The Daily Show And Colbert To Be Pulled From Hulu

In what can only be a bad thing for online video service Hulu and just overall crappy news as Viacom has announced they will pull The Daily Show and The Colbert Report from Hulu in the next week and stream only stream them on the shows websites as well as the Comedy Central site.

Obviously Viacom feels it can get more money from advertising on its own sites then it will get with Hulu and this is not good for us the fans who have enjoyed getting our shows streamed from the popular service Hulu.

Are things changing?  Is this just the beginning of shows being pulled from the service?   What are your thoughts?
