Olivia Munn, the newest (and most female) addition to The Daily Show staff, went down to Arizona to learn about photo radar, immigration law, and hypocrisy. While I was wary of Munn after watching her first few awkward appearances, she feels much more relaxed and confident in her first assignment. It certainly doesn't hurt that she has some solid material to work with.

Yes, she's still a little stiff. And, yes, she does kind of pull off a bad Stephen Colbert imitation in her second interview. But what TDS correspondent hasn't begun his or her career ripping off the great Colbert, inarguably the most influential figure (aside from host Jon Stewart, of course) in the development of the show's unique voice and style. I think she's going to do just fine.
