I feel like a news/politics comedy show such as The Daily Show needs an American voice to avoid the Piers Morgan effect. As soon as he's critical of leadership it's going to be easy to write off his voice as that of an uninformed immigrant steering America toward his foreign ideals.

Could be partly true, plus, because of his age, it's hard to see him going up against Bill O'Reilly like Stewart can do and show what an ass BO is.
I hope he does well, it's not like the writers are all leaving the show.

"Uniformed immigrant"? FYI, a lot of foreigners tend to be more knowledgeable and well-versed in American history than even some Americans are. Give me a breakbeing an expatriate, he would have to have already beefed up on his knowledge of American history and current affairs. And I find it interesting that you didn't call John Oliver an "uninformed immigrant", since he's British and he's been critical of leadership,too. And American news is broadcast around the world, so a lot of foreigners usually alread111cy know what's going on in the U.S. because they even get here. And America, may I remind you, is a country of immigrants started by immigrants, anywaykeep that in mind,toothat' something that us Americans always tend to forget real quick,for some reason.

You've completely missed the OP's point.
He didn't call TN "an ignorant immigrant" but rather he inferred that TN may be called one once he makes an controversial comment.
