Who in the world is johncdmiller?


We here at NFZ are as curious as all of you about the mysterious high bidder for Stephen Colbert’s cast, yet over 24 hours later and there’s been nothing in the MSM. Only Huffington Post media expert and friend of the blog Rachel Sklar continues to be on the forefront of reporting about WristSTRONG:


The Fruits of WristStrong: Colbert Cast Sells For $17,200

At the end of the day, proceeds from the sale of WristStrong bracelets are only part of the fundraising initiative — the real reason Colbert stopped by to see Brian Williams and Katie Couric (and Bill O’Reilly and Tony Snow and Nancy Pelosi) was to get them to sign his cast, so he could auction it off on eBay in the name of strong wrists and support for wounded U.S. soldiers returning from overseas. That auction ended last night with a winning bid of $17,200.00, thanks to the generosity of high bidder johncdmiller, a mysterious figure who NoFactZone, nipped in with the winning bid with 4 seconds to deadline. Drama! Miller has has no eBay history (which means no feedback – sacre bleu!) but bidders had to be pre-approved so it appears that he won it fair and square, over 106 other bids (see bidding history here). He also seems to prefer Ashley over Mary-Kate Olsen. Who is he? We must know! We’ve emailed Miller for comment and will let you know what we hear — we’re on this story like red on wrist and are available for all your quoting needs.

Maybe Rachel can use her anti-journalistic credentials to get some info, but when we asked Mr. Miller for a statement all we got was “I am 29 and single.”
