Pete Dominick
Comedian
Pete is a warm-up comic for live television tapings, including programs for MTV, CNBC, and Comedy Central. Stephen Colbert brought him to the set of The Colbert Report as permanent audience warm-up from the pilot into the Emmy award- winning show’s 7th year – when Pete left to pursue his own television career at CNN. As resident “offbeat reporter” on John King USA, Pete’s quick wit and attention-grabbing personality caught the eyes of CNN executives, leading almost immediately to his own half-hour news wrap-up show, What the Week.
