Feb 10th 2015

Feb 10th 2015

Feb 10th 2015
19

Feb 10th 2015

      NBC News will not offer Stewart the Nightly News anchor desk.
Feb 10th 2015
23
it is not going to happen.
Feb 10th 2015
22
they approached him to do meet the press
Feb 10th 2015
27
Meet the Press != Nightly News.
Feb 10th 2015
33
Go rewatch how he handled 9/11
Feb 10th 2015
29

Feb 10th 2015
34
      You're really going too hard on this lol
Feb 10th 2015
36
           a few yrs back an anchor resigned from NBC Chicago's news dept
Feb 10th 2015
37
                I don't think you can compare Stewart and Springer though
Feb 10th 2015
38
                     great.
Feb 10th 2015

Allison Stewart is on ABC nightly news, tho. So it's not impossible.
Feb 10th 2015
41
1. Allison has a news background.
Feb 10th 2015
43
      Now that I think about it, it would actually be a step backward
Feb 10th 2015
44
           if it's about views, surely more watch at 7 o'clock than 12?
Feb 11th 2015
60
Beyond that, why would he want to?
Feb 11th 2015
54
      I agree
Feb 11th 2015
55
      exactly. it sounds more like his worst nighmare
Feb 11th 2015
67
they'll pursue him, but i'd be seriously shocked if he even entertained....
Feb 11th 2015

Am I the only one who's not a fan?
Feb 10th 2015

after only a season, oliver has surpassed stewart for me
Feb 10th 2015
42
I think he has become getting a bit lazy. Punchlines are often
Feb 10th 2015
45
I like him but I don't think he's particularly funny any more.

Feb 11th 2015
