''The Daily Show'' (also known as ''The Daily Show with Jon Stewart'' from 1999 until 2015, and ''The Daily Show with Trevor Noah'' as of 2015) is an American late-night talk and news satire television program, which airs each Monday through Thursday on Comedy Central and, in Canada, The Comedy Network. The half-hour-long show premiered on July 21, 1996, and was hosted by Craig Kilborn until December 1998. Jon Stewart then took over as the host from January 11, 1999, to August 6, 2015, making the show more strongly focused on politics and the national media, in contrast with the pop culture focus during Kilborn's tenure. At the time of its conclusion, Stewart's version was the second-longest-running program on Comedy Central after ''South Park'', and won 22 Primetime Emmy Awards. Describing itself as a fake news program, ''The Daily Show'' draws its comedy and satire from recent news stories, political figures, media organizations, and often aspects of the show itself. During Stewart's tenure, the show typically opened with a long monologue, relating to recent headlines and frequently featured exchanges with one or more of several correspondents, who adopted absurd or humorously exaggerated takes on current events against Stewart's straight man persona. The final segment was devoted to a celebrity interview, with guests ranging from actors and musicians to nonfiction authors and political figures. The program is popular among young audiences, with organizations such as the Pew Research Center suggesting that 74% of regular viewers are between 18 and 49, and that 10% of the audience watch the show for its news headlines, 2% for in-depth reporting, and 43% for entertainment, compared with 64% who watch CNN for the news headlines. Critics have chastised Stewart for not conducting sufficiently hard-hitting interviews with his political guests, some of whom he may have lampooned in previous segments. Stewart and other ''Daily Show'' writers have responded to such criticism by saying that they do not have any journalistic responsibility and that as comedians their only duty is to provide entertainment. Stewart's appearance on the CNN show ''Crossfire'' picked up this debate, where he chastised the CNN production and hosts for not conducting informative and current interviews on a news network. == Spinoffs == ''The Colbert Report'', a spin-off of ''The Daily Show'' starring former correspondent Stephen Colbert, premiered on October 17, 2005, and ended on December 18, 2014. Another spin-off series hosted by contributor Larry Wilmore entitled ''The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore'' premiered on January 19, 2015, replacing ''The Colbert Report''. Former ''Daily Show'' correspondent John Oliver, who also guest-hosted the show in the summer of 2013, started ''Last Week Tonight with John Oliver'' on HBO. Samantha Bee, the longest-running ''Daily Show'' correspondent, starts up a talk show ''Full Frontal with Samantha Bee'' on TBS in January 2016. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Daily Show」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
