Northwestern alum Stephen Colbert, host of Comedy Central’s “The Colbert Report,” brings his wry political humor to a new book “I Am America” — as well as during an interview with Entertainment Weekly magazine. Here are a few excerpts from ew.com:
On Jon Stewart’s similarly titled book “America”:
“Mine is called ‘I Am America.’ And … that really kind of codifies the difference between the two shows. He talks about America; I embody it.”
On the process of becoming America:
“Read the book, be me. Hold my truths to be self-evident. ‘Cause what I’ve written is a constitution for the Colbert Nation.”
