John Stewart leaving daily show?

[TheFarseer]

My sister just told me that - said she heard it from a couple places. Has anyone else heard that? It's hard to believe. I hope it's not true.

1. Maybe she means Kilborne (sp?) leaving Late Show? (eom)

7. Which reminds me..

Do you know why Kilborn is leaving?

[kikiek]

10. He wants to go behind the scenes again as a writer. Assuming my

memory is serving me correctly.

13. His last day on the 'Late Late Show' is Friday

Good thing too. Kilbourn sucks.

Made me think better of Tom Snyder.

14. Aww that's how it is spelled. Yah it didn't seem very good to me either.

9. hadn't heard that

is he leaving by choice? I can't imagine his show is doing all that well, but probably better than the last host, Tom Snyder or what was it? Now I'm curious, can't remember

11. Here's a link to a news article about it...

2. He just signed on for 4 more years

Earlier this year. Not sure where she got her info.

3. He is the Daily Show. I bet she has him confused with Craig Killborn

I am sure I spelled it wrong probably is Kilborne.

4. Maybe he is falling Letterman?

That wouldn't be so bad?

5. Jon Stewart just recently signed a six(?) year contract

He said that lots of people want to go out on top, however, he will stick with TDS until it runs into the ground (paraphrasing, but you get the idea). MKJ

6. Viacom owns CBS and Comedy Central

Could be he is going to follow Letterman. Maybe double duty> :)

8. He's got a baby to feed - he's not going anywhere

At least I hope not

12. There's a rumor that the Late Show wants Jon Stewart

but I don't know if he wants the Late Show.
