In an interview with Rock Center special correspondent Ted Koppel to air [January 16, 2012] on NBC, Colbert described the benefits of Super PACs.

"A PAC can only take so much money, it can only spend so much money, and I wanted to spend unlimited amounts of money and receive, more importantly, unlimited amounts of money, and so my lawyer told me all I had to do was add a cover letter that said that I intend this to be a Super PAC and it was a Super PAC," Colbert said.

When asked how much money his Super PAC had raised, Colbert said, "The fun thing about that is I don't have to tell you."

Colbert said Super PAC rules eventually require disclosure of contributors but, until that time comes, "My major donor is none of your --- damn business."
