Television Travel: Colbert Hyping Pennsylvania

Faux newsman Stephen Colbert is broadcasting from Pennsylvania this week, and he's got Benjamin Franklin on to help out. The pair are in Philadelphia to follow the Democratic primary, which is coming up on April 22.

Before getting into Philly-specific chatter with mayor Michael Nutter, Colbert gave a quick tour of the state's coolest tourist attractions. Among them, of course, are Three Mile Island (complete with mutant zombies), Amish country (full of Colbert fans) and Gettysburg (also complete with mutant zombies).

Tonight Governor Ed Rendell will be on the program, and, who knows, maybe he'll have even more destinations to add?
