Does this mean no more Colbert Report?

kinda blows my mind that mayor mcoxycontin doesn't get that colbert's character is schtick.
Among a lot of other things.
Who's to say he doesn't keep it? I think it would work awesomely.
colbert himself already said he won't be hosting the show in his colbert report character
Just read that......kinda sucks.
the source i read didn't indicate that he'd be retiring the character itself, just not using it on late night.
I think he will do quite well. He's damn funny and creative. And if it pisses off Rush, then its a win/win.
Do any of you really watch any of the late night shows?
I watch Stewart and Colbert...not religiously, but often.
In terms of the ABC/NBC/CBS late night shows....not really. Occasionally Conan or Fallon, but barely.

Teh Colbert does everything john stewart is famous for but SOOOOOOOOO much better. It's going to suck to lose that show. There's no way he's doing both.

Um, pretty sure she was Canadian.
Greatest American satirist since Twain.
Okay glad to know I am not the only one not watching it then. If I watch anything its Kimmel on Hulu but its a long time ago I felt like turning it on. Just end up putting comedy on Pandora on.
The flap over this is pretty hilarious.Does this mean no more Colbert Report?

1) Conservatives are not funny (at least not intentionally)
2) They don't have a very good sense of humor about not being funny
3) Apparently, they don't really understand blackface either.

4) he's less making fun of any particular "person", but an amalgamation of what conservatives stand for & believe in
Which is the exact same thing as wearing blackface. DUH!

not being a tv watcher I have no idea who he is. I do find it funny to see peoples reaction whe they moan about a show going off the air after a multi year run and they find out that I don't know who the actors are let alone knowing that the show even existed.
Ethnicity != beliefs
Cosmos on Fox, check it out....Most television sucks.
Every once in a while some doesn't.

Every week yo.
That's the other 50% of my television consumption.
Shlt I'm old enough to remember watching the original as a wee lad.
Fortunately for that ericstrt6 luddite the internet has all of Colbert's work saved for eternity... or as far as I can tell it does.Most television sucks.

Eric - do yourself a favor and Google "Colbert Munchma Quchi" and prepare to

i made a somewhat similar point on facebook.
colbert is mocking the beliefs and ideologies that define conservatism.
the whole irony of the comparison to blackface is that conservatives are using their beliefs to suppress others, not the other way around.
