Journalism


Tonight, Stephen Colbert indicated that one of his writers had found a credit card, MasterCard to be more specific, of a certain Buckley T. Ratchford, a Wall Street banker. Mr. Colbert wants to interview a Wall Street banker, so it works out well for both of them.

Mr. Buckley T. Ratchford should come on The Colbert Report to be interviewed and in return, Stephen won't reveal the MasterCard number. As a teaser tonight, he revealed that the first digit of the number is 5.

That is called an incentive.

The incentive for Buckley T. Rachford is to come on Colbert Report sooner rather than later, so that no more numbers on his credit card are revealed. The incentive for Stephen is, well there isn't one for Stephen. He just keeps doing what he always does.

Suggestion for Stephen Colbert if Buckley T. Ratchford chooses to not come on Colbert Report. Use the MasterCard as a Christmas Tree Ornament.

Priceless.
