You don’t watch “The Late Present” for something resembling the reality.
CBS host Stephen Colbert peddled two main deceptions over the previous half-dozen years.
- The Russian collusion story was true
- President Joe Biden is of sound thoughts
That’s only a pattern of what passes for objectivity on the far-Left showcase.
It’s a bit like … CNN.

That information community is relentlessly liberal, attacking GOP figures like former President Donald Trump and pulling punches at any time when a Democrat seems on the channel.
The bias is off the charts.
And, for one wonderful second, each Colbert and a CNN star realized even their far-Left audiences know the rip-off.
CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins appeared on Monday’s “The Late Present,” keen to speak up Vice President Kamala Harris like the remainder of her corrupt company friends. This trade, nevertheless, stopped her in her tracks. (hat tip: Brent Baker/MRC)

“He has not been capable of coalesce round a single assault line,” Collins mentioned of Trump’s marketing campaign vis a vis Harris.
Colbert gently interrupted.
“I do know you guys are goal over there, that you simply simply report the information as is,” Colbert started earlier than the viewers broke out into laughter.
“Is that alleged to be amusing line?” Collins requested, a sheepish smile spreading throughout her face.
“It’s not alleged to be, however I suppose it’s!” Colbert mentioned in a rising, whimsical voice.
They know. All of them know. It’s a poorly disguised gambit the place either side fake to inform the reality.

Colbert is the fearless comedian, the sharp-tongued satirist holding the highly effective accountable. Collins is a part of a decades-old information group, one which introduced the 24-hour information cycle into existence. Simply the details, ma’am.
They’re each frauds. And so they don’t care that we all know it. The checks hold clearing. The lights stay on.
Now, the lie is extra forgivable for a comic like Colbert. He’s a clown, a yukkster. We shouldn’t take him critically – besides company media varieties routinely do. Journalists hardly ever label Colbert or his far-left cohorts “liberal” or “progressive.”
They’re simply comedians. Wink-wink. The truth that they host fundraisers for one political get together means nothing.
CNN, which continues to endure horrible rankings and could also be swallowed up by Max within the coming years, is allegedly a information outlet. Honest. Sincere. Reliable.
Goal.
Even the New York liberals in Colbert’s viewers discovered that hilarious.
