After making a serious pitch for autism education during Comedy Central's 'Night of Too Many Stars' benefit, PopEater reports that Stewart joked, "If you went on radio and said the Jews control the media...you may want to hold on to your money."
Then Stewart added that all Sanchez has to do "is apologize to us, and we'll hire him back."
David Letterman made a surprise appearance at the event, and got into the Sanchez action too, reports Gossip Cop, quoting the late night host as saying he was "helping Rick Sanchez clean out his desk."
The Night of Too Many Stars airs on Comedy Central October 21.
