After scuttling a months-long search for a new host, the Paramount Global network said it had enlisted Jon Stewart, who presided over the late-night mainstay’s most popular era, to serve as its host on Monday nights throughout the 2024 election cycle and to run the program. He is expected to oversee the program through 2025. Various “Daily Show” correspondents will host the program Tuesday through Thursday nights, and Jen Flanz, the current executive producer, will continue her duties on the show.
He was doing his own thing until Apple killed his show over fears that he would talk about China.

There’s ten gallons of that shit on YouTube already.
Most content on YouTube doesn’t feature the comedy stylings of Jon Stewart
Quite a few professional comedians have YouTube content. Some of them even do bits on China
Dave Chappelle is not Jon Stewart.
Doing Great Man Theory, but for comedians.

It’s not quite that simple. Stewart wanted to do a show critical of China, Apple said, no, and Stewart walked. Since this was during the negotiations for his next season of his show, they mutually agreed not to renew for the next season.
Yes, this is shitty of Apple to put a limit on him like this, but it wasn’t so hostile as it might seem. 
You made it sound pretty simple.
lol, i elaborated.
I hope it’s his first episode back.
I think it would be great if he could have Chris Chappell from China Uncensored on Youtube (https://youtube.com/@ChinaUncensored) as a guest on that episode when it happens.
