[Last week Stephen Colbert, the host of The Late Show on CBS (in the US), used a clever iPad-based invention he calls the “Ask-O-Matic” to interview voters and a presidential candidate in advance of today’s Iowa caucuses; the funny 7:46 minute video segment is available via YouTube. But this technology isn’t new: Colbert introduced it on the September 20, 2012 episode of his previous TV program, The Colbert Report
, when he interviewed documentarian Errol Morris. See a brief discussion on the New Territory Media blog and watch that earlier segment (start at 3:46) as well as the episode’s sign-off
on the Comedy Central website. –Matthew]
Ask-O-Matic technology allows Stephen Colbert to visit Iowa voters without leaving his couch
With the help of Late Show’s revolutionary Ask-O-Matic technology, Stephen Colbert visits Iowa voters in a Des Moines diner and chats with Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren live from Washington, D.C. during a break in the Trump impeachment trial.
