The capitulation of major U.S. institutions to Donald Trump is smartly observed in this astute column. https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2025/07/stephen-colbert-cancelled-cbs-trump-paramount/
@heidilifeldman Agree, but these people have earned enough to be able to broadcast their messages trough independent platforms. They are quite old and don't need more money.
If you haven’t been watching Colbert, you can’t imagine how focused and funny and unrelenting he has been in exposing Trump’s criminality, night after night. He has kept me sane. He has done the job the mainstream press has abdicated. He has spoken the truth.
No wonder the axe is falling.

What an incredibly dark time in America.

This is precisely why they want it silenced:
"The most recent ratings from Nielsen show Colbert as winning his timeslot, with about 2.417 million viewers across 41 new episodes. It also said his late night show was the only one to gain viewers so far this year."
