The Zen and the Damaged

A fan site for fake newspeople

About

This is a fan site for The Daily Show, The Colbert Report, and the various hosts and correspondents thereon. It’s not affiliated with the shows or their creators; it’s just a labor of love from a fan who likes to draw and has a thing about organization.

Unless otherwise specified, all non-article pages deal with the in-character versions of the people involved. That means the “Stephen Colbert” who loves Bill O’Reilly and has a Starbucks under his desk, and the “Jon Stewart” who wears a lot of pink and occasionally has to shoo his clone off the set.

Site is run on WordPress software. Theme is a modified version of Katana.
