I noticed this too, reminded me a little bit of Bill Maher's "angry old guy" transformation. I think JS legitimately is more arrogant and self righteous. I think part of it is the DGAF everyone goes through as they get older, and part of it is pent up frustration from watching the MSM decline. I'd contend that his usual DS bit - mocking the MSM - wouldn't work today because the veneer of rehearsed professionalism is gone, and news openly doubles as media. Lacking his biggest tool in the toolbox, he centers on himself...which makes for a less interesting show, which is probably why they're canning the show (the 'creative differences' is a cop out - those always disappear when ratings are high enough).
