And if you think that’s a whole lotta C’s, consider all the C notes that Paramount was losing by keeping Colbert’s MSNBC version of the Late Show on the air. CBS was losing $40 million a year on The Late Show. That’s not far from Colbert’s $30 million salary.
Some of that can be blamed on Stephen Colbert’s relentless unfunniness, but late night has been dying for a while. NBC cut its late night shows back by a few nights and killed the band. Revenues are dropping sharply across late night.
So it’s not as if any of this is coming out of left field.
But Dems and I don’t just mean the social media mouthbreathers, but politicians and media outlets are crying conspiracy.
“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,” Sen. Elizabeth Warren, a former presidential candidate, tweeted.
CBS and Colbert had been having conversations since early July. Colbert attacking Paramount was probably part of his exit strategy to pose as a martyr.
Warren knows this. She’s not dumb. She’s just a congenital liar.
“First, Trump essentially forced Paramount to pay him to get government approval for a huge merger—it reeks of corruption. Now, Paramount fired Colbert for calling it what it is: a big, fat bribe. This is how we slide into a strongman state—it should alarm us all!” Sen. Jeff Merkeley tweeted.
What should actually alarm us all is that politicians are trying to intimidate CBS into keeping an unfunny leftist on the air.
” I’m insulted by the C note ” __ Frank Pentangeli
People like to sit down before bed and put on a show and escape for a little bit from the grind of the day and a laugh at REAL HUMOR and enjoy themselves. Not listen to a bunch of prima donna’s spoon feed you leftist Doo Doo and garbage. My God… how I miss Johnny Carson.
I miss Leno. I miss Letterman.
Hell, I’d even settle for Conan right now.
Actually, The Johnny Carson reruns on Antenna TV, run nightly as a nostalgia show for Boomers, probably has an influence on Gen Zers. They can see that while Johnny Carson was a liberal (the Floyd R. Turbo routines), He also gave Reagan and Buckley the opportunity to get in their licks, and he was genuinely celebratory over the fall of the Berlin Wall.
I believe these reruns to be an essential lesson in fair play for the younger set.
Nope – only us old folks looking at nostalgia for the so-called ‘good ol’ days’ where we filter out the pain and look at life when people’s faces were not tuned into our fucking smart-ass phones and people still had the art of mingling and conversations – there is this human element why we are suffering with isolation these days – everyone is chattering on some social nitwit site and no one is listening – people consider virtual contacts as friends and claim they have lots of friends and some I have lots of followers – don’t get me wrong, computing and the internet is a vital and handy tool but it will never replace human to human contact
Most all of See B.S. News is fake 60 Minutes Sunday Morning and Eye on America is just Leftists Propaganda not news and See B.S. has become notorious for some Controversial stuff over the Years like Guns of Autumm in case many forgot or didn’t know about this whole thing
who even watches that crap on the old legacy media all owned by global concerns
Please, let Jimmy Kimmel and most of all “The View” be next!
Dollars and cents…advertising revenue shrunk, as not able to cover his $30M salary. Major American companies are not stupid, their advertising ads demand EYEBALLS…and not as many tuning in to Colbert. Colbert continuing to be irrelevant to viewers, poor jokes, boring guests, blaaa, blaaa, blaaa, face reality a $30M salary…total joke! CBS Execs aren’t stupid, Follow the money!
Didn’t he have Bareback Hasbeen Osama as a guest? He’s the most boring person in the world. A coma victim would be more entertaining because at least he wouldn’t drone on.
Once again the King of Puerile avoids the fact that however much we might dislike him, Obama was a two-time POTUS. Give us your accomplishments. That you beat up a homeless guy probably doesn’t compare favorably with being President of the United States.
Bareback Hasbeen Osama is an utter fraud. We both know hew wasn’t elected LEGITIMATELY EITHER TIME. Just like Joke Bidumb.
And he’s the most boring person on Earth. Why is he shunned now? Oh, yeah because PEOPLE HATE HIM.
And Obangi and Bidimb are both glaring proof that becoming fake President is no accomplishment.
I just gave one of my girlfriends more orgasms than she could count. THAT is an accomplishment.
Could you say the same? Of course not.
Needle dick.
.
At the corner of Dumb and Bargholz, all elections resulting in a win for a Democrat had to be fraudulent. Why did Fox News pay Dominion $785 million again? I just know you’ll give a brilliant response to that.
“Becoming President is no accomplishment.” Just when I thought you could not make dumber statements, you surprise us.
As for your girlfriend, I’m assuming that isn’t the woman who took you to court for support payments. Readers can look that up using your name and San Jose. Classy!
Mi Heffy Jeffy Rides Again!
That would make a great script with sequel options!
I’m writing myself in a Hoppy, the brain fried gold prospector and
O’bannon – the wealthy rancher who owns the town.
Truth Justice and the American Way!
Ride ’em Jeffy!
Damn, you really resent my big dick and superior looks, don’t you pee-wee? Al Dingus? Good luck getting laid with a screen name like that. You might as well call yourself Al Qaeda.
Chomo. I bet you’re a cat rapist. “Meow!”
Zer0bama’s accomplishment was to make the world a more dangerous place.
And to do that he first had to get elected to POTUS. Admittedly, that pales in comparison to Jeff “giving one of his girlfriends” multiple orgasms. If you divide the number of U.S. Presidents by the number of men who claim to have given their girlfriends multiple orgasms, you’d get the IQ of someone who asserts becoming President of the U.S. is, and I quote, “n0 accomplishment.”
Beam me up Scotty. There’s no intelligent life down here.
red diaper baby becomes Manchurian president and wrecks country while slanting it precariously towards being permanently communist- either too lazy or not violent enough to finish
Jeff would be much more interesting than malibu but he couldn’t compete with big mike rolling the homeless. Her first job committed her from to throwing bums out of a hospital and making certain they didn’t receive immediate care. She was so good at it she got 300K per year first job!
Yeah, Obangi and Bidumb were real national treasures.
They earned every failure and disaster they accomplished. They sure didn’t earn the presidency. We all know neither of those reptiles were elected legitimately.
Just move to Somalia and count the turds around you and the flies on your face, scumbag. We all know you hate America.
Sez the guy who never gave a chick an orgasm in his life.
I’m not sorry that I’m. utterly superior to you. I enjoy the fact that you live in shame.
Sez the loser who never made a chick. cum.
Every chick I’m with says they can’t remember how many times they cum. They say things like “It was a lot more then three.”
Your butt buddy boyfriends cant say the same, you chomo.
I’m your superior in every way, shape and form.
Bitch.
albondigas now that’s a darn good Mexican soup – slurp slurp –
I beat up 10 homeless guys and kicked three when they were sleeping – I had my chauffer pull over in downtown LA because I had to take a piss and I pissed on a homeless guy sleeping –
Am I proud of that? Eh – just a memory in the blustery busy days I have.
Obama fooled everyone. and he did not win as much as those two elections the Republicans had two real wing nut losers for candidates – There has never been a better bullshitter than Obama – all that black gospel church style oratory and he said nothing.:
“One of Obama’s great gifts is the ability to say things that are absolutely absurd and make them sound not only plausible, but inspiring.”
Frankly, Obama followed a bigger bullshitter of the “as shucks” kind – George W Bush –
Not that it wouldn’t be fun going to a BBQ with the two – but as POTUSs they stunk!
~ Thomas Sowell Quotes
It does to malibu the black mao/stalin*lazy
Firing a sad TV comedian is sort of like “fat shaming,” isn’t it? Stephen Colbert can’t help it. Surely such a “hostile” workplace environment violates equal employment opportunity laws at CBS. What’s a “woke” Pagliacci to do? Maybe a Democ-rat district court judge will issue a media-wide injunction.
Television is a cutthroat business. The bottom line prevails over all other considerations. And it doesn’t make Colbert’s exit any less flattering. I can imagine the boardroom conversation may have gone something like this: “The show sucks, it’s bleeding money, and we need to dump this load of crap right now if not sooner.”
I ❤️ to watch Stacey Abrams blubbering ~
Elizabeth Warren was not elected to worry about a privately owned tv network changing a program. Her comment does not put a feather in her partisan war bonnet.
Don’t talk to me about any real or imagined Epstein files until CONgrASS investigates PokoHauntUs Warren for lying on her college admission forms and however she claimed to have American Indian DNA or heritage – what a den of thieves just as corrupt as HellyWeird – that’s why they get along so well – they are thick as thieves in their pirate’s den
You misspelled “whore” …
I can’t say I ever watched a Steven Colbert moment – the dude is a snarky ass wipe and tired and boring – never changes from his pandering parroting perch
Johnny Carson was an equally opportunity offending monologue and one liners – As was Leno and Letterman
All late night except for Guttfeld is pandering and parroting – those TDS and lunatic libertards can depend on turning into these unfunny pandering and parroting low lives and get their nightly fix –
So many of them left that reservation and voted for President Trump in 2024 simply because of the truth and facts.
The true facts are today’s liberals are not the brotherly love liberals of the 1960s. These are dangerous marxist communists who are hell bent on destroying USA – the fact is if they ever succeed, those who cheered them on will say: “OMG. What have I done? I didn’t know?”
And this is written about in the Book of Revelation:
Revelation 6:16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
Oh by the way, I could not be more delighted – a blip but a positive note to start my day – a looney leftist TDS whacko went too far and cut the branch from the tree sitting on the branch and not the tree
No I am not bitter because I lost out on the part of Dennis in Dennis the Menace and the Jewish neighbor in My Three Sons where the dad played by Fred McMurray said it’s ok to have the little kike, I mean Jewish boy over.
Don’t even get me started on Mark, Lucas McCain’s son – Or my dradle dance auditioning for a Mouseketeer –
Yes, it ain’t easy being me, but I’m used to it – anyone else, they’d be dead in 5 minutes –
This is as pointless and off topic as people taking potshots at other commenters because they think this is the social nitwit sight where people cower behind the cyber veil, trolling and taking pot shots like hit-and-runs –
The Democrats are peeved because they are losing one of their major soapboxes.
In the red for $40M annually? Seems more like a business decision to cancel, rather than a conspiracy. But never let logic get in the way of a good gaslighting effort.
