We get it Jon: only old people watch network news

by Bob Sassone, posted Jun 12th 2009 2:03PM

Katie Couric was the guest last night on The Daily Show, only it was less an interview than a "let's see if Jon can think of some more ideas for The CBS Evening News." OK, it was funny, but at some points it seems like he doesn't really care what she's saying he just thought of another joke and wants to get it in. "News Bingo" is a funny idea though.

His joke wasn't that only old people watch network news, it was that only old people watch CBS Evening News. Which is, well, kind of true. Couric herself said the median age of viewer was 62 years old. That's insane.

Given that they know each other, they most likely had an agreement beforehand that he would just go with the jokes because she couldn't talk about specific pieces she was working on.
