Stephen Colbert was incensed on Tuesday night that, while every other news station was trumpeting their “exclusive interviews” with Charlie Sheen, Katie Couric of CBS news had the audacity to lead with a story about Libya.
“Really, Katie? Qaddafi?” Colbert said. “Charlie Sheen is a Golden Globe winner. Qaddafi wasn’t even nominated for his guest appearance on ‘Shit My Dad Says.’
Sure Qaddafi used to be the leading source of crazy talk, but Sheen has far outpaced him in the past week. His only chance to reclaim the spotlight, Colbert said, would be to up the ante.
And, with the help of a doctored video clip, Colbert then showed Qaddafi doing just that.
