Stephen Colbert and Bill O’Reilly went on each other’s shows last week in a move that O’Reilly said (on-air) was “”a huge mistake.”” While Colbert remained in character and greeted O’Reilly with a huge “”Mission Accomplished”” banner, O’Reilly appeared disappointed when he asked who Colbert really was and Colbert replied, “”Bill, I’m whoever you want me to be.”” Colbert also smuggled a microwave from the green room at “”The O’Reilly Factor”” and displayed it proudly at the end of his own show that night.
