Daily Show – From the desk of Adam Thomas

Jon Stewart, pictured here, has transformed from simple comedian to sharp social commenter. With his show, The Daily Show ( Appearing “daily” Monday – Thursday) he has slowly become the best interviewer on cable since Larry King and Bryant Gumbel.

For visual proof, simply take a look at The Daily Show website or the Hulu, both linked in this post, for some interesting interviews with some interesting character, ranging from the light hearted ( actors) to the intellectual (authors).

What gives Jon the leg up on many of the other pundits on cable? His interviews show his knowledge and research capability. He obviously comes to the table with the background to ask the tough questions, while not holding punches ( i.e the Newt Gingrich interview [will put up later]).

If you think the Daily Show is little more than shtick and low brow humor, think again.
