Twitter (http://mashable.com/category/twitter/?utm_medium=feed&utm_source=rss) has turned on Stephen Colbert.
The #CancelColbert hashtag swept across Twitter on Thursday night and into Friday morning in reaction to a segment in which the Comedy Central host used Asian stereotypes to skewer Washington Redskins owner Dan Snyder.

Colbert took Snyder to task (http://thecolbertreport.cc.com/videos/b6cwb3/sport-report---professional-soccer-toddler--golf-in**vations---washington-redskins-charm-offensive) for refusing to change the team's name while creating a foundation to help Native Americans, satirizing the situation with his own insensitive charity.
