Stewart, Colbert, ink new deals with Comedy Central

LOS ANGELES (AP) - The late-night lineup is shifting on TV though not at Comedy Central.

The wire channel has sealed new deals to keep Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert.

Comedy Central pronounced Tuesday which in apart agreements, Stewart concluded to horde "The Daily Show" through June 2013 and Colbert will hang with "The Colbert Report" until the end of 2012.

The two shows air in the eleven p.m. Eastern to midnight block.

The contract extensions were announced the week after Conan O'Brien pronounced his home after the reduced stint at "The Tonight Show" will be wire channel TBS. He will horde the late-night show later this year which will contest with Stewart and Colbert.

O'Brien left NBC after the network sought to move him and "Tonight" to make approach for Jay Leno's lapse to late night.
