The Daily Show with Trevor Noah

As an International student and a apolitical person, I have never watched any TV news program that talk about politics before. To be honest, I am really not a person who will sit down and watch news on TV or on my laptop. Instead, I usually see, or more precisely, skim the news articles on my phone, which is the quickest the way to update myself with all the new information. So this was my first time to watch a TV news program so seriously. However, The Daily Show was not as serious or boring as I expected. I watched the show of October 22nd which is about John Harwood. Personally, I am not interested in political issues at all but the way Trevor talked about them attracted me to watch more. He started the Daily Show in a really humorous tone. And he played a clip of Hilary Clinton hearing in congress, which was edited to be pretty funny. And he kept making fun of several politicians such as Hilary Clinton, Trey Gowdy, Jeb Bush and Ben Carson. Also, the talk between Trevor Noah and John Harwood was really interesting: John Harwood seemed that he had no stairs and graces at all during the whole talk. And Trevor kind of made joke of him but John was not angry at all and he even laughed while Trevor was playing joke on him. This is what I found that is really distinguishing from the politicians in China. The politicians in China are always so serious and make people feel like they never laugh like a normal person who has feelings. It is impossible for them to go to a comedy show like the Daily Show to be made fun of. Therefore, I think the Daily Show actually delivers a good impression on American politicians because of its informal but interesting form. I would definitely become more interested in politics after watch it. In addition, I think shows like the Daily Show are good for democracy since they let people speak out their inner overlapping sound and politicians don't really get angry at what they said because that's people's voice. Therefore they seem to be closer to the society. So from now on, I would binge-watch The Daily Show for sure just like how I watch 2 broke girls.
