Applause isnt always an agreement thing.

Applause has moved its way into stand up comedy. When someone makes a joke that isnt all too funny; meaning not funny enough to laugh at, people clap. Watch stand up, there is lots of clapping.

I dont think the audience is agreeing with the racist joke George Lopez just said, either.

George Lopez is a social critic as much as he is a comedian. The applause does not denotate laughter, laughter does.

I'm saying the applause is usually a pity thing at jokes. The joke isnt funny enough to laugh at, but you feel bad, so you applaud the person for trying.

If you look back, all in all, I'm agreeing with you about the Daily Show.

But you missed that part, obviously.
