Trevor Noah to Replace Jon Stewart as Host of "The Daily Show" 
---------------------------------------------------------------


 
Comedy Central has announced a successor to Jon Stewart, who is stepping
down this year as host of "The Daily Show." Trevor Noah, a 31-year-old
comedian from South Africa, will be the new host. He debuted on the show
last year with the line, "I never thought I’d be more afraid of police
in America than in South Africa."
