When Jon Stewart steps down from "The Daily Show" later this year, an era of late-night TV on Comedy Central will come to and end.
Stewart hosted "The Daily Show" for nearly 17 years, starting in 1999. When he leaves, he'll be the highest-paid late-night host, commanding a salary of $25-$30 million per year.
