Colbert ‘Nails’ Pesky Amtrak Photographers

Tackling an issue near and dear to our hearts, Steven Colbert ran a segment last night about photographers getting “nailed” for the (non)crime of taking pictures in train stations. He follows the story of a deeply scary, cat-walking photographer who was arrested after shooting some “shiny” trains in New York’s Penn Station. For his terrorist plot? No, for the Amtrak photography contest, of course.
