Stephen Colbert is an American comedian who is famous for impersonating a right-wing commentator on his show. He's actually progressive, but his comedy bit is to be an over-the-top fake idiot right-winger.
He went on actual right-winger Bill O'Reilly's show for an interview. It's 7 minutes of Stephen Colbert powertalking all over Bill, and Bill can't do a damn thing about it. He makes subtle digs, makes Bill look bad, dances and evades. Colbert is destroying Bill, and Bill knows it. But again, he's powerless. THAT's the power... of powertalk. Plausible deniability.

(Sidebar for link to powertalk article. If you haven't read it yet, do that first. It's a game-changer, a paradigm-shifter.
edit: dang a lot of you are saying this doesn't qualify. on review you're right; bad example. Bill wouldn't let himself get schooled on his own show. I was likely a promo.
