If you’re as big a fan of Stephen Colbert as we are, you know how much of a following he has. I mean, he and Jon Stewart have redefined how we see the news – many times at the expense of our politicians. It’s cool though, right? Someone’s gotta give it to them once in awhile.
Well our man Matt Gromley means business, too. And he’s started a pretty impressive effort to get Colbert to sign an Arrest Warrant for Joseph Kony – on the air. Matt’s Facebook group already has 1,093 members, and his forum on Colbert’s site is blowing away our minds.
So, if you love IC —> and you love Stephen Colbert —> (you’re catching on) —> what’s the obvious solution? —> A combination of the two, right? Sign on the Facebook group, and get the word out to all your cronies. This would be coverage like we’ve never experienced.
Matt, thanks man. You are America. (And so can we!!).
