Via the Daily Beast, Sarah Silverman kicks off her week as guest host on The Daily Show with a Fox montage:

On her first night as guest host of The Daily Show Monday night, Sarah Silverman told viewers that she was “a little nervous” so “did that thing where you picture the audience naked, which is perfect because now I’m nervous and horny.”

The comedian decided to introduce herself in “the most Daily Show-y way possible,” playing a shockingly extensive montage of Fox News pundits calling her “aggressively unfunny,” and an “absolute fool” among other insults.

“These right-wing people really f*cking hate me!” Silverman said in response. “I mean, what am I, a gender-neutral bathroom over here? What am I, a Starbucks cup that just says ‘Happy Holidays’ over here? What am I, a grown woman with an opinion? Oh yeah, that’s probably it.”

Good luck, Sarah! So many talented women vying for this gig is a refreshing change.
