In honor of all the serious authors who make it on these ever increasingly popular parody news shows
The Daily Show is a Peabody and Emmy Award-winning half-hour American comical news television program produced by and run on the Comedy Central cable television network. It has been touted the sharpest political commentary shows on American television.
The Colbert Report is an American satirical television program on Comedy Central that stars comedian Stephen Colbert. It is a spinoff and counterpart of The Daily Show. The Report critiques politics and the media, but focuses on the commentary of Colbert's anchorman character, a right-wing "well-intentioned, poorly informed, high-status idiot" who is inspired by cable news personalities, particularly Bill O'Reilly.
