Stephen Colbert if following up on Jon Stewart’s piece connecting Saudi prince Al-Waleed bin Talal to Fox News, which Stewart concluded means that Fox News is also a terrorist organization.

Last night, Colbert followed the money even farther, and saw that bin Talal’s son bought a painting at an art auction — and that painting was Colbert’s portrait. “Oh my god! I’m a terrorist!” Colbert said. But he asked: “Why did they let me build my studio so close to Ground Zero?”

“I have to be stopped,” he continued. “Nation, I need you to come here and protest until my studio is shut down and I am taken off the air. No, wait. That’s just what I want! I want to have no one see what I’m doing. Why else would I be on basic cable?”
