Abrupt End? Stewart stopped being funny nearly a decade ago and his show's politics turned to nonsense propaganda about the time that all other media did and all social media turned one-view permitted authoritarian censorship platforms.

Probably a combination of Stewart not being as popular plus discussing China and AI got him cancelled. But I'm glad Apple is being pressed on how China may be influencing their content.

ridiculous bullshit "they can do what they want with their programming but not if it's for bad motives" is not a take I want from my lawmakers

it reminds me of warner brothers scrapping their Wile E Coyote movie, now being investigated for it. Is it so hard to believe they decided it sucked so that's why they didn't want to release it? same with their Batgirl movie.
