Sorry, Canton

Posted at 9:28 AM on August 14, 2008 by Bob Collins (1 Comments)

Stephen Colbert has apologized to the good folks of Canton, South Dakota. He had called the town "North Dakota's ashtray."


According to the Argus Leader newspaper, many people in Canton didn't know who Stephen Colbert is, which, perhaps, is all one needs to know about Canton, South Dakota.
