Filed under: TV News

This has been a historical week for Jon Stewart. First, around 200,000 people showed up for his Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear on the National Mall this weekend, and now comes news that his 'Daily Show' has topped usual late-night stalwarts 'The Tonight Show' and the 'Late Show' for the first time ever.

According to Deadline, Nielsen ratings show that Stewart bested Jay Leno and David Letterman in the coveted 18-49 demographic for the month of October -- the first time any series other than 'The Tonight Show' or 'Late Show' has ever topped the list.
