Google CEO Eric Schmidt appeared on Comedy Central’s The Colbert Report yesterday. The show’s site has video of the interview, which it kindly encourages embedding of. 

It’s always interesting to hear what Schmidt has to say, particularly in front of audiences who aren’t necessarily search and technology news hounds. Colbert raised a couple issues that the general public may not be as familiar with, such as Google’s user data policy and Google’s situation with China.

Colbert gives Schmidt some good-natured ribbing, and manages to plug Bing in Schmidt’s introduction.
