bahsome is called jon stewart of egypt allows a quick point of reference but i know jon stewart will say he's no baasome yew set i'm a huge fan but when it comes to reach, influence and risking your life baasome wins. baasome weekly show broke bare yearn political show in egypt filmed fluent a live audience and it was the most viewed television show in egypt with 30 million viewers per episode and at its peak. point of reference more viewers than donald trump has twitter followers.

boston is often called the jon stewart of egypt. don't get me wrong i am a huge jon stewart fan but when it comes to reach, influence in risking your life bassem wins. the weekly show broke many barriers. filmed in front of a live audience and it was the most viewed television program in egypt with 30 million viewers per episode at its peak. that is more viewers than donald trump has twitter foowers. and on top of all of that his show was produced under an authoritative regime under the middle of a resolution. so we do have nearly enough time tonight john for me as an idol. to be in the same sentence it's phenomenal. to inspire a lot of people. how many common it shows came out of that powerhouse numbers our nothing. the only reason we have more numbers if you have a couple of millions you are amazing. that even changed in the '90s. we've a lot of confidence. just to be in the same sentence. as a greatest, i can ever get. it was inspiration. how was it is ithen they shut up on your show. the jon stewart of egypt i planted that. i wa

we don't have -- and same thing true of jon stewart. he had under a million viewers when he was on the cover of "time," i think it was. they know how to do this stuff to make people seem much more important than they are and to make people seem much less important. a show like blue bloods with conservative values, no press, and that went about the minister with the seven children, i can't remember what it's called, seventh heaven. no press. one of the most popular shows on tv for years. they have an echo that actually reverberates, makes everything louder than it is. >> but then still the shows are on the air and people watching them. they have long runs. so they're successful. you have people like patricia caviezel able to get a primetime show after playing jesus and people said with mel gibson. are they exceptions? >> no, it is simply that we don't have the infrastructure to play them out. there was a movie by the cohen brothers "hail caesar" which was conservative porn. i have no idea where those guys stand, but it was an amazing ant

french avolution and it called for logical grounding of women's rights, picked up in the 1860's by jon stewart, who purchased -- petition the house of commons and that petition was rejected and at that point, in 1866, several women's suffrage organizations are formed. when eventually our british women given the right to vote? >> it is difficult to say. , it is not greatly known that women in the united states, some of them had voting the federale amendment is ratified in 1920. as early as the 1890's, states like colorado, where we are now, wyoming was the first, many states in the west start to grant women the right to vote. it is said that perhaps with some satire that the states are being settled and need to but manyomen to join, states start adopting suffrage at the municipal level, sometimes women are granted school suffrage to vote in school board elections, but the bulk of the country, behold the country gets suffrage in 1920 when the 19th amendment is ratified. in britain, women are granted the right -- women of 30 years and older who have property are granted the right to vote in 1918.

through jon stewart. ( laughter ) >> stephen: they said that jon stewart-- >> was an a.c.i.a. recruited you to work for the c.i.a.-- >> to bring down the country through satire. ( laughter ) >> stephen: and you and i both know-- you and i both know, that's not true. laugh >> of course. >> stephen: because that would mean i'm probably an agent, too, because i've known jon longer than you have. >> yeah. >> stephen: and the idea that jon is recruiting us is a terrible idea. >> do you think he's actually in an "animal farm?" ( laughter ). >> stephen: i'll tell you what i love. my favorite thing about you being arrested-- if you'll pardon me having a favorite thing. >> please. >> stephen: i'm a huge fan of you being arrested. my favorite thing about you being arrested is, when you were arrested you turned yourself in, and a crowd of people went with you and this is, again, after you wore this hat, mocking the president. you were arrested and you showed up... ( laughter ) wearing the hat. ( cheers and applause ) that's the real deal. >> thank you. >> stephen: that's a comedian. >> t

like a lot of people said that john jon stewart was the yoda of cable news.t to be daisey ridley, can i be daisey ridley, please. -- i think i nailed it. and you know what they say about the sits, there is much anger on the dark side. >> you are either going to stop talking or i will cut your microoff. >> cut his mic. >> cut his mick off. >> shut up, shut up. >> you don't know anything. >> because they have a right to be in this country. >> their entitlement. >> what do you want to yell for. >> because you're lying. >> what is it your faulted, oh no, millions of dollars, it wasn't your fault, come on, you could you ard say the truth. >> what do you mean cow ard. >> you are a cow ds ard. >> trevor: damn, i dob know if he ever should have had a tv show but i do know he would have fit right in in that imaginary black restaurant, i will tell you that much. he would have been perfect. you're the cow ard, you're the cow ad, where is my food, bleemp [bleep] i will do it live! so it is sad to say but fairwell extremely old friend. but before you go, bill o'reilly, on

a little different, when comedians would attack him, they attacked him in a very gentle way and jon stewart said obama is going to visit israel and the manager in which he was born. that's alluding to his define inspiration and making fun of him and with trump the jokes are rougher and can see a president not wanting to go there especially a few years ago at the white house correspondents dinner president obama did a comedy routine and was helped by judd a toe in this routine that really listered then not candidate donald trump and then private citizen donald trump, and i thought he put on an ok face but he was unhappy in an uncomfortable moment and now he's president and i can understand why he didn't want to revisit that circumstance. host: thanks for waiting, independent caller. caller: good morning. thanks for taking my call. just came out of a nursing home/rehab after my fifth joint replacement. the first four were all treated the same, because i was alone i went from surgery, three days in the hospital and then went when i got teaching in o.t. and ended up leaving before -- they would

so, bill, i invite to you come live in a mountain cabin with me and jon stewart. it's fun. ike it. we've got an animal sanctuary. jon and i milk the goats. and soon, i hope, we'll be milking you. ( laughter ) stay strong, papa bear. oh, god! is this really happening? >> stephen: that's it. it's over. end of an era. the end of an era. it looks like o'reilly may be out of a job. but, luckily, he still has his publishing empire. he's the author of "killing lincoln," "killing kennedy," and his latest book, "killing my career." ( laughter ) ( applause ) but, listen, in case-- don't forget, in case you're a fan of sexual harassers who are still on tv all the time, we still have trump. because today the new england patriots visited the white house. it's an honor to be invited to the white house. which is why so many patriots turned out for the occasion. oops, sorry, that's from two years ago when obama was president. jimmy, can you add the photo from today? yikes. looks like tom brady deflated the entire team. still, though, still, still a bigger crowd than his inauguration. ( chee

it kind of is except for the fact that it's somewhere between comedy central -- it's the old jon stewartshow where you're watching about politics thinking, is this real, is not not real? because what the president did was so overtly political, trying to say that susan rice committed a crime. i mean, it's not as explosive as his tweet, you know, a month ago at this point, saturday morning, 6:30 in the morning saying that the president himself wiretapped but it's pretty close. now, at the end of the day, you know, we know now that on capitol hill especially, they are going to now look into how of these identities came up in the public arena and whether there was any culpability inside the white house at all. but we don't know that and, again, going back to several things that the president said in that interview in "the new york times," now we're almost 100 days in. we know that he's not going to change but we also know, based on the restructuring he did today, based on the comments that he's made about syria, he's learning. this is one important thing he has not learned. you've got to be

he's appeared on "the daily show" with jon stewart and the "national geographic" channel, cnbc. he also holds degrees in economic communication and earned a master of philosophy and international relations for the university of cambridge. please join me in welcoming scott miller to the national archives. [applause] >> i thought what i would do it today this talk about the background behind this book, how he came to write it, introduce you to the characters along the way. describe the final product and not time for questions and many comments that you have afterwards. i will readily confess that i did not set out to write this book. i was originally very good in the early days of americans involvement in the vietnam war. that'll fear it has always an interest for me. really right after the war, the french involvement in china and it also seems like a subject that hasn't been done to death already. i began to do a little bit of research and i happened across these two characters. there they are. those are the dulles brothers. allen dulles is in the light-colored jacket. he was dir

back in 2015, president obama came under fire after it was reported that "the daily show" host jon stewarthe white house twice. he was blasted as allegedly secret meetings to which stewart responded. >> i guess if you look at it, then it's not a secret. like if you looked at it, i went through the normal entrance like everybody else. and i told my mom i was doing. she told her friends. and her friends said, still not a cardiologist. but then the point is something is not a secret just because you don't know about it. >> and a lot of people did know about it. obama may not have liked the criticism over who he met with. but obama ensured the critiques kept coming. he was the one releasing the logs at the white house. it was something new he did more than past presidents. it wasn't enough for some people. donald trump, you might remember, campaigned on the anger that washington was full of secret dirty meetings and deals that he alone would end. >> hillary clinton did government favors for those giving her family and her foundation massive amounts of cash. >> hillary clinton's pay-for-play co
