The unlikely conservative star?

Man do these people live in a parallel universe or what?

Gutfeld has been out performing all of them for years

I guess I don’t understand certain things.

Colbert has the highest rated late night show, but his show loses $40 million a year?

Has CBS been subsidizing COLBERT all these years, to keep him on the air? But why would they do that? Just to provide a platform for him to take pot shots at Trump? What the heck?

“””’I can’t believe CBS is turning off the lights at 11:30 after the local news.’”””

Since this is not 1972 nobody watches the evening news, either.

Colbert’s show was losing $ 40 million a year; no contest in shutting it down. Advertisers had no interest in sponsoring. He’s not funny, he’s bitter, and he’s not particularly bright.

Gutfeld! is always engaging to me. I’ve never watched Colbert or Kimmel, and only know about them when something is posted here or in the news somewhere.

“Who is next?”

Anyone who was being pumped full of USAID dollars to inflate their DNC propaganda message.

There are so many alternative venues for late night “comedy”. It’s not like the old days before the internet and streaming.

I think the media form has run it’s course regardless of who the host is.

Next up? Saturday Night Live.

Colbert’s show annually costs $100MM and loses $40MM, per reports.

The left is claiming that “politics” is why he’s getting cancelled.

Well…maybe. But consider this…

Left statism was driving culture generally in the US since 2008, arguably.

That would mean “politics” is the only reason why this loss-producing show existed for so many years.

Flavors of the month eventually melt.

In Colbert’s entire tenure there was not one joke that will be remembered for its real insights or having brought forth legitimate laughter. The whole show was designed to placate and soothe crazy liberals and put them to bed with politically correct bedtime stories.

Stephen Colbert is a short wee thing.

He buys his elevator shoes at the same place as Robert De Niro.

There’s some kind of disconnect here if he’s quote so good why is he losing money if he’s not losing money why are they getting rid of him...

Isn’t there a Seth Meyers that needs to go on one of the antique networks?

“pantheon of greats” LOLZ! Colbert wouldn’t make a pimple on the posterior of Steve Allen, Jack Paar, or Johnny Carson!

Wouldn’t it be a hoot for some entrepreneur to replay The Rush Limbaugh Television Show in the late night hours.

Rush created four years of television shows. Many of the same players are still around: Pelousy, Schumer, Billary.

Bo Snerdley (James Golden) could assist, and even perform some of the intros.

The audience tuning in would be huuuuge.
