Stephen Colbert

"Stephen Colbert may be "just a comedian"--one not all audiences find funny, especially among those who have been mercilessly lampooned by him--but there is no arguing that the condescending, bombastic, and largely ignorant pundit he plays on Comedy Central has brought awareness of current events and political happenings to a substantially larger portion of the American population...this book examines his life story and details how he became one of the most influential people on current American culture"--Publisher's description.
