conceptual art making a comeback

btw

did anyone see the hilarious bit last night on the Daily Show (USA
cable network show
http://www.comedycentral.com/tv_shows/thedailyshowwithjonstewart/)
where their 'correspondent' Stephen Colbert reviewed the redacted
congressional report on 9/11 as if it was conceptual art?

it was funny.

can't find a transcript or video online however. my apologies
(grumble, lousy *old* media, grumble, grumble..)
