What Parents Need to Know
About The Colbert Report
Parents need to know that this news satire pokes fun at conservative political viewpoints, borrowing much of its in-your-face style (and many of its patriotic graphics) from Fox News programs like The O'Reilly Factor. The show's self-important host, Stephen Colbert (played by comedian Stephen Colbert), thumbs his nose at political correctness and generally abhors anything with the slightest scent of liberalism. He's also known for openly criticizing his guests and sharing passionately misguided opinions, most of which lead to absurd conclusions. For example, while speaking out about the dangers of Mother's Day, he says with deadpan sincerity: "If kids want to do something nice for their mother, that's fine. But for me to join in, it is incest. And it is wrong."

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the ways in which various news talk shows have influenced the way Americans gather information. Are talking-head TV personalities like Chris Matthews, Bill O'Reilly, Sean Hannity, and Keith Olbermann journalists, or merely talk show hosts? To what extent is the line between the two professions blurring in the modern media? (For example, could one person's opinion easily be misconstrued as fact?) Is the mainstream news media truly "liberal"? And if it is, is Fox News truly "fair and balanced," or does it tip the scale toward "conservative"? Are self-proclaimed "fake news" shows like this one a good substitute for the real thing?

Steven Colbert is a comedic genius~
It's a great show; very funny, especially Colbert himself. The show is pretty silly, yet it's hilarious. I watch it every weeknight with my mom, who also loves it. Probably not a show for kids under 12; while the show isn't ridiculously graphic (bleeped out curse words and occasional sexual remarks) it's likely younger kids won't understand the humor. I love the show and I adore Colbert.
