  1. Some people are saying he is getting fired, Source pls

  2. Well I dont "watch" the show cuz its on youtube and I dont have a tv… how accurate are ratings anyway? Old facts who don't know how to use the internet will watch fox news on TV

  3. 2.5 mil to 200,000.
    Go woke. Go broke.

  4. I'm South African and was a great fan of Jon Stewart, watching the Daily Show back then every opportunity I got…recording episodes on my VCR back in the day…. even I stopped watching the moment Trevor took over…couldn't bear to watch him. If it wasn't for his army of writers, he wouldn't have lasted that long

  5. That s good news, wokism isn t funny nor paying

  6. tbh people aren't watching as much tv as online anymore

  7. Good riddance! Trevor Noah is not even funny and he is a woke puppet by the Democrats.

  8. Funny how ratings can fall 92% and they're like "BUT IT'S DIVERSE!"

  9. OR, CC tried to exchange a "Hillary Clinton" for a "Barack Obama"?

  10. Talentless hack. Who wants a foreigner dissing America every night? Maybe they can deport him now…

  11. hahahahaha go woke, go broke, good riddance

  12. He's not American, folks can't relate to him as they do John stewart, that's the real reason

  13. BUT IT’S MORE DIVERSE!!!

  14. Trevor Noah only made idiots laugh, he was the daily show's pewdiepie

  15. It was horrible from the start

  16. I am happy to see this racist person step down. He mock Indian accent in his ridiculous stand up comedy.

  17. Trevor Noah gets millions of views on YouTube. This has nothing to do with how good of a host Trevor was and it has everything to do with people just not watching TV anymore. Everything is about short clips in YouTube now nobody wants to stay up to watch it on live television. 🤷‍♂️

  18. Trevor Noah should have not taken a job, but continue working on his own standup comedy

  19. I think reduction of audience from 2.5 million to 300,000 is almost 1/8th dip and that can't be explained just on the basis of audience tuning to youtube, nor it can be offset by racial profiling of audience and calling it diverse. I think audience showed how tired they were of is unfunny commentary, ranting on and on about Trump even after he was long gone. You can always churn numbers in someway to show you the highlight, but if you are democracy you have got to take that message that nearly 2 million people voted you down, so it doesn't matter whether it brought 12k (87k vs 75k) audience of color. It just indicates that he was universally unfunny and even after ranting about racism, less than 25% of his audience was of color, the one he was rooting for. That's how I feel Hollywood has got it wrong. World needs to address racism, but it needs to acknowledge that now is as good as time as any in terms of inter race relations, and though we could always get better, there bigger problems and challenges facing the world, just not identity politics.

  20. Here's the real numbers: -50.59% share value.
    Execs at VIACOMCBS INC. should have snatched the nipple from his mouth long ago. I give him credit for milking them for so long. LOL

  21. I could barely understand what she was saying over the incredibly loud and annoying background music that was completely unnecessary!! WTF?? 😡

  22. He was a nice guy, but just wasn't funny. He's obviously very intelligent and may better serve as an interviewer who happens to be funny but I don't think he had the right venue on the daily show.

  23. Nightly viewership down for all late night shows is it ABC??? Then why is Greg Gutfeld pulling numbers above what Jon Stewart himself used to average? You stupid woke acolytes

  24. Wait wait… what the hell does having a "diverse audience" matter compared to 80% of viewers tuning the show out? ABC threw that useless stat out there like it somehow made up for Trevor's inability to maintain a built in audience. People really do worship intersectionality doctrine as a new religion. Pathetic

  25. TREVOR NOAH IS A PROPAGANDA TOOL USED BY THE EVIL DEMOCRATIC PARTY TO SPREAD HATE AND ANTI AMERICAN RACISM HOW DOES THIS MAN EVEN HAVE A SHOW? 🏴‍☠️

  26. The comparison about John Stewart and Trevor Noah’s viewership is unfair. Time has changed, and judging the popularity through tv ratings is not an authentic and accurate assessment now of people’s interest. TV is no longer indispensable. There are so many platforms for entertainment. The Daily Show with Trevor has over 10 million subscribers and he’s one of the most watched on YouTube.

  27. It’s hilarious that someone would even attempt to blame his ratings on younger peoples shorter attention spans- of course said in a more vague/ cushioned way. As if it’s not that he was a remarkably unfunny, dim, obvious puppet for the establishment- or to put it simply- a blind diversity hire who didn’t deserve the role. To think young people who watch are dumb enough to find the hidden humor in his show, and that the other part of young people don’t watch don’t see right through the establishment propaganda and strait up bullshit is a clear sign that whoever is making these decisions at Comedy Central is completely senseless and has sunk the ship beyond any hope of saving it.
    Congrats on writing off anyone that called your blow hard bullshit out, and against common judgement, tanked one of the highest if not THE highest watched nightly show during John’s tenure as host. It’s a disgrace, truly.
    The only hope to ever rekinder the show would be to bring in someone that’s ACTUALLY funny and someone who’s not a partisan hack that calls out bullshit on both sides, just like it was when the show was a hit. If any of this isn’t clear to anyone making decisions here, hell.. idk how you’d go outside without a helmet and water wings! 😅

  28. I'm going to miss Trevor. So much talent and class that this world needed!

  29. he was the good
    … but like Don Lemmon and all the other black hosts he had a timer on him … plain talk

  30. He was fired and they allowed him to say he was resigning. To much woke crap that is dead now.

  31. Just look at his ratings to see why Trevor Noah really got fired.. I mean let go from the Daily Show. "Comedians" like Colbert better watch out!

  32. Well there was a pandemic so u knw got damn wtf the numbers were goin to go down so fn stupid lol

  33. You can’t spin this news any better abc lol

  34. Oh the short clips are preferred by the younger viewer?

    Right. I’m sure that’s exactly why.

  35. GEORGE STEFHANOPOULOS IS ON HIS WAY OUT ALSO…FUNNY HOW IT ALL BALANCES OUT.

  36. look at the mainstream media lying again to protect their own..

  37. hes unfunny, untalented, a complete hack.. the only thing hes good at is obeying his liberal masters like a dog…

  38. This is getting some right-wing attention…

  39. SERVES HIM RIGHT. A big mouth from Sev Afrikar

  40. Hahaha they miss Trump. Go woke, go broke
