I'm not sure where you got that idea Sticky, but Colbert was most certainly criticizing the press in that section. The last quoted line says it all: the idea of an intrepid Washington reporter with the courage to stand up to the administration is fiction.
Anyway, don't believe me: Stephen Colbert specifically talked about that section briefly on the October 9 episode of Fresh Air.
