ntervention into contemporary news

This video is a portrayal of something that treads or blurs the line between entertainment and politics. When i first saw this clip it really shocked me. At something very important like the white house correspondents dinner Stephen Colbert was allowed to speak and still playing the character he plays on his show. I thought this was a very implicit example of entertainment and politics blurring because even though Stephen Colbert was joking with the comments he made, many people who saw this appearance could have taken him seriously.
