The court jesters [1] like Stephen Colbert and John Oliver can make deep cuts while avoiding reprimand.

This is part of the reason I think that faux news shows like the Colbert Report have been so successful.

He's a comedian and you hear far worse things coming out; I mean Colbert said far worse thing and I don't see people screaming and kicking at his door.

It's filmed with an audience (which Colbert regularly speaks directly to).

Although both the Daily Show and Colbert have now wrapped up.

We've been featured on Good Morning America, the Colbert Report, The New York Times, Boston Globe, and hundreds of other news sources.

In turn, she was interviewed on The Colbert Report.

This reminds me Steven Colbert interviewing Thomas Piketty.

Given the popularity of news-as-entertainment such as The Daily Show, Colbert Report, or Last Week Tonight, it would seem theres room for an online edition of the same schtick.

Really makes the Colbert Report replacement (The Nightly Show) look terrible by comparison (started around the same time but to be fair LWT is once a week while TNS is 4 days/week).

Stephen Colbert made segment about gold, along with a mocking commercial asking folks to diversify their portfolio (with Women and Sheep...) but the idea that shiny metal holds value better than a magazine full of 5.56 and a rifle seems a little off.

It could be arbitrarily complex (e.g., some followers might only click a link if two people they're following like it, unless Ashton likes it, in which case they will never visit it, but if Colbert likes it, that will override Ashton).

Did he say that he is using the same "just a comedian" excuse Colbert and Stewart used hide from criticism?

If you think that Clarkson is doing a Colbert-like performance, you've just got the wrong end of the stick.

Colbert jokes about the short work weeks and two-months vacations in France.

Daily Show/Colbert are so incredibly dumbed down and mainstream though.
