ENTERTAINMENT Colbert County content with television coverage
The faux news program aired a three-part segment this week
TUSCUMBIA, Ala. — Here's the truth, and not just the truthiness: Colbert County is pretty happy with the way it came across on Comedy Central's hit show "The Colbert Report."
"I think it really came out in a positive manner for us," Pilkilton said Friday.
in which Stephen Colbert sent an assistant to his "namesake" county in Alabama to open the "Stephen Colbert Museum and Gift Shop".
And no, Colbert County isn't named for an actor. Ninon Parker of the county tourism office said it's named for Chief George Colbert, whose father was a Scottish trader and whose mother was from the Chickasaw Nation.

Never mind that the TV guy says his name with the French pronunciation "Col-bear" while the county is pronounced "Col-bert."

Oscar-winning actor develops civics curriculum
Sue Pilkilton, a Colbert resident who took the brunt of some of the show's jokes, said she enjoyed the episodes.
NEW YORK — Richard Dreyfuss wants to show Americans how to be better citizens.
"The teaching of civics presently in the United States is dismal and startling," the Oscar-winning actor said on ABC's "This Week" on Sunday.
Dreyfuss is launching a campaign to develop a civics curriculum for the nation's schools.
When he was a child, Dreyfuss said, civics classes taught not only the checks and balances in government but also the reasons behind the creation of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
"We want to define the necessity of civics," he said. "What is it, and is it necessary? If it's necessary, is it
urgent? And if it's urgent, what do we do? And then to proceed to literally design classes.
"It is time that we revive the notion that we can learn how to run the country and learn, not, you know, for Republicans and not for Democrats, but learn how to run the Constitution," he said.

JACMEL, Haiti — Wyclef Jean called on his Haitian countrymen to reject violence and work for a stable future during a free concert aimed at promoting development in the impoverished nation.

the Grammy-winning artist told more than 20,000 cheering fans Friday night. It was his first concert in Haiti in eight years.
The concert capped off a weeklong film and culture festival organized by Jean's Yele Haiti charity, which promotes music and the arts as a way to reduce poverty, create jobs and improve Haiti's image.
