Oh aren't you clever with your titles.
Thought Steven Colbert - Got excited.
Read the quote - Got angry.

Then why don't you make the title "Colbert's sister running for office" so you're not deliberately misleading everyone?
Hell, this might be good.
At the least, anyone related to our patron god Stephen Colbert has to be a decent person.

it's a completely true title, despite the obvious joke I don't think he needs to go out of his way to avoid your expectations. Clearly there's a difference between a title that makes you go "ohh, THAT Colbert... OH it's his SISTER" and "What the fuck you lied to us colbert just visited the president or something this is ~sensationalist~"
it's when people pull crap that's clearly wrong and causes half the thread to throw around angry statements based solely on the title, it's a huge issue. don't derail threads because of a smurfy-esque title or whatever, that's worse than having to take ten seconds to actually read the article to figure out what the title actually meant
:colbert:
"Oh fuck that."
