Lots of cancel culture here.  Personally, I didn't watch, so I don't care.  But not caring also means not delighting in it.  Unlike the cancel culture woke right who show up here.

I'm not much of a late night talk show guy, but my personal preferences are:

 

1. Kimmel. Trump calling him out actually sharpened his comedic edge. And I'm all about edgy.

2. Colbert. Mostly boring. Has always been. Annoying. Can't watch him. Not sad to see him go.

3. Fallon. No edge whatsoever. Bad wig in lame attempt to preserve "boyish charm."

I watch Gutfeld. The king of late night!

Kimmel- was funny with Carolla

Colbert-the dancing syringes sealed his fate

Fallon- go back to SNL and stick to cowbell sketches

Nothing says “I don’t care” like taking a moment to announce “I don’t care”.

Nothing says "I missed his point" like another one of your dumb comments.

It was a weird hire from the start because all he knew was political satire geared to the left.  Colbert was basically the MSNBC of late night and Gutfeld was the Fox News (literally) of late night.  Both had higher ratings than Kimmel and Fallon so there's something to that strategy of targeting just one group of people.

culture people excited that someone whose speech they disagree with is being canceled almost certainly to facilitate a corporate merger. 

Almost certainly…

Assuming he’s remembered at all.

 

 

 

“Stephen Colbert’s legacy will be this…

 

“He was a gerbil of a man, an establishment shill, a toadie

to big government, a follower instead of a trailblazer, a

self-involved statist, a moral coward in the face of Woke

McCarthyism, and a divisive, self-regarding loser who killed

an entire late-night franchise because he sought applause

from those who agreed with him instead of laughs from the rest of us.

 

“Most unforgivably, he sought only the approval of elites because

he saw himself as too superior to entertain the rest of us.

 

“In short, Stephen Colbert will be remembered as a dick.”

I believe the ratings stuff, but the timing? I doubt it’s coincidental. More Shari Redstone cozying up to Trump to complete the CBS sale without FCC interference. 
Enjoy the New CBS, brought to you by Oracle and the Ellison kids.

Trying to frame the biggest corporate shill as a victim of other corporate shills is comical.
