Headshot of Stephen Colbert. Stephen is a partisan right-wing pundit only in so far as he employs the same signature moves, truth is he's doing it for laughs. Stephen is the star of Comedy Central's The Colbert Report, a Daily Show spin-off that parodies the bluster of personality driven cable news shows.
