The Daily Show
on Comedy Central recently completed video segments shot in
Columbia, SC by Go To Team. The story
was broadcast on January 21st. The humorous focus was on the
civil rights movement surrounding the confederate flag and
South Carolina’s new holiday: Confederate Memorial Day.
A
native of South Carolina, correspondent Stephen Colbert, interviewed
three guests, for the spot including: State Senator Glenn
McConnell, Maurice
Bessinger of Maurice's Gourmet Barbeque, and Dwight James
of NAACP (or NCAA –CP as Colbert jokingly called it).
“It was a humorous piece, Colbert kept
us smiling,” Go To Team Camerman Neal Kinard commented,
“The one thing he didn’t make fun of was the mustard
based BBQ sauce.”
The Daily Show, with host Jon Stewart, is a
television show that takes a comic view on current event news,
pop culture news, sports news, and entertainment news.
From Comedy Central, Producer Jo Honig and
Correspondent Stephen Colbert. Adam Schmidt of Crew Connection
arranged the shoot. Click on the "Play" button to
