Something very strange happened with the “clapping seals” in the Stephen Colbert audience—they forgot their cues, accidentally mocked CNN, and absolutely mortified reporter Kaitlin Collins on live TV. It was great. She literally couldn’t believe what she was hearing. It all started when Colbert seriously suggested that CNN is “unbiased” and only reports “news.” And yes, he honestly wasn’t joking. Meanwhile, the audience, usually primed to react only to anti-Trump cracks and pro-progressive hogwash, couldn’t contain themselves and burst out laughing at the idea that CNN was “fair” and “unbiased.”
You could tell Kaitlin Collins was mortified, and Colbert was shocked. She awkwardly asked him if that was supposed to be a “laugh line,” and he responded with a defeated “no.”
Ouch.

A scene like this really highlights how much President Trump has influenced American culture when it comes to the propaganda media. He’s genuinely helped to dismantle it, brick by brick. This was probably one of the rawest moments Kaitlin Collins has ever faced, especially in “friendly territory” like the far-left Colbert show. Let’s hope it sticks with her and her co-workers for a very long time.
