When news stories fall through the cracks, we here at Colbert News Hub find them for a post we call, In The Press.
Hello again hubsters! I’m back again with the articles you might have missed in March. I know last time I left you with a bit of negativity when I said I’m sometimes afraid this show might no be for someone like me, who never really watched regular late night. All your fantastic comments gave me a lot to think about. I also took a couple of weeks off watching the show because I was so busy, and I was happy to see just how much I enjoyed it when I was able to catch up. I like that it’s getting a lot more playful, less stilted. The interviews have also been incredibly enjoyable since they came back from the last break. Stephen seems much more relaxed and he’s becoming a better listener. So, while I can’t help but miss how sharp, dark, and even brutal the Report’s comedy often was (more on that later), I’m also increasingly enjoying The Late Show. But enough about my personal feelings; there are a lot of interesting articles to read. In this edition of In The Press you’ll find a couple of articles quoting Late Show executive producer Tom Purcell; you’ll find interviews with the show’s saxophonists, Eddie Barbash and Grace Kelly; a lot a discussion about how the various late night shows are dealing with the election, as well as the usual monthly stats.

Joining the estimated 10,000 – 15,000 marchers crossing the Arthur Ravenel Jr. Bridge in Charleston, S.C. on Sunday night was only one participant with 8.12 million twitter followers: Stephen Colbert. Stephen was there to be a link in the “Unity Chain” march across the bridge, meant to show a sign of solidarity of Charlestonians in his beloved, yet grief-stricken city.

Elizabeth Colbert Busch has conceded South Carolina’s First District special congressional race to her opponent, former Governor Mark Sanford. This evening’s election returns have Sanford handily winning over Elizabeth, 54% to 45%. Of the five counties reporting, only Charleston County posed a significant challenge for Sanford.
In an emotional address, and flanked by family and friends, Colbert Busch singled out her army of volunteers in particular, stating “your time, your hard work, your dedication, and your confidence in me will take me to wherever my next journey is.” She concluded by saying, “my only pledge was to the people of the first district, and I respect your decision. This is the beauty of our country,” adding, “I assure you I will continue to fight for the state of South Carolina.”

The Colbert Busch/ Sanford debate moderators react to the crowd’s thunderous applause following Elizabeth Colbert Busch’s final remarks, which included the revelation that, if elected, she would take a 10% pay cut in light of the current fiscal dysfunction in Congress.
South Carolina’s First District constituents were treated to a lively debate held at The Citadel in Charleston, South Carolina on Monday, April 29, 2013. This debate offered the first glimpse of Elizabeth Colbert Busch under the scrutiny of a publicly moderated format against her competitor, former Governor Mark Sanford. From the rush of applause that greeted her entrance to the debate, there was no doubt as to the powerful presence of her supporters. However, a strong contingent of vocal Sanford supporters were also present, quick to applaud the former Gov as he touted his financial credentials — for example, his being a member of the “Republican Revolution” in the 1994 Congress and for famously turning away stimulus money as Governor. Let’s take a look at this lively exchange, and its ramifications for the remaining days leading up to the election on May 7th.

When news stories fall through the cracks, we here at Colbert News Hub catch it for a post we call “In the Press”.
Ah, Spring. It’s here. Here’s hoping it will bring new beginnings. Spring is the best because it’s an opportunity for the world to wake up from it’s cold winter slumber and start anew.
Alright, enough of that. Let’s get to the stories. In this edition, there is much ado about late night. With Leno out (again) and Fallon in, speculation abounds as to what other shifts may be on the way in the world of network late night TV. Also, Jon takes on Egypt on Twitter.

The headliner of the event was Colbert Busch’s brother, late-night comedian Stephen Colbert, who made a rare appearance out of character to tout the candidacy of his older sister, “Lulu.” But it was not without at least one shot at her opponent, former Republican Gov. Mark Sanford.
Colbert said that though he loves his home state, “there are things about South Carolina that fill me with despair — one of them is that they managed to nominate Mark Sanford.”
