Viacom: Trevor Noah Launches Comedy Central in Dubai

Gulf News: On Saturday, “Daily Show” host and stand-up comedian Trevor Noah helped launch TV channel Comedy Central HD in the Middle East. Comedy Central HD, created for the region, will be found on pay-television network OSN. Noah, who speaks six languages, joked that he will provide Arabic stand-up: “That’s really what the plan is here, is for me to take over from the Arabic-speaking comedians, and try to just put it all into one comedian. It will be cheaper for the network and appeal to everybody.”
