Colbert Relentlessly Mocks the Fox News Pundits Who Questioned Gabby Douglas’ Patriotism

Last week, Alisyn Camerota and her patriotic enforcer goons at Fox News questioned the patriotism of Team USA. It was a new low for a news network that knows how to one-up itself at all-time lows. Camerota asked, "You know, Gabby had that great moment, and everyone was so excited, and she's in hot pink -- and that's her prerogative." Then her punditry wingman David Webb added, "What's wrong with showing some pride?," claiming it was due to a "kind of soft anti-American feeling that Americans can't show their exceptionalism." Of course, that's a bunch of stupid semantically bullsh*t and everyone knows it. It's a slap in the face of athletes who have worked their ass off to represent the USA in the Olympic Games. Thus, the other night Colbert ridiculed Fox hard for the segment. And it was glorious. Watch it below.
