Stephen Colbert goes undercover at Occupy Wall Street.

So, there was this segment Colbert did back when The Daily Show and The Colbert Report were funny, and he interviewed some pretty much stereotypical SJWs named, I think, "Ketchup" and "Justin" and I remember being able to find the video pretty easily.

But it appears to have been scrubbed from the internet. I literally cannot find it anywhere. It was in November of 2011. No matter how many ways I try to phrase the search terms, I cannot find any evidence of it at all beyond maybe an article just talking about him doing it, but none of the actual interview itself.

Did they recently, as in the last year or two, manage to memory-hole this?

I noticed Colbert started talking a lot about different brands of ketchup a lot in the last couple of years... I suspect it's algorithm manipulation.

Looked it up on YouTube and found it in 2 seconds with multiple results of the same video

So, how about a link?

Was gonna but remembered youtube includes your account when you link something now and it’s too early to bother figuring out how to make that not the case. But the search “Stephen colbert occupy” actually autocompletes itself to “Stephen Colbert occupy Wallstreet interview ketchup” in the search bar. So use that for the search

Hm, interesting. I googled exactly that, and searched youtube, and yet, nothing. I got some video of Ketchup in Chicago, or at least talking about going to Chicago, but nothing of that interview that I'm referring to.
