I have absolutely no idea of the makeup of today’s late-night TV advertising. Do they still show the same couple of commercials every six or seven minutes?

“We are huge fans of Colbert, we love the show, “

That’s the problem CBS.

Face it, without the old people watching reruns of NCIS they’d have no audience.

wasn’t sustainable

Sustainable! One of the woke wokesters favorite words. If the show wasn't sustainable, then according to the Left, the show contributed to Globull Warming.

What's next? The show wasn't equitable? Wasn't BIPOC enough?

Wonder why they didn’t make Colbert do cut backs and layoffs to trim the 200 person entourage he has to do the show?

Is it because he was attacking President Trump and hoped to get him not elected?

Aww, nobody wanted to watch agitprop disguised as a talk show hosted by a disgusting little rat? I wonder why?

Colbert had more staff than the King of Persia.

CBS' CEO was named "George Cheeks".

I'm sure his classmates had a field day.

The show cost $100 million and employed 200 people.
They were losing $40 million.

Why couldn’t the look at cost cutting?

If they cut $50 million, perhaps the show would have been viable.

Cut Stephen Colbert’s salary from $20 million to $5 million. Then look for another $35 million elsewhere.
A staff of 200 probably cost $50 million. Cut it in half and then you just need another $15 millon to go.

I’m no fan of his show, but I find it bizarre that they didn’t try cost cutting. I guess it simply isn’t in their DNA. If only USAID were still around.

I don’t think it is SeeBS’s job to make ColdBear rich for doing nothing but trashing the American people while kissing illegal alien azz.
