Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "The Daily Show" in English language version.
There's no denying that the show is smart and often funny, but in an annoyingly self-conscious way that constantly sets out to reaffirm its own moral and intellectual superiority. It has about it the glib, tinny ring of a college lampoon in which the sophomore writer's cleverness is deployed in service of nothing grander than impressing the writer's freshman friends. Bereft of an ideological or artistic center, the show is precocious but empty.
In a quote that was labeled a joke in the article, but which had none of the female members of the show's staff laughing, Mr. Kilborn called Ms. Winstead and other women on the show a derogatory name and then suggested that she liked him and would perform a sex act on him if he wanted her to.
Obama's interview, which aired between 11pm and 11.30pm, EST, pulled in 3.6 million viewers in the US – beating the show's previous high when the Democrat presidential candidate's wife Michelle appeared on October 8 by 600,000 viewers.
