The Daily Show With Jon Stewart - seniai norėjau parekomenduoti

Name: Jon Stewart
Role: Executive Producer, Host
Joined: 1999 - Present
Biography:Jon Stewart is considered one of America's top social and comedic voices. From his anchor chair on Comedy Central's "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart," "Stewart has breathed new life into a show that hadn't even seemed to need it," said The New York Times. Since taking over as the host of "The Daily Show" in January, 1999, Stewart's presence has seen higher ratings and awareness for himself, as well as the network. As host of "The Daily Show" Stewart has interviewed such luminaries as former President Bill Clinton, Senators Hillary Rodham Clinton, John Kerry, Barack Obama, John McCain, John Edwards and Bob Dole and such celebrity icons as Tom Cruise, Tom Hanks and Bruce Willis.Since arriving in 1999, Stewart and "The Daily Show" have received 24 Emmy® Award nominations and won 10 times. These include winning for Outstanding Writing for a Variety, Music or Comedy Program five times (2001, 2003, 2004, 2005 and last year in 2006) as well as Outstanding Variety, Music or Comedy Series for the past five consecutive years (2003-2007). Jon himself has been nominated for Outstanding Individual Performance in a Variety or Music Program four times (2002, 2003, 2005 and 2007).In 2004, "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart" was also honored by the Television Critics Association by winning for Outstanding Achievement in News and Information, beating out traditional news shows in the category. Jon has been honored three times by the Association for Individual Achievement in Comedy (2003, 2005 and 2006) and the show won in 2003 for Outstanding Achievement in Comedy. In 2001, "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart" also received the prestigious Peabody® Award for excellence in its "Indecision 2000" campaign coverage and again in 2005 for "Indecision 2004."While it may be the conventional route for a stand-up comedian to sign a book deal and expound on their early days inside dingy comedy clubs, Stewart has gone the other way. His debut book, Naked Pictures of Famous People, (Rob Weisbach Books) is a collection of humorous what-if essays. Stewart's latest book (written with the writers at "The Daily Show"), AMERICA (THE BOOK): A Citizen's Guide to Democracy Inaction, was released in 2004 through Warner Books Publishing, and immediately topped The New York Times Best Seller List and stayed at #1 for 18 consecutive weeks. It was also ranked #1 on the best-seller lists in The Wall Street Journal, The Los Angeles Times, USA Today and San Francisco Chronicle.
