Jon Stewart: The voice of my generation — and yours

I’ll give you two hints:

  • Younger than George W. Bush.
  • Older than Justin Bieber.
  • Forty-ish, you say? Forty-five, maybe?

    Nope, 52.

    And isn’t it incredible that someone that age — or, anyone of any age, really — could become the countercultural voice of multiple generations, from the millennials to the boomers.

    –

    When you hear the crowd moan, that’s because they realize, too, that he was the voice of so many generations.

    And, thankfully, his was a voice that didn’t take itself too seriously.
