Stephen Colbert Explains the Gulf Oil Spill

Try as you might, but you will not find a more succinct and explanatory illustration of how BP is planning to fix the oil leak in the Gulf than in this clip from last night's Colbert Report…

Now, compare that with this nonsensical clip from Al Jazeera English…

Say… Al Jazeera sure seems to know a lot about this oil leak, huh? Maybe a little too much?

Look, I'm not saying that this Qatar-based international news network is actually a front for an Middle Eastern terrorist organization. I'm just saying that, as an American, I'm a little concerned that "Al Jazeera" and "Al Quaeda" both have the same first name. Just a little too coincidental for me, ya know?

The Colbert Report airs Monday through Thursday at 11:30pm / 10:30c.
