CBS cancels 'The Late Show,' Stephen Colbert to end program in May 2026

When we have killed or canceled any popular person who have a different view of our current political land scape,
What are we left with, Think about it for a while.
 
More winning! The Trump Hating partisan hack Stephen Colbert is CANNED as a result of a massive payout from a Trump winning his legal case against CBS. Unfortunately the obnoxious host of Late Night won't be off the air until next year. But notch another win for the good guys! :rock:

There are four possibilities for this:

1. After paying off Trump, maybe CBS needed to cut expenses to make up for the 16 million

2. Along with the 16 million dollar deal, CBS agreed to fire Colbert instead of apologizing

3. After Colbert badmouthed CBS for "bribing" Trump, CBS fired him for insubordination

4. all three of the above.

Trump didn't cancel Colbert. The government didn't cancel Colbert. The fact that CBS cancelled his show as of 2026, I wonder if that's just the end of Stephen's contract or is that when Skydance is supposed to take over. It's funny that Colbert went and attacked CBS on the air, and the next day, there was an article in Newsweek (I believe) saying that him and Jon Stewart's status were uncertain. BTW, be prepared to hear of people at CBS News heading out the door at about the same time. The Skydance people remember who were trying to prevent the merger from happening, and the people at CBS News know they won't be getting a warm welcome when the merger happens.
 
Fascism wins again, as Trump assaults the 1st Amendment.
That is stupid, since 2018 viewership is down 50%, ad revenue is also down 50% and production costs and ROI has been bad and getting worse. The network, cable and streaming have changed how people watch TV. Production costs are up playing a big role. NBC, ABC, CNN, ESPN, MSNBC and many other networks are in trouble and have been cutting and removing high paid talent. NBC is rumored to be retooling late-night under budget pressure. James Corden’s show ended in 2023 despite strong performance. TBS and Comedy Central exited late-night entirely.

If Trump has anything to do with this, I would be against it completely, just like I was against Biden pressuring social media to remove content he did not agree with. However at this time there is no evidence and seems like more left wing BS.

Of course Trump had something to do with it. He has it in for CBS for doing the same thing any TV outlet would do, editing. FOX is constantly editing Trump to make him look better. CBS only gave in because the billionaires in charge care about their payday over our freedoms.
 
I say that as someone who believes Trump is protecting Pedos and hiding those who were involved with Epstein. Try again.
Ah, so you are just glad the president is getting away with corruption in broad daylight, because you dont like those who are suffering because of it.

Yeah, thats much better.

And you have no facts to support your conclusion, just supposition. And CBS complied because…? lol!

What? Dude, I literally said he is hiding who is involved and protecting predators. I want everyone involved in the Epstein files exposed, and if Trump is exposed, so be it. I am literally agreeing with you on this and you are still coming at me.

I ONLY was talking about Stephen Colbert and now you suddenly make it about Trump? Where's the logic in that?
