"Colbert Report" Gets Scoop On Harry Potter? (Satire)

Humor

With Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows only weeks away now, reporters from all mediums are going out of their way to get the latest scoop... even when they may not be real reporters. Readers have been emailing in to let us know that recently, Comedy Central's The Colbert Report did a very funny satirical bit that featured "an advanced copy" (prop) of the not available to anyone, final Harry Potter book. In the clip, which you can see here, Colbert, reporting on the new iPhone, tells us about some of the other advance items he gets for being a 'celebrity.'
Thanks to everyone who mailed!
