Ferguson Backs Stewart for Late Show Gig

Late Late Show host Craig Ferguson is backing Jon Stewart to take over for David Letterman, if Letterman leaves CBS when his contract is up in 2010.

"I think Jon should replace Dave if Dave decides to go," Ferguson told Broadcasting & Cable last week.

"I think Dave should stay, I think he ain't done. But if Dave is finished, I think Jon has earned the job."

It seems funny to many, including certain writers at TheCelebrityCafe.com, that Ferguson supports Stewart, and not himself, for Letterman's current job.

Ferguson's support is evermore interesting because Stewart is only signed with Comedy Central through 2010, making him a free agent the same time as Letterman, as well.
