Jon Stewart Addresses Why His Name Appears in the Epstein Files: I Am Offended’

As more and more evidence from the notorious Epstein files make their way into the public spotlight, Jon Stewart is addressing his name briefly appears in the email list centered around the disgraced financier.

In the opening moments of Monday's episode of Comedy Central's The Daily Show, the 63-year-old comedian addressed the elephant in the room by pointing out that his name is indeed mentioned in an email correspondence between Epstein and film producer Barry Josephson.

    “Of course, to get ahead of the story, I am also in the files,” Stewart said on Monday's episode. “We all searched our names, right?”

    Rather than personally participating in the email thread, however, Stewart's name was simply highlighted as a potential narrator for a project centered around a director and stand-up comedian Stewart theorized to be Woody Allen.

    “You all know which Woody, right?” Stewart said. “It’s the Epstein files — it ain’t Harrelson or the cowboy from Toy Story.”

    “Jeffrey Epstein always had his finger on the pulse of what America was clamoring for in 2015!” Stewart deadpanned. “But Barry Josephson, thinking like the out-of-the-box television professional that he was, pitched this idea. This is true, quote: ‘Make a true biographical experience with his stand-up being the capper. Somebody like Jon Stewart could host/narrate the biographical part.'”

    Feigning surprise, Stewart joked, "Excuse me? I am offended! Somebody like Jon Stewart, or Jon Stewart? My point is, do I have the offer or is this an audition?”

    Elsewhere in his monologue, Stewart turned to the repeated mentions of both Elon Musk and Donald Trump in the recently declassified Epstein files, specifically opening up about the commander in chief's response to the files' release.

    “Look man, we always knew that the people at DOJ releasing these documents weren’t on a fact-finding mission, they were running interference,” Stewart said. “And the guy they’re running interference for seems very satisfied with these results.”
