(Radio.com) Jon Stewart takes on tough groups with his biting wit and fair critiques four nights a week, but he might have met his match in One Direction's fan base. After making a jab at the enthusiastic demographic, they struck back, and struck back hard, creating the hashtag #TheDailyShowGoneTooFar which trended for the entirety of last Friday (Sept. 26). They were not happy being likened to a terrorist group, and Stewart felt their wrath.
