Stephen Colbert Skewers Hannity’s Adrian Peterson Defense, Whips Out His Belt

By Jordan Chariton 

Stephen Colbert took on Fox News’ “senior Nerf football chucker” Sean Hannity last night, spoofing Hannity’s coverage of Minnesota Vikings star Adrian Peterson’s child abuse suspension.

“I think Hannity is right on this one,” Colbert began. “Adrian Peterson went too far, but the man deserves a second chance. After all, Sean’s dad whipped him with a belt, and he never had to go to a psychotherapist. He just has to have them on his show three times a week.” After whipping out his belt to mock what Hannity had done on Wednesday, Colbert concluded, “keep up the good work Sean. I’ll see you at the group on Wednesday.”
