Comedy Central Reups With Jon Stewart And Stephen Colbert, Duo To Stay Through At least 2014

(snip)
“The Daily Show” remains one of late-night TVs most successful programs, delivering more viewers in the adults 18-49 demographic (1.4 million on average) than any other late night show. Entertainment shows typically sell the 18-49 demographic, as opposed to news programs, which usually target the slightly older 25-54 demo.
