According to another report (in "TV Newser"): "...Stewart will remain on the channel through mid-2015, while Colbert’s new contract takes him through the end of 2014. The duo last signed contract extensions in 2010, which at the time kept Stewart on through mid-2013, and Colbert on through the end of this year. The new deals are effectively two-year contract extensions." ----- Original Message ----- From: PGage To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, July 25, 2012 1:17 PM Subject: Re: [TV orNotTV] Fake News Anchors Extend through next Midterm Elections

Every other late-night comedy show is down in that category over a year ago." -- TV or Not TV .... The Smartest (TV) People!
