Better Know a District

Better Know a District (also known as BKAD) was a recurring segment on ''The Colbert Report''. It offered a humorous examination of a different United States Congressional district in each segment and generally included an interview with that district's member of Congress.
== Structure ==
Each segment began with basic information about a specific district, such as history and geography, and sometimes a humorously bizarre event that happened there. The district is also almost invariably referred to as "fightin'," as in the "Fightin' 11th." All segments featured an interview with its Representative.
One comedic maneuver that Colbert commonly employed in these interviews, particularly when he is interviewing Democrats, is to ask the Representative a loaded question of either "George W. Bush: great President, or ''the greatest'' President?", or "the Iraq War: great war, or ''the greatest'' war?" When the interviewee tried to express his or her disapproval of Bush, Colbert usually states that the only choice is between "Great or Greatest," and nearly always states, "I'm gonna put you down for 'Great'." (He often referred to previous Democratic representatives who he put down as saying Bush was a 'great' president)
After the interview, Colbert added the segment to "the big board", a map of the entire United States with district lines drawn; the new district, shown in sparkling gold on a blue background, is usually very difficult or impossible to see due to its small size. Though many districts have been profiled, the map still looks largely vacant overall.
