By the way, did you think that microwave thing at the end was a joke? It was, but it really wasn’t. According to the Associated Press:

“This was a huge mistake, me coming on here,” he muttered.

It may have been a greater error allowing Colbert into the Fox News headquarters, located near the “Colbert Report” studios in Manhattan. There, Colbert smuggled a microwave out of the green room, a bounty which he proudly displayed at the conclusion of his show.

A spokesman for Fox News confirmed that Colbert stole the microwave, but said it was all in good fun.
