Greetings, Zoners! Wasn’t last week kind of a wild ride for the Colbert Nation? Not only did we get two personal appearances from Stephen, but holy ice skates, Batman, the Colbert Nation is now sponsoring the U.S. Speedskating team! Stephen come up with a great way to help out some of our talented and deserving athletes, and it’s also a way to have fun with the upcoming Winter Olympics and promote a sport that doesn’t get much attention in non-Olympic years. That was the mai... Read Full Story
Hello Zoners! I know I haven’t done one of these in a while, but real life just completely got on top of me. But, I am back and in penance, I’m covering news from the past two weeks I’ve been gone! So, let’s get to it!

No one told me that an anaconda was going to be a guest last week on Colbert, and I must admit, I do hate snakes. Hopefully, this week there won’t be any scary surprise guests, but here are the ones lined up so far who all seem pretty interesting.
Monday, November 9: Thomas Campbell
Tom Campbell became the director and CEO of the Metropolitan Museum of Art (MMA) at the beginning of 2009. Campbell was born and raised in Cambridge, England, and attended the University of Oxford where he... Read Full Story
Welcome to our (mostly) weekly discussion group to talk about Stephen, our lives, our friendships with each other, and pretty much anything you’d like to talk about with other readers of No Fact Zone, what we here affectionately call “the Zoners”.
This brunch is actually being written at 1:32a, because it’s been a stressful day and my sleep patterns have gotten all out of whack. I did, however, eat a bowl of Golden Grahams for dinner, so I’m totally counting it.
Holy cow, Zoners!... Read Full Story
This report of Stephen Colbert’s Stand Up for Heroes event this past week is brought to you courtesy of Zoner Gentoo, who was kind enough to do the only writeup I’ve seen on Stephen’s part of the event. This was originally featured as a comment, but it was too good to leave there. Enjoy!
I was [at the Stand Up for Heroes event], part of my birthday with Stephen doubleheader. I didn’t get out of the ‘Colbert Report’ studio until 8:10pm so didn’t get to Town Ha... Read Full Story
Katherine Reutter of the USA, sporting a patch of The Colbert Nation skates in the Women's 1500m finals at the ISU World Cup short track speed skating event round on November 7, 2009 in Montreal, Canada.
I don’t think I’ve mentioned this yet, but of all of the calls that Stephen has made to the Nation, the call to help sponsor the US Speedskating team has got to be one of my very favorite. It feels good to rally around the team, and to know that we’re supporting something t... Read Full Story
I wanted to share these pics, sent to us by some very lucky members of the Colbert Nation, who were fortunate enough to be able to go to the Two River theater benefit at the Count Basie theater last weekend. If you happen to have any other pics, please send them to me as I’d love to add them to this post.
Enjoy!
Elizabeth (narsilicious) and Stephen Colbert

Hey everyone! I am currently writing this Report from wonderful/wintery Canada! See, I’m from Montreal and my grandma’s having her 70th birthday. Fascinating and dangerous, I know. What can I say, live on the edge, etc. This week’s edition: Stephen in quasi-goofy arm-flailing positions! Huzzah! Commençons!
Monday, November 2

I love all the pinstr... Read Full Story
Welcome to No Fact Zone’s weekly roundup of cultural references on The Colbert Report. From Darcy to Danger Mouse, String Theory to Shakespeare, we’ve got the keys to this week’s obscure, oddball, and occasionally obscene cultural shout-outs (hey!).
Hey Zoners! I have one word for you: Vaxaconda! Stephen sure seemed more comfortable holding the Big Snake than *being covered with Little Spiders, don’t you think? But all around, a fantastic week beginning to end. What about you? H... Read Full Story
