I don't even believe that you actually pay a cable tv bill- most pirates take a perverse pride in "cutting the cord" and sticking it to "the Man" by specifically not paying for tv under the theory that "tv sucks anyway" or the theory that the cable companies are ripping you off supposedly by not allowing you to purchase channels a la carte. In any case, assuming for sake of argument that you did pay, then you only paid to watch various tv channels that include among them John Stewart's show when you paid your cable tv bill. You didn't purchase an ownership interest in the John Stewart show, nor did you become John Stewart's business partner.
And you should be blocked from posting John Stewart on Youtube. Let John Stewart himself or whoever owns his tv show post it on *their* Youtube channel or their web site or their tv station partner or their own podcast or whatever they see fit to do and then reap the sales or advertising or other monetary and non-monetary rewards.
