Cage Match

Set your TiVo:

Two titans of journalism square off tonight. Stephen Colbert will appear on the "O'Reilly Factor" at 8 pm, while Bill O'Reilly appears on the "Colbert Report" at 11:30 pm. "I think it's fine," O'Reilly said of Colbert's shtick. "I'm a prominent person in the media. I think satire is very, very entertaining for any society to have. I have never had a problem with it as long as it's not mean-spirited, and I don't think he is."

Bill O'Reilly versus Stephen Colbert?? OMG, it makes me wish I had my TV hooked up. Popcorn time.

My next question is: what will they use for an encore? Bambi Meets Godzilla? They'll have to wheel Bill O'Reilly out on a stretcher, plugged into an IV and on oxygen.
