Comedy Central Star Colbert Testifies Before Congress--In Character
In an unusual appearance today before a House Judiciary subcommittee, a well-known television satirist testified on immigration reform–in character.
The “bloviating right-wing talk show host” persona that Stephen Colbert has honed on Comedy Central “resembled a surreal version of Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, if Mr. Smith were a comedian playing a bombastic TV commentator fielding thorny questions about immigration reform from members of Congress,” reports the Los Angeles Times.
