Colbert was terminated because the show was losing millions. Millions of dollars. Millions of viewers. And, tons of advertisers.
This is what happens when your show becomes nothing more than a "Hate Trump" gripe session welcoming guests who only see eye-to-eye with the host.
It was not and is not funny, which is what it is advertised as - a late night COMEDY show.
Now, Colbert is playing the victim. I'm wondering if he will even make it to May 2026.


He will be more popular than ever before because he can now roast Epstein’s partner non-stop for nearly a year.

Then, Paramount signed a $1.5B deal with SouthPark. First South Park episode aired last night and it was just an extended roast of Trump. Like, so bad.

This is going to be so fun.

Ha ha.

Your post is devoid of facts, bro.

Colbert has the highest rated night time talk show.

He was fired for political reasons. Period. Trump immediately posted on TS that he was thrilled Colbert was fired.

I'm going to watch Colbert every night from now on. I hope his ratings soar. They will.

Actually, no.
Colbert was top in his time slot, but the competition there isn't much.

According to LateNighter.com, citing Nielsen ratings, CBS’ The Late Show with Stephen Colbert topped the 11:35 pm hour in total viewers with an average of 2.417 million across 41 first-run episodes. The Late Show was also the only program to show an increase over the first quarter, with the show up 1%. In the coveted 18–49 demo, Colbert brought in 219,000 viewers.

The biggest ratings winner, however, was Fox News’ Gutfeld! in the 10 pm slot. The show, which takes a satirical look at the weekly news with a panel of comedians and political commentators, averaged 3.289 million viewers for the second quarter and 238,000 in the demo.

That doesn’t change the fact that CBS ended Colbert because of Trump. That should have never happened. We don’t live in Russia.

Wait. CBS fired Colbert because the show was losing money, Bigly.

Do you believe CBS should keep Colbert given the financials of it?

If you answer that they should keep Colbert regardless, I want to know why.

Doesn't matter what his ratings were. The show is losing money. JFC. Is this really this difficult for you to understand?

You have it bass-ackwards. We would be living in Russia if the show was kept on in the face of losing money.

If the DNC wants to start their own late night show and fund it, let them. But CBS is dropping the show because it's a financial loser.

Looks like a scheme to both monetarily shakedown the company and get free services by leveraging fcc approval. Sounds like a rico scheme to me.


Was this an official act for which Trump would have immunity?

The lawsuit was brought in his personal capacity before he was President, so no.


Yep.

And to think, all this could’ve been avoided had CBS just practiced ethical, unbiased journalism in the first place.

Keep in mind that Colbert has been paid $6,000,000 salary 2015 - 2018 and $15,000,000 salary from 2020 - 2026.

$108,000,000 total to go on the air and hate half the country for an hour each night

But your offended it's coming to an end. Whatever.

Maybe it is, maybe it isn’t. But a POTUS should not dictate what we watch/don’t watch.

Now he is going after the View. All because of his fragile ego.

POTUS isn't. You can watch it if you want, but if it's not financially viable, you should not dictate what CBS broadcasts.

The View is up next in the barrel. Probably because of all their slander and their lawyers having to demand the talking heads retract their lies.
