CNN This Morning host Audie Cornish used Friday's Group Chat to promote her new CNN podcast, Engagement Party, co-hosted with former her former National Public Radio colleague Ari Shapiro, whom she brought onto the Chat panel.
The discussion quickly turned into a nostalgic send-off for Stephen Colbert’s Late Show. The segment perfectly illustrated the insular world of legacy media’s liberal talent pipeline. Cornish and Shapiro, both veteran NPR anchors, were joined by Garcia-Navarro (another longtime NPR host) as they lovingly processed Colbert’s exit.
Shapiro set the tone early, describing the finale as “so moving” with a “snow globe moment” that “brought a lot of people to tears.” He praised Colbert as "this gentleman of a mold that you don't see that much anymore" in an entertainment industry full of “big and toxic personalities."

Colbert’s nightly monologues brought millions of other Americans to tears — of frustration and anger.
Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.
or maybe a Treasure and bury him ? LOL
The only thing I don’t understand was why they ended the show on a Thursday night instead of a Friday night.
To make it a four-day holiday weekend.
Where do they find these freaks? What the heck is a “snow globe moment”?
Ugh Shapiro looks like a total creep. Don’t let that thing anywhere near kids.
“Colbert as “this gentleman of a mold that you don’t see that much anymore...””
Ha! I saw Colbert only once years ago. Had no idea about him. He was so arrogant and insufferable I immediately changed the channel and that was it for me and watching Colbert.
I’m sure his followers are just like him, hence all this liberal arrogance. Yeah. You could say he’s a liberal groomer.
Good bye Colbert. Good riddance.
Not me as I never watched him including his goodbye yesterday. Life is too short to ever let the leftards get under your skin.
Colbert hasn’t been funny since the original daily show.
Forgotten by June.
Colbert’s Late Show was as entertaining as woman’s roller derby sound track.
This actually explains a lot about Leftists/Liberals. They do not know what a gentleman is or should be. Not that I’m surprised.
Comparing Colbert to a mold is not far off.
These people are, to coin an ungentlemanly phrase, just his cock holsters anyway.
Colbert needs an extra day of weekend? Why, so he cna be rfershed fo rhis show?
Watch out, you’ll get sued for libel andslander.
By the mold.
