Never one to be outdone by his Papa Bear, Stephen Colbert is auctioning off the microwave he stole from Bill O’Reilly. The move comes after O’Reilly’s announcement that he’d be auctioning off his “one of a kind,” “journalistic,” handwritten and fairly sparse interview notes from the talk he had with President Obama before the Super Bowl. They’re autographed by Obama, of course, but also by the man himself, Bill O’Reilly. Cash-strapped O’Reilly fans can also purchase photocopied versions of the notes for $25, though Fox could also ostensibly just put a PDF of the product online for a donation, and save their interns a lot of time and shoe leather. To be fair, it's admirable that proceeds from the auction will go to Fisher House, a charity that assists military families.
