Recent news articles have mentioned a big argument between Stephen Colbert and Khaled Hosseini, author of The Kite Runner, at a recent Book TV Expo.
Anyone actually watching on C-SPAN2 (and I was...yes, I watch C-SPAN and I know that makes me a big nerd) can tell that they were obviously just joking around with each other.
I figured a clip of the "argument" could set the record straight that there was no big "fight," just two guys joking around. (thank you C-SPAN for liberalizing your copyright policies so I can actually post it).

January 7th, 2009 at 02:04:51 Because it's a masculine statement. Girls are attracted to anything masculine, even when it's only subconsciously. That's how they're programmed by nature. Anyway, I loved Stephen's response. To me, he's amazingly intelligent and witty and spontaneous.
January 7th, 2009 at 02:27:50 I love the Kite runner .. I love it..
January 7th, 2009 at 02:50:49 Too fuuny! I am just reading a thousand splendid suns now...its a great book!
January 7th, 2009 at 03:13:48 they're both great xD
January 7th, 2009 at 03:36:47 Haha, girls. They sure love the shadow. They say they don't, but I always have more luck with them when I've got one.
January 7th, 2009 at 03:59:46 I love both of them. hahahaha
January 7th, 2009 at 04:22:45 Get over it tyserx. How about comment on what he said, not the little name he called Americans. And yes, like BoojumFed, you called him limey, so how about you kill yourself along with him, if you're just like him?
January 7th, 2009 at 04:45:44 Haha...nevermind. A premature reply by me before the recording had gotten very far. Well I'll be damned, Colbert does have a five o'clock shadow. Why doesn't he sport one more often? It looks really good on him. Now I'm kind of embarrassed to have posted two comments regarding Stephen Colbert's facial hair, even if it is glorious.
January 7th, 2009 at 05:08:43 I don't know if its a distortion in the film or a real five o'clock shadow, but whatever it is, it's hot.
January 7th, 2009 at 05:31:42 5 o'clock shadow on colbert :D
January 7th, 2009 at 05:54:41 haha this is great
January 7th, 2009 at 06:17:40 Kite Runner is a great book. Good comedy here.
January 7th, 2009 at 06:40:39 You're complaining about the word 'Yank', and you're defending your position by calling them 'Limey'? *sigh* My head hurts...
January 7th, 2009 at 07:03:38 why do you limey pricks always say yanks? it doesn't stand for anything remotely relevant from this or the past 8 decades.. please kill yourself, it's better for evolution if you would die soon.
January 7th, 2009 at 07:26:37 lol
January 7th, 2009 at 07:49:36 a load of yank bottom kissing and ego massaging ..not unlike 'the kite runner' itself
January 7th, 2009 at 08:12:35 haha "don't clap yet"
January 7th, 2009 at 08:35:34 Khaled Hosseini is actually fairly funny
January 7th, 2009 at 08:58:33 He even said in the speech he's a huge fan of Colbert, so I dunno how anyone could have mistaken that.
January 7th, 2009 at 09:21:32 Thats not really arguing. Hosseini has always been a big fan of Colbert. They're just kidding around. It's all in good fun.
January 7th, 2009 at 09:44:31 word,,fine book but anything but uplifting
January 7th, 2009 at 10:07:30 this is funny stuff!
January 7th, 2009 at 10:30:29 Khaled seems nervous about speaking in public.
January 7th, 2009 at 10:53:28 i read that book.. its pretty good
