THE CASE OF THE DAILY SHOW WITH JON STEWART (TDS) by ELENA-DANIELA (DANA) NEACSU A Dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-New Brunswick Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Communication, Information and Library Studies Written under the direction of John V. Pavlik, Ph.D And approved by ___Michael Schudson, Ph.D.___ ____Jack Bratich, Ph.D.______ ____Susan Keith, Ph.D.______ ______________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey MAY 2011 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Political Satire and Political News: Entertaining, Accidentally Reporting or Both? The Case of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart (TDS) by ELENA-DANIELA (DANA) NEACSU Dissertation Director: John V. Pavlik, Ph.D. For the last decade, The Daily Show with Jon Stewart (TDS ), a (Comedy Central) cable comedy show, has been increasingly seen as an informative, new, even revolutionary, form of journalism. A substantial body of literature appeared, adopting this view. On closer inspection, it became clear that this view was tenable only in specific circumstances. It assumed that the comedic structure of the show, TDS ’ primary text, promoted cognitive polysemy, a textual ambiguity which encouraged critical inquiry, and that TDS ’ audiences perceived it accordingly. As a result I analyzed, through a dual - encoding/decoding - analytical approach, whether TDS ’ comedic discourse educates and informs its audiences in a ii manner which encourages independent or critical reading of the news. Through a multilayered textual analysis of the primary and tertiary texts of the show, the research presented here asked, “How does TDS ’ comedic narrative (primary text) work as a vehicle of televised political news?” and “How does TDS ’ audience decode its text?” The research identified flaws in the existing literature and the limits inherent to any similar endeavors.

  • Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler Are Cracking Up. Sitting Across From
    Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler are cracking up. Sitting across from each other in a booth at a Hooters restaurant in Lawrenceville, Georgia, the longtime friends have reunited here on the set of Blended, their third romantic comedy together, which opens with the scene they are currently shooting: a blind date between two recently single parents that goes from awkward to I- never-want-to-see-you-again in less time than it takes to share a plate of hot wings. Thanks to some mildly un-chivalrous behavior on the part of Jim, the schlubby sporting goods salesman played by Sandler, Barrymore’s character Lauren, a tightly- wound business owner, is forced to hurriedly chug his French onion soup, which she winds up spilling all over her pearls and prim white blouse. Sandler and Barrymore manage to keep straight faces as she deftly dribbles the soup down her chin and soaks her shirtfront, but as soon as director Frank Coraci calls “Cut!” the actors erupt into laughter. They’ve shot multiple takes, each more entertaining than the last, but Barrymore wants to keep going, to try and make the bit even funnier. “Drew’s comedy chops are at an all-time high,” says Coraci, who directed the duo in their first project together, the smash 1998 hit The Wedding Singer. (He also directed Sandler in his breakout success, The Waterboy, and the 2006 comedy Click.) “The Wedding Singer was Drew’s first straight-up comedy, and over the years she’s really honed her comedy skills. She has become a pro that can go toe-to-toe with Adam, as you can see in Blended, where she has to do a lot of heavy lifting in terms of the physical comedy.” A few months later, hanging out with a reporter in Sandler’s office, he and Barrymore are riffing on each other’s jokes and finishing each other’s sentences with the ease of two people who truly get a kick out of each other.
