Jon Stewart Interviews Imprisoned Newsweek Reporter Maziar Bahari
Over the years, there have been a lot of people on The Daily Show whom I would not be surprised to see arrested. Of all the bigfoot hunters, porno librarians and Lou Dobbses, there was bound to be some imprisonment eventually. But I don't think I ever thought someone would be put in jail simply for being on The Daily Show, which is basically what happened to Iranian Newsweek reporter Maziar Bahari. Just to be on the safe side, Doris Kearns Goodwin ought to lawyer up.
The original segment that Bahari appeared in can be found below.
The Daily Show airs Monday through Thursday at 11pm / 10c.

Hey, Jason Jones, I got a list of folks I'd like to see you appear with!
The Daily Show takes too much credit. It is only appearing with Jason Jones that gets you thrown into a hellhole and tortured for the rest of your life. Just ask Samantha Bee.
Wow! Being on the Daily Show results in being thrown in jail and tortured!? Hey, Jon, how about an interview with Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice and Powell?
