Comedy Central's Colbert to Write Book

"This book will have the same noble goal as my television show: to change the world one factual error at a time," Colbert said Tuesday in a statement issued by Warner Books.

Colbert's book, currently untitled, is scheduled to come out in the fall of 2007. Colbert, a longtime fixture on Stewart's "Daily Show," now hosts "The Colbert Report," also aired on Comedy Central.

Colbert also has a background with words. He contributed to "America (The Book)," co-authored "Wigfield" with Amy Sedaris and Paul Dinello and is credited with coining "truthiness," named Word of the Year for 2005 by the American Dialect Society.


I love it when he refers to "Alpha Squad 7: Lady Nocturne: A Tek Jansen Adventure" - the supposed book he has written, and occassionaly reads from on his show.

1. I love how the book appears to be as thick as a phone directory ...
... whenever he shows the audience a copy of "Alpha Squad 7" -- Now that's one massive tome!
