful media icons of
the 21st century. The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, currently Comedy
Central's longest running show, has launched the successful careers
of Stephen Colbert (host of The Colbert Report) and Steve Carell
(star of The 40 Year Old Virgin and the popular television series
The Office), and an appearance on Stewart's half-hour segment is
coveted by both political figures and Hollywood celebrities as one
of the most important places to be seen. Well-read, impossibly
well-versed in current events, charismatic, and self-deprecating,
Stewart has successfully garnered a broad-based following of
viewers, from teens to senior citizens. Ideal for students and
general readers alike, this biography profiles the always
controversial, always prepared Stewart, including his early life,
his first break in comedy, and his meteoric rise to joining an
elite group of well-known and often-quoted media personalities.
