Sen. Adam Schiff (D-Calif) and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass) both called the sudden cancellation of Stephen Colbert's Late Show "suspicious."
Schiff said "I was on the show when Stephen told the everyone that his contract wasn't going to be renewed. The outburst of dismay and caterwauling from the studio audience was heartbreaking. That this brilliant voice will be removed from the battle for our democracy is tragic."
Warren pointed out that "CBS canceled Colbert's show just THREE DAYS after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery. America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons. Watch and share his message."
Paramount called the decision "an economic necessity. Not enough people watch it to make the show profitable. It is costing us $100 million a year to produce the show, but earnings from advertisers have dropped to only $40 million per year. We can't afford to continue eating the losses."
Warren said "Paramount putting profit ahead of public service is a shameful triumph of greed over public. The recent stoppage of public funding for PBS and NPR is a similar tragic trend sparked by selfish individualism. Voters will punish Republicans for these atrocities in the 2026 mid-term elections. Then we Democrats will have the majorities we need to fully fund PBS, NPR and, yes, Stephen Colbert."

I don’t know what the retards are whining about. They still have “Da View”, Rachel Madcow and Rosie from Ireland.
They are upset because the show was an in-kind political contribution of media resources.
They are seeing all their political funds dry up and all their free media organs evaporate.
Basically, nearly ALL of the dem political machine was astroturff-ed and funded by the government and state sponsored media
True
Here is the opening dialogue, he is no Johnny Carson.

Good! Let them chase their own tails for a while!
Suspicious. These frequent Colbert show guests think their pretend world needs to continue. Their phony suspiciously funded world of pretend happy laughing audience, pretend voter support must continue.
How can Trump dare to express happiness at the demise of Trump hate TV - Trump being the indisputable choice of voters.
These people pretend Trump is some wacky powerful billionaire they can make fun of. But he’s the president. Are they so steeped in cheating they don’t get that the people want what he wants?
It’s over. And his losing 50 mil on his show and getting paid 20 mil plus a staff of 200 is more suspicious than anything they’re yammering about

Now I have to not like Alan Cummings. 13.5 solid minutes of hate America. America is now in the hands of fascists. We sex freaks are heroes with a bleeped graphic description. Turned it off very early on at him making fun of President Trump’s mother
The filthy bastards on the left are losing some of their propaganda machines. Boo hoo.
Warren and Schiff. Two of the biggest frauds on Capitol Hill.
I’m still trying to figure out why they’re giving a year before actually switching it off. Colbert’s contract over then? That’s a long giving-notice period, but maybe also contractual.

- spit-
both called the sudden cancellation of the DNC’s propaganda asset
the Stephen Colbert’s Late Show ..
...blah blah blah.
All of these leftist blowhards are running scared; Jon Stewart, jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel. Notice who isn’t scared……Bill Maher.
EC
So who is the biggest a$$hole, Cummings or the studio audience who screamed and clapped at his insane, *unkind* remarks?
Doesn’t make a difference. What’s your point?
There’s audience doesn’t pay for Colbert. Colbert loses 50 mil per year. That studio audience does not support him. He’s fired
They went there because they’re dopey. The guy in the stands waved at them telling them when to laugh a when to applaud
There’s a headline this am 1 in 7 young people regret going to college
That’s supposed to be good. Dumb-ass ery and no education is getting applauded. We pay taxes most of which goes to govt schools and this is what we get? People not going to college because Obama gave the college loan industry to the govt who helped inflate the crap out of tuition
Colbert was as subsidized as Hollywood films. Disney with their woke crap losing money Like the newspapers no one wants operating in bankruptcy. Subsidized is my guess.
Small smatterings of audience likes this. They’re dumb. But they don’t support it. They’re not a large enough group
He’s been fired. No support/audience plus cut off equals go away. Find a gig
