Hasan Minhaj was a frontrunner for the "Daily Show" hosting gig after Trevor Noah left. In the wake of a New Yorker story that fact-checked his stand-up, Minhaj didn't get the job. He joked that his not getting the gig paved the way for Jon Stewart to bring back the show's ratings. Minhaj joked that losing the gig paved the way for the late-night show's resurgence, according to Variety. Onstage at the comedy festival Thursday, Minhaj bantered with "The Daily Show" correspondent Ronny Chieng about losing the job.
