The streaming conglomerate wiped the Comedy Central website this week, along with MTV News and and multiple other outlets

We have a pretty good guess as to what Jon Stewart’s main Daily Show discussion topic will be during his weekly appearance on Monday, and it’s not tonight’s debate . This week, Paramount made the infuriating and existentially terrifying decision to wipe out two decades of archival material across sites like Comedy Central , MTV News, TV Land, CMT, and more. That’s a genuinely unfathomable number of hours worked and information gathered just...

You can find some more content on YouTube, but that channel also doesn’t extend back any further than 2016. The people who created the archive aren’t happy. “Gotta bring back the bootleg DVD man. This shit ain’t right,” former correspondent Roy Wood Jr. wrote on Twitter/X. Per The Hollywood Reporter, former Comedy Central president Doug Herzog reposted Wood’s statement on his own Instagram story, along with a facepalm emoji.
