Does anyone think he’s got the influence to make his own streaming studio?
I do, but I doubt he’ll actually do it
I think he's probably got the influence to start his own network.
Just imagine Conan, Colbert, Stewart, and Oliver on one podcast network.
They should go to dropout.tv
Ugh, please no... No more podcasts.
Tv network, though? Hell yes.
As of you don't watch both of these things from the same devices...
It's amazing to me that network TV even exists anymore...
We had a local FM radio host that was fired a few years ago. Started up a podcast immediately and it was way more entertaining and more lucrative than his radio show ever was.
I don't think it's a question of if he has the influence. He obviously does. There are few people who have earned the loyalty Stewert has, both in audience and, seemingly, in production.
The question is whether he wants to. I think it'd probably be too much for him to want to do now. Maybe he could just get others to handle it and just let it use his name though? It'd be great if he could establish something where people like him are allowed to speak freely without worrying that much about what the owners will do. Sure, they still couldn't piss off every sponsor, but they would be a lot more free.
