Behind the Scenes at “The Colbert Report”

Here’s an Associated Press report on my favourite Sunday School teacher and figurehead of my 11:30 p.m. ritual, Stephen Colbert. The Colbert Report recently aired its 400th episode, and on June 16th, Colbert will be given a Peabody award, the highest honour for distinction and acheivement in American broadcast journalism — not bad for a “fake” news show whose stock in trade is mimicking Bill O’Reilly and other real fake-journalists.

Here’s an interesting tidbit from the article: he feels more comfortable in a sweatshirt than a suit. “I just look like a suit,” he says, “which is the best part. The best part is, boy, do I look the part.”
