“I know you guys are objective over there, that you just report the news as is,” Colbert began before the audience broke out into laughter.

“Is that supposed to be a laugh line?” Collins asked, a sheepish smile spreading across her face.

“It’s not supposed to be, but I guess it is!” Colbert said in a rising, whimsical voice.
