Old news. This happened yesterday and The Daily Show will be back tonight.
 
At the end of Tuesday's show, a somber Jon Stewart mentioned that the young man had died (without giving details) and said some nice words, then dedicated the "moment of Zen" to him - it was a scene from Dynasty with Joan Collins and Linda Evans catfighting on a small pool, followed by a picture of the boy with "in memory of" and the Dynasty theme. When that faded out, the short closing credits ran over a darkened studio with no music.

Thank you for bringing this up. The other poster here claimed this was no big deal, old news, everybody knows, happens all the time. I would have responded, but after reading some of his other posts, I decided he's not worth the space!
 
And Your Point?

Umm...so it happened the day before...so??! Did you notice the dateline? DECEMBER 12th? Actually, I noticed this did not get that much attention, so not many people knew about it.
