Jon Stewart
America’s most trusted newscaster works in a Manhattan studio near the Hustler Club. Indeed, Jon Stewart’s house of newsy satire, The Daily Show, is on the same block as Larry Flynt’s emporium of naughty skin. ”We’re kissing cousins,” says Stewart, 47, ”which was also the name of a great pictorial Larry Flynt ran in 1988.” Yes, the fake news anchor does sometimes play the role of quip-proffering comedy ”monkey” — but who can forget how famously he declined it during his contentious 2004 appearance on CNN’s Crossfire? When considering the foibles of his ”real” news counterparts, the two-time Oscar host works up a genuine outrage that, during his decade-long stint at The Daily Show, has turned it into far more than just a ”Weekend Update”-style yukfest. —Clark Collis
