→The Colbert Report
''The Colbert Report'' had a following which the Colbert character often used for his various pranks. For example, in every public vote for naming something, Colbert urges his fans to vote for him. He also leads frivolous wiki-vandalizing campaigns, having requested viewers vandalize Wikipedia several times, as well as Conservapedia.<!-- (see Relationship with Conservapedia section later in the article). -->

In his recurring segment "The Wørd", which is a parody of O'Reilly's "Talking Points", Colbert coined the word [[truthiness]] on the show's pilot, which refers to the quality possessed by statements which, though factually false, are repeated by supporters who feel in their hearts that they ''ought'' to be true, and regard it as quibbling to object to their falsehood.
