The Daily Show
The end of an era.
They need to cancel the show when he leaves and let someone make a new show to replace it. The Daily Show is just too full of Jon Stewart's style for anyone else to take the helm and make it their own.

Trevor Noah is the new host.
And apparently he's not a big fan of Jews or women.

Apparently, they've been turned down a lot. Poeller, Schumer, and...someone I'm not remembering (a guy) have all turned them down.
Also, I disagree. If the guy is anti-Jews and anti-woman, he's probably not the correct choice. I mean, I realize it's a left wing show, but I think that's too far left wing.

None of the tweets bugged me until the one about Israel and peace. I think there's a point where you have to ask what's comedy and what's real.
I mean, would you be shocked if he came out as anti-Israel? And if not, why would you be shocked if he was anti-woman?
Where's your proof?

He's clearly not.

My proof is the tweets. I read them all. I assert that if you found any of those offensive (yes, even the one about Israel you mention) then you are probably someone that is looking for a reason to be offended.

If there's no realism in your comedy it's probably not funny.

I got no issue with it.

Then you are 100% wrong. I have no interest in Israel one way or the other, and I had never heard of Trevor Noah prior to this announcement.
I wasn't "looking for a reason to be offended", nor was I offended by his tweet, I just think it's a bit interesting. If a lot of his humor hits the same subject over and over, there's probably some truth to it. Ask a comedian.

I can't see any major party in the Middle East seriously thinking about a peaceful solution allowing any kind of coexistence among the various groups over there. I don't think they're serious because they don't think it's possible. Guess they'll have to spend another couple centuries blowing the fuck out of each other.
