Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert Together
Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert each won numerous Emmys for their satirical news shows. When they jointly presented the Reality Competition award at the 2006 Emmys, Colbert chose to stay in the faux conservative persona he used on "The Colbert Report". Colbert opened by saying, "Good evening Godless sodomites." When an aghast Stewart asked him what he was doing, he replied, "I’m bringing the truth, Jon. We’re in Hollywood, the belly of the beast." After Stewart introduced the category, Colbert continued his bit, saying, "It warps the minds of our children and weakens the resolve of our allies."
