wikipedia updated for Stephen Colbert

[DS1]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Colbert_Report#.27.27Report.27.27_in_Canada

you can thank me for this part

Stephen also completely thrashed President Bush on the 2006 Whitehouse Press Correspondants' Dinner. Pointing out his total failures to do anything right, his abysmal approval ratings, and his disdain for reality, Colbert totally skewered Bush. Some will say Colbert fell flat in his performance, but the reporters not laughing could not only believe someone took Bush to task, to his face, but they were also afraid of never being called on again by the President as he's known to show favorites in the press corps. Like Tony Snow.

1. That'll Be Deleted In No Time Probably.

Wikipedia isn't really meant for that.

3. Good job. I loved Stephen's speech.

Audience reaction was rather quiet, but we know the press knows that Stephen is just parodying them! :rofl:

5. It's a little bit out of place where you put it.

It's a great paragraph, no question about that, but it's in the section labeled "Report in Canada". :shrug: Someone may edit it out just based on that. I'm not really sure where it does belong. Maybe there should be a section just for stuff like that.

6. It's already gone

:D

7. A much more neutral update is posted.

It doesn't say much about his media complaint.

8. wikipedia is less than worthless when it comes to political content.

somebody else went into detail about how it's dominated by wingnuts

I found this to be true in a discussion of a historian who wrote a book on the influence of German Industrialists in the rise of Hitler

not only did prominent wingnut historians ream his book for inaccuracies that commonly occur in detailed historical texts, but they tried to get his DOCTORATE rescinded!

none of this was mentioned at wiki. HOWEVER, they did discuss some alleged attacks on the right wing historian who got the ball rolling against the victim

really disgusting bias
