Stewart, who captured the American zeitgeist while zinging politicians and the media as host of the “The Daily Show” on Comedy Central for 16 years, joked about the big-name stars celebrating him whose careers he helped advance.Comedians from Colbert, who appeared by video link because he has COVID-19, to Samantha Bee, Steve Carell, and Dave Chappelle noted the influence Stewart had on their lives and comedic paths.
“Jon Stewart changed my life,” said actress Olivia Munn, a former correspondent on Stewart’s show. She then mocked Stewart for keeping his Emmys in a cardboard box. “Because that’s who he is: lazy and vaguely disrespectful.”“I know now that what I was really saying to you was the best job on television was working for you,” Colbert said. “I meant that when I said it in 2000. And 22 years later, I no longer mean that,” he said, drawing laughter from the audience.
In his acceptance speech, Stewart took a serious turn when talking about the future of comedy, making a reference to actor Will Smith’s onstage slap of comedian Chris Rock at the Oscars. Stewart said the Mark Twain Prize was a reminder that “what we have is fragile and precious” and said comedy is a bellwether for what is happening in society.
