Che, Colbert and Copyright Questions Posted by Gina Telaroli on January 9, 2009 at 4:34 pm

Sarah’s post about Lawrence Lessig reminded me that the day before one of my favorite actors was on The Colbert Report - Benicio Del Toro!

Del Toro gave one of my favorite performances of the year as Che Guevera.  But before we get to the interview I noticed upon going to the Colbertnation website that Lawrence Lessig seemed to have made a remix that Penguin Publishers made them take down. When I clicked on the link it led me to Penguin Publishers and I learned that Lessig that actually written a book called Remix (which sounds great!).  So I am wondering if the Colbertnation notice is just a trick meant to take you to the book or whether Penguin didn’t want Lessig’s book advertised on the Colbert site?

Anyways, back to Del Toro - he’s pretty great and so is Che.  Check out the interview below and then takepart to see if the roadshow version of Che is coming to a town near you!
