THE HOST of Air America’s morning show “The Young Turks” Cenk Uygur is suing Stephen Colbert of The Colbert Report,” claiming that Colbert ripped off a “Klingon joke” that he told on Sept. 7 in his radio program.

And he’s posted a video on YouTube to prove it.

Here’s an excerpt from the Associated Press report:

In both jokes, Uygur and Colbert suggest that the Republican presidential candidates sounded like Klingons from “Star Trek” while speaking about the value of honor.

Renata Luczak, a spokeswoman for Colbert, said the comedian had no immediate comment but will most likely address it on the show.

As a mock conservative pundit, Colbert has often engaged in mock feuds.

An e-mail sent to Uygur’s spokesman seeking further comment was not immediately returned.
