The story about Colbert being cancelled because…. Trump doesn’t like him, should be a warning shot to everyone. The oligarchy has the power… they will use their money to silence you. Time to rise up.

Wouldn’t be poetic justice if Shari Redstone’s CBS merger doesn’t get approved after she paid trump $16 million and Colbert and Stewart would have been cancelled because they are so mean the “Der Fuhrer” trump. Shari would just have to SUCK IT UP🤞🤞

The Late Show is losing $40M a year. The show was cancelled because it is losing money - they can’t sell ads for enough money to sustain the operating costs of the show.

Why should Americans be concerned? Because The Late Show is losing $40M a year? That the show was cancelled because it is losing money? CBS can’t sell ads for enough money to sustain the operating costs of the show.

When I visited NYC last year I stood in line for hours to get into the Colbert show, and I was glad to do it. It was an experience I will never forget, & the highlight of my trip. There was a restaurant I ate at before the show that I’m sure will miss all the business. Everything T touches dies.

State Street is run by these humans. They are the driving force behind such decisions. May we start asking the people directly, instead of just giving the name of a big company when there are real names behind them?

Paramount's so desperate for their GOP-backed Skydance merger, they paid Trump hush money and axed Colbert — selling out journalism and the 1st amendment to appease an autocrat and his billionaire enablers 👇 bsky.app/profile/that...

🔥 Paramount & Trump’s Quid-Pro-Quo Let’s say the quiet part out loud — since the media won’t. 📺 CBS’s parent company, Paramount, just gave Trump $16 million to settle a bogus defamation lawsuit over a 60 Minutes piece with Kamala Harris. No apology. No fault. Just a fat check. 🧵(1 of 7)👇

Colbert already went low, as in The Late Show is losing $40M a year. The show was cancelled because CBS can’t sell ads to sustain the operating costs of the show. It is simple math.

Finally cancelled my Paramount+ subscription. Even if I'll miss Survivor, I'm done with CBS. Clearly see itself as one more fascist propaganda tool for Trump and the GOP. One hell of a way to crash a legacy network.

Is this real? Ugh, if so I blame $$ hungry corporate executives. Grow a god damn f** spine. I already stopped watching CBS mornings 2 yrs ago due to the number of stupid advertisements. Now it's officially dead to me.

Your voice is your power. Use it! I have held protest signs 21 times since TACO FOTUS got back in the White House. I have stood for up to 5 hrs at a time and I am 70 years old. I am seeing more and more people protesting & it gives me great hope.

Oligarchs controlling media is not sustainable in a Democracy. We're finding that a person's honor and adherence to basic principles such as TRUTH are inversely proportional to their wealth. We need a media that is fearless and not protecting wealth.

Here's the thing, Colbert will come back bigger than ever. He won't be silenced; he'll find a platform. Trump fails spectacularly at everything. Fascism always fails. (Mussolini). Look at it mathematically: Trump fails FAST + Fascism ALWAYS fails = We'll get out of this SOONER rather than later.

IF you still believe that the US Constitution AND the “Rule of Law” are reality THEN you’ve bought into the MAGA mythology. The US as defined by the Constitution is GONE - GONE - GONE… just look at the latest SCOTUS rulings and the ABSOLUTE lack of any Congressional heck &/or balance… for proof!!!

CBS does make money, on other properties, but The Late Show is losing $40M a year. The show was cancelled because CBS can’t sell ads to sustain the operating costs of the show. It is simple math.

Unfortunately our elected Democrats are just as complicit in the take down of the country because they want to continue to suck on the teat of their corporate/rich handlers. Not a one has done anything more than speak into a mic or send a strongly worded letter. How long till ICE is at my door?

The dems are standing right in front of the people causing all the misery and they do nothing, saying a few gentle words in opposition or sending a strongly worded letter is not doing anything, they have physical bodies, they should use them just like we in the streets are.

Kill the oligarchy. By used products. Shop small businesses. But less consume less. You have the power to put the squeeze in then and their money. Labor is where true value lies. Week long national strike would be an earth quake. It can be done

There are many ways. But we need more of all of it. If you can, protest more. Call your Senators and demand an investigation into Paramount's bribe. Follow me for ideas for businesses and groups to write daily. We can not let the pressure off for one minute.

300M people have access to CBS, 61M people have access to Fox News. Colbert in 2025 is averaging 2.4M viewers per night (0.8% of available audience), Gutfeld! is averaging 3.5M viewers per night (6% of available audience). And because Colbert’s ratings suck, CBS can’t sell enough ads to make money

The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, selfappointed, or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny. James Madison

When you bend once in front of fascist you are doomed , they know they have full control over you because you are afraid and they will have you done everything they want. CBS bend on the 60 minutes case and now Trump knows he has them in his pocket and with manipulate them as he wishes.

That said, Colbert will now have a much larger audience and platform for the next year due to this, and will feel even less restrained in his satire. As the saying goes, “Be careful what you wish for. You might get it.”

I’m going to bet he winds up on hbo or a streaming network where he’s able to do a show very similar to John Oliver’s. In a lot of ways he now has a year to plan what he wants to do next & I’ll bet he has fantastic ideas and now the freedom and name to do them
