On Tuesday, Dec. 14, Stephen Colbert refused a request by Skoll grantee Water.org cofounder Matt Damon to Tweet his 1.9 million followers to promote the organization. Instead, the host of Comedy Central’s Colbert Report spent a two minute segment mocking Damon and talking about the organization, “a thoroughly worthwhile cause, ” said Colbert, “…which aims to provide clean and safe drinking water to over a billion people.” The show averages around 1.5 million viewers each night.
