Watch the video at the link, it's painfully obvious it caught Colbert by surprise that his contract renegotiation.
If you parse his announcement, it's obvious TrumpII demanded Colbert's scalp on the qt as part of the 60 Minutes settlement to grease the skids for Shari Redstone's big, amazing, yuge, Trumptastic merger of Paramount Global with Skydance.
This is without a doubt the best slow-fused MSM revenge play by TrumpII thus far.
Yeah TrumpII emptied out MSNBC and CNN, but Lemon and Acosta didn't have Colbert's shithead-but-loyal audience and demos.
His producers didn't like him, the network didn't like him, Corden didn't like him and quit CBS despite making a shitton of money for himself and CBS -- and Corden is a globalist-level, entitled-class prick-on-wheels.
There are people at Paramount ululating and handing out candy that they took pencilhead down, you-get-no-contract-renewal-you-go-now, to where Colbert will be reduced to doing a lame plodcast like Onan, Letterscum, the career termination dead-end arrester beds of every attention-whore Leftist TDS scumbag.
Not soon enough.
Why wait?
Why wait indeed?
ho hum, never watched it.
What’s the record number of times a story gets posted?
That’s a shame.
Exactly.
The four people who watch it are going to be very disappointed.
“What’s the record number of times a story gets posted?”
I don’t know, but have you heard about Stephen Colbert getting his show cancelled? Can’t remember where I read it.
When you introduce me, would you call me “Joker?”
I have to ask the LORD for forgiveness. I want to punch that smug look off his face.
Why wait? You don’t want to miss the Christmas Special.
Now, somebody throw John Oliver over the side in that same way. Poisoned shark bait!
I just heard Sir Michael Caine say “Most people don’t know this, but Steven Colbert’s show getting canceled next spring”.
Who?
that was certainly worth the price of a ticket
who’s left?
Stephen who? Never heard of him.
And I’m not kidding.
Ratings are probably rvivalling the RAT communist party at around 19%...lol.
