Interview: Stephen Colbert Editing Challenge

"Here's a little background for anybody that has no idea what this is:

Stephen Colbert is a comedian. Frequently, he interviews representatives in Congress of a certain district in a state. This segment is called "Better Know A District", or "BKAD" for short. Anyway, he asks ridiculous questions to make the representatives look bad. Later, these interviews are also edited to further degrade the person, but it's always hilarious.

He recently responded to criticism by having an NPR personality interview him. He answered the questions seriously, and challenged viewers to edit the interview to make him look dumb, just to prove that it hypothetically couldn't be done. Obviously it could, and was. Most of my clips are from the actual interview, but a few are from random episodes apart from this one."
