I'm a big fan of Jon Stewart, his show is generally of a very high standard (excluding the guest comedian slots). But back to the article, he does actually talk to them rather than advertise them blindly.
Juggling Hard Disks over concrete floors ends in tears 5% of the time.

Don't see this show enough I reckon (never see it.) but loved the John Bolton/Doris Kearns Goodwin videos at the end..

There was some statistic that said most young Americans now get their regular dose of news from The Daily Show instead of CNN, Fox, etc.  Which is a good thing, when you compare this show to something like Bill O'Reilly on Fox.
 
Do a search on YouTube for "John Stewart" and "Crossfire" which is a truly great interview, and shows not only how funny he is but also how direct and sharp when it comes to politics and the media.
 
I have The Daily Show stuck into my Sky+ for recording every day - great stuff :)
If I wanted you to understand I would have explained it better
