Colbert Hosts O’Reilly

Brian Zick

O'Reilly acquitted himself pretty well; no knock-out but Colbert won on points. Audience: Boos. O'Reilly: That's booing, that's Stewart, that's Jon Stewart in that plaid shirt. Colbert: No no. We have a restraining order against Jon Stewart. He's not allowed in the building. O'Reilly: He's jealous. He's jealous of you Colbert. Colbert: The man is a sexual predator… Bill, you have no idea what that's like. Norm at onegoodmove has the video. update: Norm has posted the video of Colbert's appearance on the O'Reilly show (which actually preceeded O'Reilly on Colbert). O'Reilly has post-interview analytical commentary by Bernard Goldberg and Jane Hall, the clueless pomposity of which serves as a splendid example of unintended comedy.
