Michael Moore Faces Off With Stephen Colbert {VIDEO}
These two strange bedfellows have been brought together by their mutual distrust of CNN.

Michael Moore takes his new cause, exposing the shoddy reporting of the mainstream media, to the Colbert Report in the video to your right, which was provided by The Largest Minority. Moore's takedown of Wolf Blitzer first, and then Sanjay Gupta second, have now become the stuff of legend, but how does Moore do standing up against the great Stephen Colbert?

1. That was hilarious!
Moore kept cracking up--but loved the fact that he and Colbert have health care because they are UNION members!

3. Not the most informative interview...
...but it was hilarious to watch those guys crack each other up. I'm surprised some kind of dry wit vortex didn't develop between them and swallow the universe.

13. especially after that interview with John Mellencamp earlier in the week ...
Stephen (mock)freaking out, shoving the guest and overturning the table after it was suggested that he might be a "phony" wingnut. For a second I thought it might happen again. It looked like he was trying pretty hard not to break character and burst out laughing!

Dry wit vortex, indeed! Perhaps it manifested itself in that rupturing of the space-time continuum (Flint, Brazil?).

5. LOL: "CNN is worse than the New York Times because I can't line my birdcage
with tapes of The Situation Room."
