I read an interview with Colbert where he was asked about the show. Besides making satire of politics, the main point of his show is poking fun at the various overly opinionated self promoting "news" personalities that currently exist on whatever network.
So that self promotion that gets old is him mimicking your favorite/least favorite show host. Whether it's O'reilly, Hannity, Olbermann, Mandow, Matthews, etc.
