I think it’s plausible but I would like to hear it from Jon or another named source. When AppleTV+ was launching an anonymous source spread the rumor that Apple was dictating that all programming had to be G rated, which turned out not to be true.
These are just rumors for now from people who heard that was the reason but no one is on the record. It’s also worth noting his show had terrible ratings: It’s worth noting the show had completely shit ratings: https://www.thewrap.com/the-problem-with-jon-stewart-ratings-apple-plus/
Can somebody please tell Comedy Central to just pay this man to come back and get rid of the boring ass drones that replaced him?
Drones? There were multiple?
I would say “inb4 I actually liked Trevor Noah” but there are already a few of those. The Daily Show’s impact and wit died when Jon left.
Meh, I liked Trevor
Viewers did not. Viewership dropped 70% when Jon left.
I definitely want my representatives looking into this. The homeless, inflation and cost of living can wait.
That’s the big factor. The second factor is that nobody gives a shit about Jon Stewart and nobody watched his new show, this isn’t 1999.
This is why I canceled my Apple TV +
I haven’t watched it. Was this just Stewart going against genocidal China, or something deeper?
This is good, apple a US company shouldn’t be working to silence for the CCP.
On that note we need to also look into Tencnet and all the media/ gaming companies its currently influencing.
As an Apple fan and shareholder, GOOD. Apple is already diversifying their supply chain away from genocidal China - but this cannot come fast enough.
This was a stain on their reputation and should be embarrassing to any Apple fan.
Pretending like you’re the victim again. Nobody even knew that Jon Stewart had a new show. Heck i watched him for a long time when he was on Comedy Central. Does everything have to be China or Russia’s fault? In my experience, Americans are shitty already you don’t need any propaganda for that
Of course it’s the reason.
Did these lawmakers write a letter to every other studio? No one knows for sure what happened here, but we do know other studios edit films to appease Dictators with tiny penis.
