Stephen Colbert's SuperPAC: (scroll down to get to the YouTube video URL)

Video Description

Colbert actually formed a SuperPAC to teach Americans how absurd the laws are regarding political money in campaigns as a result of the Citizens' United case. Although SuperPACs can raise and spend unlimited amounts of money with few restrictions (unlike regular PACs), they are not legally allowed to donate directly to campaigns. Instead, they spend money on behalf of candidates and causes, and are not allowed legally to even "coordinate" with candidates. However, because the heads of SuperPACs are almost always very close allies of the candidates they support, the coordination rule is largely a charade. Interestingly, a study in the Journal of Mass Communication and Society showed that Colbert's viewers were better informed of the role of PACs and SuperPACs than viewers of traditional news reporting. see: http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/15205436.2014.891138#.U4x_dyjt-1s
