I know this is waaay late, but I had to include Ching Chong Ding Dong on the Worst AZN EVR list.
I've been a Colbertian since '06. He's the only comedy I watch, so I wasn't offended by Ching Chong bc I understood his intent.
That said, I think he may have pushed it too far with the Ching Chong foundation.
Last Ching Chong appearance
Imagine something similar done w/ a black character, making fun of the fact that the stereotype even existed w/ that very character some kind of Uncle Tom. I guess Uncle Ruckus on the Boondocks is this type of character.
It can B done, but it's a very thin & high tightrope to walk, especially without a safety net. Tarantino managed this ever so skillfully w/ Django Unchained, which could have gone horribly wrong.
The CancelColbert movement scared the shit out of him & I don't think we'll see Ching Chong evr again.
1st Ching Chong appearance - Hot tea!
