They are just as much culpable as any other media outlet; Stewart anyway. Colbert at least puts some effort into humor, whereas Stewart is "BUSH SUCKS LULZ" "AIG got bonuses, LOLZ" bullshit over and over and over.
He picks whichever requires less intellectual effort, being his "funny" character or his morally outraged "voice of a generation" and if you dare to interact with him, he simply shifts to the other and acts offended, its cowardly. He is an intellectual coward.
And, as this post clearly shows, his fans do the same, they take him seriously when he says what they want to hear, but when he is questioned they get butthurt and act like it is some big meany picking on a poor comedian. Its a joke.
Colbert at least has the balls to stay in character or out of it, and engage in a conversation fully in one or the other without acting like a crybaby bitch.
