    I can read between the lines. He wanted the Daily Show, but they didn't want to make him a permanent host. He's not about to wait around and see what happens next. He's appreciative of the exposure and he'll move on.

    Whoever is Roy's manager is pretty genius. Everybody is gunning for Roy to get this job, Jordan Klepper talks candidly about him, Jon Stewart does a rare appearance of support, other correspondents clear the way for him.
    And then Comedy Central comes out and gets cute.
    Him leaving the show has created this huge void as far as I'm concerned. Knowing he's not there makes me want to watch the show less. And I know I'm not alone.
    By doing this, hopefully they see a very strong "you only miss something when it's gone" kind of feeling. And he gets the appreciation he deserves. Right now, he's not, but I see it approaching that way regardless.

    What I'll really miss is his Daily Show Beyond The Scenes podcast. There you not only got his funny-as-hell side, but more of the depth of his intelligence, empathy and journalistic skill. I hope the Daily Show comes to it's senses. If not, Roy gon be alright and take his magnificence to a new, better platform.
    Love ya Roy and thanks for coming to Seattle.
