Oprah says the world seems confused by Stephen Colbert, an actor and comedian who plays a character also named Stephen Colbert. This alter ego—a loudmouthed political pundit—was created during Stephen's 15-year stint on comedian Jon Stewart's late-night hit, The Daily Show. Watch as Stephen tells Oprah how newsmen like Bill O'Reilly, Anderson Cooper and Geraldo Rivera inspired his character.
