Jon Stewart Is Awesome - Gives Salary To Striking Writers - PIC

The writers’ strike is on, and late night TV is the first to go. Fortunately for some writers, they have bosses like Jon Stewart, who is paying his writers’ salaries.

“In a show of solidarity with his fellow scribes, [Jon Stewart] has told his writing staff that he will cover all their salaries for the next two weeks, according to a well-placed source. He has also vowed to do the same for writers on The Colbert Report.”
