Your Four Horsepeople

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008

After the anticipated internet popularity of the Lori Lipman Brown segment on the Colbert Report, Comedy Central Insider has posted the Colbert Report’s 8 Best Atheist Moments.

It’s surprising that only 2 of the 4 horsemen of Atheism have appeared on the Colbert Report, but I rather like the Atheist guests in these videos.  From what I’ve experienced in this movement and from where I think it’s headed, Brown, Dawkins, Harris, and Hirsi Ali are rather good spokespeople for the cause.

Suppose we needed four representatives for Atheism.  Who would your four horsepeople be?

Finally, the Video: Secular Coalition for America’s Lori Lippman Brown on the Colbert Report

Monday, September 1st, 2008

On Friday, August 29 Lori Lippman Brown, head of the Secular Coalition for America, was featured on the Colbert Report’s Better Know a Lobby segment. Initially, the taping was supposed to show on Thursday, August 28, but was postponed till the next day.

Enjoy!

UPDATE: Secularism on the Colbert Report on Friday

Thursday, August 28th, 2008

This just in:

Lori Lipman Brown, the Secular Coalition for America’s director and lobbyist in Washington D.C., will be featured on The Colbert Report segment “Better Know a Lobby” most likely today, Thursday, August 28 on Friday, August 29.

From the Secular Coalition for America’s site:

Secular Coalition for America director Lori Lipman Brown is being featured on The Colbert Report’s “Better Know A Lobby.” The two-hour taped interview with Stephen Colbert in his New York City studio will be condensed to a six-minute, or less, segment. We hope the final product will be humorous and possibly even informative. The Comedy Central show, which airs at 11:30pm (10:30 central time), is expected to be broadcast on Thursday (8/28).

Too bad it will be only 6 minutes long. However, this looks like it will be good exposure. Tune in and watch!
