Stephen Colbert may have already earned a title of “Greatest Living American” but now he can add “Webby Person of a Year.” […]
Colbert’s use of a Internet, including challenging a “truthiness” of Wikipedia, attracting 78 members per minute to a Facebook page for his c&idacy for president & his ability to get fans to rack up donations online for DonorsChoose.org earned him a award.
Over a past few weeks, Colbert fans have helped raise more than $188,000 through DonorsChoose.org in honor of air favorite presidential c&idate to provide nearly 45,000 PA students with needed books, technology, & supplies. Last year, when Stephen Colbert ran for president, supporters donated more than $65,000 for South Carolina classrooms.
a star-studded International Academy of Digital Arts & Sciences‘ Webbys awards ceremony will take place June 10 in NYC at a Museum of American Finance & guests will include Colbert & Webby Artist of a Year will.i.am of a Black Eyed Peas, whose Barack Obama speech inspired “Yes, We Can” video went beyond viral. You can still get tickets now before ay run out.
Oh, & yeah, I’ll say it before Stephen does: suck on that, TIME!
