TONIGHT: Chris Beam on The Colbert Report!
IvyGate idol and editor emeritus Chris Beam will appear on Comedy Central's Colbert Report tonight at 11:30ET. Now that he's flown the IvyGate coop, Chris co-authors Slate.com's Trailhead campaign blog, because apparently choosing America's next president is more important to him than Ivy League sex jokes. Pssht. The main guest will be National Review diarist David Frum but, like, whatevs. Everyone's going to be too busy swooning over Babyface Beam to pay attention to a guy who looks like this. Television is justice.

Yeah, but like most segments the interview was about Colbert, not his guest. So he got cut off a lot for Stephen’s big laughs.

should be “editor emeritus”, unless chris beam is secretly two people. I mean, we can’t be pretentious Ivy League assholes without getting our Latin right.

There are two of him?

Oh, someone already commented on that right above me. Sorry–I should have read that first.

he’s a scab … okay that’s all i’ve got … well he’s an attractive scab at least.
January 9th, 2008 at 6:46 pm
but why did his head look so big and his body look so small? did anyone else notice this?

@indyblue: the use of the term “scab” is ridiculous. People who go on strike should be summarily fired.

>>Columbia>> Your pro-labour views are so refreshing. Strike action is a powerful and necessary tool for employees to be heard and compensated fairly. Strike action can certainly be abused by big labour, but for the most part it puts power in the hands of workers that may have never been heard. For the most part social & economic change only comes when people stir shit up.

@grammaticus, @AMZB: My bad! Thanks for catching it.

Indyblue: “labour?” Wtf is “labour?” It sounds sinister and un-American.

columbia: Ooops … That’s my Canadian tell … how embarrassing for me? Having lived in the US, UK & Canada; I often have wondered why American capitalism looks exponentially more evil? I usually blame the greedy masons.
