Opinion

The Colbert Report ( /kolˈbɛr rəˈpɔr/ —the t is silent in both "Colbert" and "Report") is a Peabody Award and Emmy Award winning American satirical television program that airs from 11:30 p.m. to 12:00 midnight Eastern Time Zone (North America) each Monday through Thursday on Comedy Central in the United States and on both The Comedy Network and CTV in Canada. In the United Kingdom it airs at 11.00 p.m on FX each Tuesday through Friday. It stars political humorist Stephen Colbert, a former correspondent for The Daily Show .

The Colbert Report is a spin-off of and counterpart to The Daily Show which, like The Daily Show , critiques politics and the media. It satirizes personality-driven political pundit programs, particularly Fox News' The O'Reilly Factor . The show focuses on Stephen Colbert, a fictional anchorman character played by Colbert. The character, described by Colbert as a "well-intentioned, poorly informed, high-status idiot", is a caricature of televised political pundits.

The Colbert Report has been nominated for four Emmys each in 2006, 2007 and 2008, two Television Critics Association Awards, and two Satellite Awards. It has been presented as non-satirical journalism in several instances, by the Tom DeLay Legal Defense Trust, and following Robert Wexler's interview on the program. The Report received considerable media coverage following its debut on October 17, 2005, for Colbert's popularizing of the term "truthiness", which dictionary publisher Merriam-Webster named its 2006 Word of the Year.

The Report has had cultural influence in a number of ways. In 2006, after Colbert encouraged viewers to vote online to name a Hungarian bridge after him, he won the first round of voting with 17,231,724 votes. The Ambassador of the Republic of Hungary presented Mr. Colbert with a declaration certifying him as the winner of the second and final round of voting, though it was later announced that the bridge would be named the Megyeri Bridge. In 2007, the Democratic Caucus chair instructed freshmen Representatives not to appear on the show's 'Better Know a District' segment. The Report has also coined several neologisms, such as "freem" and "truthiness".
