This is the impression I got too, her original outrage was over the comedy central Twitter post, not the show segment itself, it was only after the thing blew up that she started trying to walk it back to being about the actual segment and brought up additional points. Even then, she didn't really start talking about those new points until after the Native American community that was campaigning against the Redskins team name started telling her to stop drawing attention away from their cause.hentropy said:I really don't think Park got the joke, at first. It may have been explained to her later, but it seemed pretty obvious from her initial outrage and postings on the issue that she thought it was serious. Then she did what happens all the time when people don't get satire- they try to walk it back and still defend their original complaint under different parameters, and it hardly ever ends up well.Pseudonym2 said:2 The cancel Colbert women got the joke. She just thought that alternating between white racists and whites making racist jokes ironically left out what actual Asians and minorities thought of the whole thing. Not coincidently the senior black correspondent gets Colbert's show so we can have different perspectives handing out different points of view.
She may have meant those additional points from the beginning, but if she did, she did an extraordinarily bad job explaining her reasoning, and it looks especially bad that she didn't start walking through her reasons until the actual Native Americans against the Redskins name started taking offense to her campaign.
