Dizi7.0HaberKomediColbert Raporu, Pazartesi ile Perşembe günleri Komedi Merkezi'nde yayınlanan Amerikan hicivli bir gece televizyon programı. Jon Stewart ile The Daily Show'un eski muhabiri olan politik mizahcı Stephen Colbert'i canlandırıyor. Colbert Raporu, politikaya ve medyaya benzer şekilde yorum yapan The Daily Show'dan bir ve ikiye bölündü. Özellikle Fox News'in The O'Reilly Factor adlı muhafazakar kişiliğe dayalı politik pundit programlarını hicvediyor. Gösteri, gerçek hayat isimleriyle oynanan Stephen Colbert adlı kurgusal bir çapa karakterine odaklanıyor. Colbert tarafından “iyi niyetli, iyi bilgilendirilmiş, yüksek mevkili bir aptal” olarak tanımlanan karakter, televizyonda siyaset uzmanlarının karikatürüdür. Colbert Raporu her biri 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 ve 2012'de yedi Primetime Emmy Ödülü, iki Televizyon Eleştirmenleri Derneği Ödülü ve iki Uydu Ödülüne aday gösterildi. 2013 yılında iki Emmys kazandı. Tom DeLay Legal Defence Trust ve Robert Wexler'ın programa verdiği röportajı takiben birçok örnekte hicivsiz bir gazetecilik olarak sunuldu. Söz konusu rapor, 17 Ekim 2005'te Colbert'in “hakikat” terimini, söz konusu yayınevini Merriam-Webster'ın 2006 Yılı Kelimesi olarak adlandırdığı ilk filmi izleyerek, medyada önemli ölçüde yer aldı.

Film8.0BelgeselIn 1918, the U.S. Army Signal Corps sent 223 women to France as telephone operators to help win the Great War. They swore Army oaths, wore uniforms, held rank, and were subject to military justice. By war's end, they had connected over 26 million calls and were recognized by General John J. Pershing for their service. When they returned home, the U.S. government told them they were never soldiers. For 60 years, they fought their own government for recognition. In 1977, with the help of Sen. Barry Goldwater and Congresswoman Lindy Boggs, they won. Unfortunately, only a handful were still alive.
