Heres my complete guess: Viacom negotiations with youtube over legit licensing of their TV shows fell through recently. Demanded that youtube remove all their shows.
Is Comedy Central a Viacom property? If so then the Daily Show comes under this. Youtuber dont actually have all the amazing copy-detection technologies in place, so they implement really crude attempts to purge their database of viacom content, and your show is a victim because its got 'The Daily' in the title. Like I said thats just a guess and I may of got all sorts of facts wrong, but the timing means its a possibility? If theres no reason to ban you deliberately, I reckon the above heavyhanded incompetance is a possibility.
