Talk:The Daily Show

I'm moving this to the Daily Show I think, since that's what the article is really about... 01:37, 19 September 2010 (UTC)

John Oliver hosted The Daily Show with Jon Stewart.
Using the techniques I picked up from John Hogue, I have made a deduction:


 * You can add the "h" in "Jon" because of the silent "h" in Latin. This leaves us with "John".
 * We remove the last "t" from "Stewart" as you can always add or remove a letter.
 * The "l" and "t" are similar, so we can substitute one for another. We not have "Slewar"
 * "e" and "a" are both consonants, as are the "i" and "e", so those can be swapped: "Sliwer"
 * We can chop a dash of the "w" to get a "v": "Sliver"
 * This is almost like "Oliver" so that's close enough.

 * ...and don't forget that "you can always outright change one letter" - thus turning the "S" in "Silver" into an "O" in "Oliver". Thus; the connection has now been scientifically proven. By the, uh, stars. All in all, some mighty fine sciencing you've done here, Carpet! Let's get you a book deal? :D Reverend Black Percy (talk) 19:10, 7 December 2015 (UTC)

 * A nice suit? Have you seen him on HBO lately? Avengerofthe BoN (talk) 00:50, 8 December 2015 (UTC)

Trevor Noah backlash
Are we going to add anything on this? There was a lot of backlash against minorities "replacing" white roles with stuff like Fantastic 4's Johnny Blaze, Trevor Noah succeeding John Stewart and the Miles Morales thing.Keter (talk) 19:29, 12 December 2015 (UTC)

Daily Show criticized Antifa unjustly
Recently the Daily Show did a 'hit piece' on Antifa which was innacurate, most likely because they were concerned with ratings and wanted to appease the pro-Trump demographic.

Problem is the show equating Antifa with ISIS is inaccurate, since Antifa is primarily a self-defense organization with a mission of defending against fascism, while in reality Neo-Nazis have much more in common with ISIS since their motive is invasion and oppression of others, much like ISIS. (Personally, I even believe that ISIS is largely spawned from white invasion in the Middle East, but that's another story).--24.89.35.17 (talk) 03:10, 6 October 2017 (UTC)
