Jon Stewart is entering the “No Spin Zone” again.
“The Daily Show” host will be the guest interview during tonight and tomorrow’s editions of “The O’Reilly Factor.”
Fox News Channel promises that O’Reilly and Stewart will chat about topics including President Obama, the current political landscape and media bias.
It’s the second time that Stewart will appear on “The O’Reilly Factor.” He last appeared in September 2004 while promoting his book, “America, the Book: A Citizen’s Guide to Democracy Inaction.” O’Reilly previously appeared on “The Daily Show” three times, most recently in November 2008.
Fox Plans More ‘Idol’ W/O Simon

Fox is near a deal to order more seasons of “American Idol” — with or without its most popular judge, Simon Cowell.
The network’s current contract with “Idol” producers 19 Entertainment and FremantleMedia extends through the end of the 2011. But the network is working on a new deal that includes three more seasons of “Idol,” though that number could change.
An announcement is expected to demonstrate Fox’s commitment to its top-rated series, even as “Idol” faces its biggest challenge yet.
The “Idol” franchise has been rocked by rumors that Cowell will depart the show after the upcoming season as he prepares to bring his hit UK music competition series “X-Factor” to the United States.
Cowell’s brother Tony announced Tuesday on his weekly podcast that Simon will leave “Idol” at the end of 2010. The move could have a double impact on “Idol” — the loss of a key personality to the series, and the addition of another music competition show on Fox that may lead to fewer “Idol” viewers.
But before anything is finalized at the network, the “Idol” judge still needs to sign his new contract with “Factor” owner Sony. Once that’s out of the way, Sony will allow Cowell to make a deal with Fox to bring “Factor” stateside.
