'Restoring Truthiness' is the code name for a growing Internet campaign to get talk-show host Stephen Colbert to host a satire of the Glenn Beck 'Restoring Honor' rally.
By Gloria Goodale, Staff writer / September 7, 2010
Can the Internet put Comedy Central’s Stephen Colbert on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial? If some 8,000 online supporters – and counting – have their way, the mock conservative talk show host will be hosting the “Restoring Truthiness” rally on Oct. 10 as a sort of satiric counterweight to the Aug. 28 Glenn Beck "Restoring Honor" event on the same steps.
Stephen Colbert should definitely do this if only to get that bitter taste of Glen Beck and his obvious pandering at the Lincoln Memorial out of our collective memory.
