Jon Stewart

TV Land won’t be the same Without Jon Stewart’s face, For he’s the one man on the air That no one can replace. With other newsmen slinking off Because they’ve lost our trust, “The Daily Show’s” lead anchor Leaves all others in the dust. When even those who’ve winced at jokes He’s made at their expense Express remorse at his departure, Sadness must commence. They’ll fill his seat and surely He’ll do something else real soon, But his announcement stuck a pin In everyone’s balloon.

You the woman! You fill each stanza perfectly and somehow always seem to wrap things up so succinctly. Enjoyed.
