The presenter of the late-night “Daily Show” has come forward to help his 25 member crew with their payments. The show airing in Comedy Central had left few of them unpaid due to the ongoing lockdown.
Meanwhile, Trevor has decided to support them until they reboot the production. Reports stated that: “These are the people who have been on the show with Trevor from day one and help him put on the show. Trevor is personally covering their salaries until the production business opens again. He respects his crew tremendously and feels it’s only right that they get through this together.”

In the latest show, he spilled some info on the reasons why big firms grabbed COVID-19 funds and small scale businesses couldn’t. He continued that the Treasury Department gave the options to the banks to choose on firms that will get a sum of $349 billion for COVID-19 loans for small scale businesses.
But sadly everything was emptied in just 2 weeks and he said: “The banks did what banks do, which is screw over the little guys.”
He went on to explain the scenario with some thoughtful examples and yes Noah talks only facts.
