Stephen Colbert shmoozes about Jon Stewart

Back



"My wife knew Jon before I knew Jon. She was an actress in New York. And he was Jon Liebowitz. And he was this quiet guy. And he sat in the corner. And he wasn't particularly funny." [Stephen Colbert]

I think it's as he points out, this ironic attachment is key to the Colbert character. The Daily Show setup plays to the idea of Jon as the last sane man in a media-frenzied world. The show uses the news team format to highlight Jon's detachment from the madness & his position as a spectator/incredulous commentator. Colbert IS the news, the megalomaniac deciding what is &isn't newsworthy based on how it effects him. To add a news team to that would I think dilute the egotist slant of the satire.

Just watch Colbert on Whose Line Is It Anyway to see how effective he is at improvisational comedy.

G W Bush flat out refused to meet with the 9/11 commission by himself. He refused to be interviewed under oath or have any transcripts or recordings made. What was he hiding? What was he afraid of? The truth is out there, but the official 9/11 story lacks credability. WE must research and be open to the possability that we have been lied to.
