‘The Daily Show’ News: Jon Stewart Talks 9/11 First Responders

Jon Stewart has returned to "The Daily Show," but he was set to be on the other side of the door.

According to CNN, the long-time host of the television news show got back after signing off on Aug. 6 to report an important matter to the previous anchor. He talked about a bill that would give health care to the first responders of 9/11.

New "The Daily Show" host Trevor Noah asked Stewart if he were there to take the show back, as the former had heard about it in American TV. According to the report, Stewart said that he had come on to give some attention to the law, which reportedly calmed Noah's fears and made Stewart realize that he no longer had his own show to do.

According to Stewart, the law is about the provision of health care to the first responders who were injured or became ill after the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001. In return, Noah could not identify the reason the Congress had not worked on the law's permanence.

In September, Stewart petitioned over the bill, according to CNN. The comedian writer has been reportedly fighting for the 9/11 first responders' act for years. In line with this, he asked the viewers of the show to contact congress on social media platforms with the hashtag "#WorstResponders." 

Stewart continued to share his thoughts. He said that people forgot, with all the talk now about terrorism from the World Trade Center to San Bernardino, the one common link to all was the first people on the scene had been first responders. He added that the message it sent to the first responders was unacceptable to him.
