Stephen Colbert Might Just Sue Larry Page’s Ass Over Knowledge Graph Screwup

  • Apparently, Stephen Colbert is 5’11” – a height that puts him on par with the likes of Brad Pitt, Richard Gere, and Orlando Bloom. Colbert’s proud of this.

    But there’s a problem. The jerk-offs over at Google are slandering his good height. According to Google and its knowledge graph, Colbert is only 5’10”.

    Might as well be a Oompa Loompa.

    He took issue with this on last night’s episode of The Colbert Report, addressing Google’s Larry Page specifically.

    “Larry, I demand a retraction, and investigation, an apology, and a substantial cash settlement – or I will see your ass in court,” said Colbert, pointing into the camera.

    Colbert should know that this isn’t isolated to his height. Google has had plenty of issues keeping its Knowledge Graph, well, knowledgable. Seriously. You may as well call it the misinformation graph.
