Jon Stewart to Host Oscars

From a story in the NY Times:

Billy Crystal is on tour. Steve Martin is prepping a movie. Whoopi - we're really not too sure what's up with her.

So, in an act of either pure inspiration or complete desperation, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has asked Jon Stewart, host of a popular fake news program on Comedy Central, to be the host of the movie industry's most prestigious event, the Academy Awards ceremony.

Mr. Stewart, 43, was appropriately humbled by the invitation. "As an avid watcher of the Oscars," he said in a statement, "I can't help but be a little disappointed with the choice."
