When the American news media seems obsessed with trying to assert that they're not biased, Colbert takes them all on by using the premise that he's got it right all of the time. Always ready to pop their balloon, he's quick on his feet, flips things upside down, and allows us to take ourselves a little less seriously.
His portrayal of a lovable wind bag shows us how we can all embrace our own foibles as well as question why we think the way we do. His magnification of every trivial aspect of his life to grandiose proportions plays to the need we all have for acceptance. He addresses the issue in a way that allows us to let our hair down, while his is always plastered in place.
