Though I thought we might be to blame, The Atlantic Wire is probably the proximate cause. They posted about the story earlier today. http://www.theatlanticwire.com/entertainment/2012/12/jon-stewart-almost-quit-daily-show/59855/
The Daily Show transition does raise a question for me - how many other late night programs had a similar issue? It's usually seemed to me that in late night a new host comes on with a new staff. Host-staff friction seems more of a thing in morning show changes.
