Late Night’s Leftist Bubble: David Bozell on the Death of Unbiased Comedy

Ever feel like you’re watching a completely different movie than the mainstream media? You aren't alone.

This morning on The Eric Metaxas Show, host Eric Metaxas sat down with Media Research Center (MRC) President David Bozell to dive deep into the cultural echo chambers ruining late-night television. From Saturday Night Live to The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, comedy has traded universal laughs for predictable partisan lectures.

The numbers are staggering. Bozell highlighted a recent MRC study on Saturday Night Live’s Weekend Update, revealing that an egregious 91% of their political jokes targeted Donald Trump and conservatives. But the issue goes far deeper than punchlines; late-night hosts have completely abandoned their duty to entertain the whole country. As Bozell puts it:

"When you're tuning into late night, you're looking for a reprieve from politics. You're looking for a reprieve from the news. They just won't allow themselves to go outside of that bubble."

With network affiliates pushing back and ratings cratering, is the classic late-night format dead for good? Can Hollywood ever recover its sense of humor, or are we stuck in the "Trump Derangement" loop forever?
