Actress Sandra Oh put Stephen Colbert in a tough spot on Monday when she became the first guest to appear on The Late Show after CBS decided to pull the plug. As Oh wished that a plague would descend upon CBS and its parent company, Paramount, Colbert had to look right into the camera and insist that he did not share such views.

Stephen Colbert tried to suggest on Wednesday’s The Late Show that there was something contradictory or even hypocritical in CBS deciding to cancel him while parent company Paramount settled in a recent lawsuit with President Trump that could lead them to giving up around $36 million.

Like many others in the liberal media, CNN’s The Situation Room co-hosts Wolf Blitzer and Pamela Brown were quick to jump on the growing wave of fear that somehow spread from a flopping comedy show getting cancelled. In an interview with CNN chief media analyst Brian Stelter, the three expressed their concerns over what Colbert’s cancellation meant for the future of late-night TV… and…

The men of late night reacted to the news that CBS has cancelled The Late Show with varying degrees of intelligence on their Monday shows. On the dumb end of the spectrum was fellow Paramount employee Jon Stewart, who reacted on Comedy Central’s The Daily Show by telling CBS to “go fuck” itself and dropping over 40 F-bombs.

CNN’s Jake Tapper tried desperately on The Lead on Friday to connect the news that CBS has cancelled The Late Show with Stephen Colbert with parent company Paramount’s legal drama with President Trump. Tapper admitted he had no evidence for this but still found the whole thing to be “interesting” and promoted anonymous sources to help him advance his conspiracy theory.

Last night’s episode of CNN NewsNight with Abby Phillip featured a segment dedicated to liberal grieving over the cancellation of CBS’s Late Night with Stephen Colbert.

CBS’s Stephen Colbert returned from two weeks of vacation on Monday, sporting a new mustache and attacking his Paramount bosses for giving President Trump a “big, fat bribe” for settling his 60 Minutes lawsuit. The Late Show host would also continue his faux heroics by suggesting Skydance might pressure or even fire him if their merger with Paramount is approved.

Comedy Central’s The Daily Show returned from two weeks of vacation on Monday with Jon Stewart welcoming former 60 Minutes correspondent Steve Kroft to the program to claim that his former colleagues fear “losing the First Amendment” after mutual parent company Paramount settled with President Trump in a lawsuit over their 2024 campaign interview with Kamala Harris.

CNN media analyst Brian Stelter posed as Journalism's Hero again against the powers of censorship, i.e. the Trump administration, on Wednesday’s PBS News Hour. Trump’s latest sin? Paramount agreeing to pay $16 million to President Trump’s future presidential library to settle a lawsuit over CBS’s news program 60 Minutes (Paramount owns CBS) for selectively editing an…

Tonight’s CBS Evening News offerings presented viewers with an amazing split screen as it fell upon John Dickerson to deliver the news that Paramount Global entered into a settlement agreement that would terminate the lawsuit filed by President Donald Trump.

In a late-breaking development, Paramount Global and CBS entered into an agreement with President Donald Trump to resolve his ongoing lawsuit against the former Tiffany Network. Trump has originally sought $20 billion, but the agreed-upon terms fall in line with the earlier resolution of his lawsuit against ABC.

With illegal immigration being a focal point in Trump’s second term, we knew it wouldn’t be long before Hollywood would drum up sympathy for illegals again. So, Tuesday’s episode of CBS’s procedural drama FBI: Most Wanted, “Souls on ICE,” came as no surprise.

When CBS unveiled plans to reboot the iconic detective drama Matlock with Oscar-winner Kathy Bates stepping into the titular role, many worried it would be another woke hatchet job, gender-swapping Andy Griffith’s beloved character with a woman.
