NY Mag on the Colbert Report...
Kois: Where Stewart was forced to build his show around his concern for the writers, and the strike in general, Colbert built his show around what it's always built around: "Colbert."
Rovzar: And yet he made the same statements as Stewart: He had humility about his own skills without his writers (by acknowledging he couldn't do the Word), and a nod to the seriousness of the union's complaints (by inviting on the professor to speak about labor issues).
Kois: He totally did.
Rovzar: I'm very impressed. But Stewart didn't want to be good.
Kois: He wanted to sound notes rather than do a show. Who knows how people really feel about their jobs, but this sure makes it seem like Stephen Colbert loves his job and Jon Stewart has had about enough of his. Colbert seemed like he was champing at the bit to get back; Stewart much less so.
Rovzar: Stewart has always had a way of getting serious at moments, though. It may not be a sign of him being tired. It may be a sign of how much he cares.
Kois: Like Hillary!
Rovzar: JUST LIKE HILLARY.
