Default Colbert meets Papa Bear
On "The O'Reilly Factor," O'Reilly portrays a ... um, he hosts the top-rated program in cable news.

Just look at my Avatar to see Colbert on the Daily Show, while eating a banana!

Actually only on the Colbert Report. Stephen won't be acting on the O'Reilly Factor.

Just watched the interview (O'Reilly Factor one). Turns out Stephen did act like he does on his show. O'Reilly questoned Stephen on how Jon Stewart felt that about him being more popular. Stephen responded by saying "I don't know. We don't talk."

Colbert has been better than Jon Stewart for about a year now.

Colbert started out a little weak, but he really grew into his role. He is hysterical! Stewart is just really funny.

GP, Colbert is not a real conservative. He just plays one on tv.

I thought this was about George Halas. I'm dissapointed that they didn't bring him back from the dead. I'm also confused why O'Reilly would be Papa Bear when bears are such a big threat to this nation.

Wow. It's like you actually don't realise how wrong you are.

The Colbert Report is excellent satire. Colbert

Stewart is amusing, but Colbert is definitely better.

Colbert makes fun of conservatives, even more than Stewart.

yeah, except colbert isn't self poking fun, because he isn't conservative. He assumes the role to copy O'Reilly, which is a funny show, or sad, depends if you live in this world or some other world.

I saw the show on youtube this morning and my hat is off to Colbert. He slammed O'Reilly over and over again.

Imitation is always the best vehicle for criticism, as well as being the most biting.

I think you're simply confused because it's funny, not strident.

It takes a lot more talent to do irony well. That's why most "fake news" doesn't bother.
