Ben Sasse was on to sell his book, and take some gentle ribbing from Colbert about Northwestern's football team beating Nebraska. > It is not clear who from the right is willing to go on the show.

No. The audience that appreciates Colbert's monologues, both at the Ed and at home, isn't going to appreciate someone who just comes on to spew the right-wing line. And while Colbert will be polite, if things do get ugly, the Late Show has the final edit. So even if the show tries to book more Republicans, there's not a great deal of incentive for political types who don't have much appeal beyond the base to go on the Late Show. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TVorNotTV" group.
