How long until 60 Minutes gets the axe? 🤔

We know it was canceled for political reasons. The fact they cite money for canceling the highest rated late night talk show two days after political commentary is all the proof needed. That and dictraitor bragging about it.

Well, he's got congestive heart failure. Not long for this earth. You can't take it with you!

People can live with CHF for YEARS, and even if he face plants on a golf course, we get Vance. No improvement there

My father had that. It was a slow death....no don't get too excited about Trump kicking the bucket anytime soon.

My mom had it, too. She went quickly, but she was 94.

$40 billion and a media empire wasn't enough for Shari Rothstein....cough, cough, sorry...."Redstone." Nepoboomerbaby HUNGRY!!!!

His father associated with old school Mafia, he was tutored by Roy Cohn a mob lawyer, and he is controlled by Russian gangsters. So extortion is just how he sees business. You won't or can't meet his demands, he will close you down. Not a single shred of decency.

💪👍🤬

Or, as they used to say, “it stinks on ice”.

I think Colbert will land on his feet to a better platform. Plus - he's got about 10 months left - without a filter! We have NOT seen the last of Stephen Colbert. Quite the opposite.

😡🤬

We all know it was political. Nothing CBS claims will be believed. They have lost all integrity.

💯 political. 💯!!!

Colbert already KNOWS that his show was cancelled for political reasons. Led in ratings, so what company acts against it's own self-interests by pulling such a dick move?

More like Low Hell!!

Colbert is just the beginning. Any news show or late night talk that jokes or makes negative comments will be shut down. Bsky will be shut down along with any Facebook comments about Trump.

Introducing the weasels that want CBS - Larry and David Ellison. Skydance Media wants Paramount. Paramount owns CBS. The merger would require a yes from the FCC. Who controls the FCC??? Apparently a check for 16 million aught to cover that. Just me or does David have the look of rapey entitlement?

Just to illustrate the greed of the billionaire class...

It definitely stinks and I cancelled my subscription, but it’s also just another distraction.

Everything about everything fuckface does stinks💩💩

Here’s your guy, David Ellison son of Larry. Founder of SkyDance and merging w/ Paramount Global. He shut down Stephen Colbert for Trump, and is doing a side deal of running 15-20M in PSA of causes that please him.

It’s so wrong

Censorship is rapid at this point. Tik Tok has been taking down this video in the masses.

The msm just keeps handing trump cash for lawsuits that they can easily win

If this is illegal than isn’t Paramount part of the crime??

Cancel Paramount +

Cancel Paramount streaming subscriptions, and use the money to help out PBS

Absolutely disgraceful. Complete pay off. Colbert got shafted and I hope Paramount merger still get denied even with the bribe. The fact that so few billionaires are controlling the news/media has worried me for a while. Just gonna get worse!

Cancel Paramount+

This is scary, to think that Hollywood had corruption!!

CBS has sold its soul.

Is it possible there was no real lawsuit anyway but just a public facade to a pre-arranged bribe?

Of course it was! FCC to approve Skydance (47 contributor) purchase of Paramount!

"Financial reasons" is 100 percent BULLSHIT. Just take a look at the 2025 Q1 financials posted for CBS / Paramount and that is all too clear. The Paramount Global Board is just a bunch of gutless fucking cowards bowing before a dictator wannabe. ir.paramount.com

Yes, it does 😡

Pay the $16 mil to E Jean Carroll and Drumpf's victims and other creditors first. Bankrupt the SOB.

He owes E J Carroll around $100m at this point and the interest is still ticking.

Trump's stake in Truth Social is worth almost $2 billion.

I don't know why this is such a mystery. CBS is headed by a trump trog who's always been in his pocket and has been chipping away at the station's cred for quite awhile. You think the demise of "60 Minutes" was the end?

America already knows it was cancelled for political reasons. No further than Trump‘s comments on it. And understand the speculation that Trump demanded it as part of the settlement. It’s all politics and it’s all ugly.

It sure does.

Yeah, it was political.

We want to know the whole truth, and we do not want a dictator!

Stinks is right! President’s grift!

I loved the time you were on when you simulated the shaking of the Enterprise bridge under attack!

It's the only platform we could faithfully hope for building a progressive alternative upon.

100%

I just canceled my ParamountPlus subscription with full feedback as to why.

I canceled my Paramount plus subscription. I’m currently looking for all Star Trek series on DVD. You wouldn’t happen to have any copies lying around? ;)

CBS didn't fire Colbert, some person in the CBS organization made the decision. Who? Name the person.

Everyone needs to make sure they have a gun or a pitch fork at this point

@stephencolbert.bsky.social come to Germany. We love your show here. There is almost certainly a network which revives your show.

= 💩🖕💯cowards all who bend the knee

Question- when POTUS "wins" a lawsuit, who is getting the money? POTUS personally or the government or?????

Oh yeah, we all know what it is . . . criming in broad daylight. The only question is, will any thing substantial ever come of it? Will SCOTUS intervene to stop it? Will it cause voters in his base to desert him in the next election . . . which is currently being rigged in broad daylight?

Awful...🤬🤬🤬

If it wasn't political, why are Kimmel, Fallon etc still on air? If Colbert was the highest rated show, and was truly losing money, the late nigh talk show genre is officially dead, right?

Of course it was.....it was done so that CBS/Paramount can get the approval to take control of Skydance Media.....and they need Felon34 administration to approve the deal.

Colbert’s show will continue until May 2026. He is way too talented to not be unemployed. He’ll be fine.

#cancelparamountplus

Warren is a smart cookie. She deserves better treatment than she's gotten. But I guess there are too many men scared of a forward thinking/speaking woman who shines light on lies and corruption.

Truth

It’s not too late to cancel your Paramount subscription beginning in August. I bet a $16M deficit would add up over 90 days. You canned Target quickly.

Defamation as an income. :(

They can throw away 16 million But can’t give us commercial free viewing That would get us to watch Well, it would have…

Maybe with the time Colbert has left, he can do "good trouble."

But not only for the obvious reasons; a billionaire is given millions by a $billion corporation while millions struggle to pay for food, rent, healthcare, childcare and education. Money is a means of keeping score for those who have it, but it means survival for everybody else: Yachts vs. living.

Yes, fishy. I think we all know the reason.

Paramount was SOOOOO transparent in what they did... Karma will come back to bite them... she always does.

Karma boomerang effect! Just perfect

I guess this is going to be the end of Paramount. Nobody likes fascism but the people who've bend the knee to fascism to save their own ass are worse than the fascist in my opinion.

wsautter.com/free-downloa...

Yes it does.

I think it’s time for broadcast TV to die. Or be completely reformed.

Anyone with a brain capable of critical thinking, knows the truth. Of course, the show was cancelled to make just one man happy for a brief moment, and to disappoint millions!

It’s bribery! Capitulation! Surrender! Butts in the air, bent over, asking for 🤌🤌💋💋

@cbsnews.com paid Trump for their FCC merger approval. No secret. Colbert just called them out for it. Hope they can run their business on MAGA viewers only.

Paramount wanted something so they had to pay for it. It’s that simple

Does "CBS" now stand for "Cancel Brilliant Series"? Maybe "Conceding Bull Shit"

Liberal media was not, is not nor will ever be ally to the progressive cause

Almost as though free speech is punished.

Boycott CBS, Paramount … and anyone else involved in this sucking up to autocracy

Well fucking DUH!Of course Colbert was cancelled for political reasons!CBS/Paramount can deny it all they want,but they’re not fooling anyone with a functioning brain.This smacks of a political decision because Redstone wants to sell Paramount to Skydance and it’s is owned by Drumpf’s buddy’s son!

Who else learned the expression “stinks to high heaven” from Beverly Hills Cop?

It sure does, however, they (CBS) are good covering their tracks. Trump on the other hand…

This was an obvious case of bribery. Boycott Viacom / Paramont Global (and whatever they’ll call themselves if and when they merge with Skydance)!

I’m confident the talented Colbert will land on his feet, and he deserves to work for people who appreciate him! Let’s make these corporate executives regret their decision!

With a net worth of $75 million he can just retire and relax. Do an annual special "Year in review" for say $10 million and give half of it to his staff. That would be a class act.

I didn’t realize he was that wealthy.

It was a bribe

It’s all about retribution with Trump. He’s all about grudges.

Is it bribery on the part of CBS or blackmail on the part of tRUmp? Hard to keep up with who's doing what to whom with this regime.

The ballsy move would be for another network to pick him up….sadly none of them are ballsy

Feckless, unprincipled, greedy cowards.

When are we going to see the unedited versions of Donnie "I can't form a clear concise sentence to save my life" Trump's multiple FOX appearances. Town halls were jokes where they fed him the questions previously supplied to his staff.

Evil at work...

😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

Money cannot buy health or a heart.

Plus paramount cancels colbert on top of it….

This is the reason why Stephen Colbert was fired for speaking Truth to Power about the PedoNazi in Thief in the Whitehouse. He was awarded an Emmy. It's SO obvious! 🙄😤🤬

This might be interesting for you:

I hope some other network will continue the show! One of my go-to’s on TikTok :-)

Sure does stink! Ellison billionaire family are obsessed with taking knowledge and power away from people through control of media! It’s duty of every actor who believes in freedom of expression, art, and speech to boycott Paramount! share.google/JVcZ5YjkBIKx...

It does look like POLITICAL REASONS. The 🍊 💩 has a very thin skin, does not like criticism or much less make fun of.

Well, at least it will be funny when Trump kills the Skydance merger after extracting millions from the 60 minutes lawsuit which he never could have won in court and forcing the cancellation of the Late Show all the same. It's a shitty silver lining, but it's all we're getting.

If it’s “tRump” it does stink to high heaven All of it

President Stephen Colbert sounds cool.

No kidding. Colbert won Emmy for his lucid monologue every night. I guess the truth is now overrated and punishable by firing 🔥

He also has the highest ratings of the late-night crowd.

The edited answer on Fox that 47 gave about releasing the Epstein files should bring a lawsuit just like the one 47 brought about Harris’ answer to a question. It should be a multi million dollar settlement. $16 million sounds like a good number.

Every journalist at CBS should resign

This is why “business people” need to be reined back. When every decision is commodified, rule of law is compromised and the veracity of a situation is always secondary to what something costs. People that hide behind ‘it’s just business’ just mean money comes first, simple.

More Dems Talking Shop. No action. Paralysed.

You just know Trump said throw in Colbert and you got yourself a deal.

In our face bribe.

yep

CBS made Trump happy and that's all they cared about. So,after Stephen Colbert is gone from CBS next year,and Dexter Resurrection is over at Paramount, I'm not watching CBS,and,I'm canceling Paramount. You suck up to Trump,you lose me!

CBS will regret paying the extortionist. He'll make them pay again.

It's pretty clear what's happening there.

No different than CBS’ cancellation of The Smothers Brothers show in 1969

IT WAS BRIBERY…this how the 🍊conman wannabe tyrant HAS ALWAYS ROLLED!!! HE is nothing more than mobster in a crappy cheap suit, lousy grooming and makeup!

Obama going to jail for making up the Russia hoax. Schiff too. We really can’t wait. It’s happening. The best president in history. Best 6 months in presidential history. He really is on fire!!!! The democrats are being proved wrong again! Cities are becoming safer too!!!!! Non stop winning!

“if” ??

Yep, cancelled Paramount...filthy dirty! And not watching cbs

BOYCOTT PARAMOUNT Current/upcoming movies: The Naked Gun (sorry Liam Neeson), Mission Impossible, Vicious, Luna Park, Regretting You, Transformers, A Quiet Place Day One, You Should Be Dancing, Smile 2 NETWORKS Pluto, MTV, CBS, Nik, Showtime, Logo, Smithsonian, VH1, Comedy Central, Dreamworks

Has any "journalist" with 60 minutes resigned in protest yet?

Duh. 🙄

I am so embarrassed by the lack of courage of our democratic “leaders”

I blame the dodo birds. There aren't enough of them speaking out. 🙄

Better still - let's blame the Independent and Green parties. They're not speaking out enough either. It must be their fault.

He should challenge Lindsay Graham's senate seat.

America knows why. This whole "administration" reeks of corruption and chaos.

It's always 16 million ABC 16 million

Unfortunately, we will never know unless it was said out loud and the room was bugged, but I believe it 💯%!

This tells us how broken and corrupt our government and administration is. As plain as the nose on our faces!

Let'sgive CBS a new"eye" logo!

Ditto!

It’s always only about the money

America should already know. The rest of the world does.

Shari Redstone is an incompetent, cowardly nepo baby.

Morgan Freeman Narration: "It was, in fact, for political reasons."

I hate this so much

Promptly cancelled my Paramount subscription!

The entire republican, sorry fascism party, stinks.

Hey Liz - we dont need an investigation, really. If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck... well, you get the point. Someone should fucking so something.

No, let Paramount know by mass unsubscribing from their service on a planned date and time and tanking their stock!

Of course Stephen Colbert’s show was cancelled for political reasons. Trump is celebrating his “win” & has implied that Jimmy Kimmel & Jimmy Fallon are next.

It is obviously political, follow the numbers the number one late night talk show which was making money their quarterly statement says so even...

I hope Colbert takes them all to court.

"Your Honor, I was going along losing my employer $40 million a year, and then they fired me FOR NO GOOD REASON!" Good luck with that.

Another Bully Bribe✌🏼🤬

Once you give into an extortionist, they'll never leave you alone.

I think Letia James need to take a look at this "deal" . Another reason to IMPEACH REMOVE AND JAIL TRUMP AND HIS CABINET PLEASE JOIN CITIZEN IMPEACHMENT.COM AND CALL AND EMAIL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES DAILY, DEMAND THEY HONOR THEIR OATHS TO THE CONSTITUTION

Look out SNL!

“If”? Trump has already commented about it, that’s proof enough.

Upcoming Paramount releases to avoid: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...

Everything in trump regime does, because it is corruption!

Old news on this. New hotness is that they cancelled his show because he was skewering drumpf and they want their merger with skydance media to go through rather than get scuttled. It's probably a little of column A and B in this instance but it was definite political and deferential.

#BoycottCBS and their advertisers!!!

They gave him a year, tho. Burn It Down Stephen!

Colbert still has 10 months. Obviously, they didn't want to pay out his contract so, he is now free to continue the show and call out his employer and Trump.

AGREE! It's a shame because by TV automatically gets turned on to CBS. I watch ALL the NCIS/NIS, FBI, Equalizer, Elsbeth, Neighborhood, Tracker, Watson, Georgia & Mandy, 48 Hrs, Ghosts, Matlock, of course Colbert, and subscribe to Paramount. Ready to STOP ALL if he's canceled!

According to sources, late nite is kinda dying off, and the show was hemorrhaging money. That being said, if this really was just about money, Colbert was like #2 in late-night, so they'd offer him a different show in a better slot.

I believe it's broadcast TV in general. I've streamed all my content for over 10 years now. I hate commercials. I watched Colbert on YouTube. I'm sure CBS/Paramount will be state run media now with the bribes.

It is a bribe

Canceled my paramount plus subscription yesterday!

The Capitulating Broadcasting Service surrenders one more jewel from its crown.

Rotten things usually stink. And these are the rottenest rottenness rottenness of human beings.

Paramount made their extortion payment. The extortionist never stops at one.

Cancel your Paramount subscriptions

You can't watch Colbert! ... but everyone will get TWO DOLLS!

Of course it was political - and cowardice

This is no coincidence. Colbert was cut by CBS because of his views on our current administration. CBS is going to lose more audience beyond the millennial generation.

That's the problem, late night shows aren't as popular as they once were and ad revenue has been going down across the industry, not just CBS. This show however is expensive to put on with an expensive host. It keeps getting more expensive but they make less and less revenue each year.

Thanks for your response. Colbert has the #1 late night show so The Late Show was generating ad revenue for CBS. Another late night host commented that when a network has a #1 show in their lineup, you don’t just toss it. I still think that Felon47 pushed CBS to cancel the show.

Of course the Felon did this. He hates being laughed at. Let’s all mock him.

Of course he had something to do with it. Perhaps it's because of him, perhaps he hastened a decision CBS was already thinking about in their long term strategy. We'll know for sure if in a few years CBS is putting late night on the air again. 😆

EVERYTHING HE TOUCHES STINKS TO HIGH HEAVEN!!!

“It was financial,” they say about nuking the top-rated late-night host. Stephen, you’re off the leash now. GET THEM.

“It was financial,” they say as they pay $16 million dollars to the president who has threatened them and mocked them publicly without any merit.

💯

As if financial things make it okay to cave to fascism?

Let’s be real. It isn’t about caving to fascism. It’s about CBS/Paramount fat cats wanting a green light for their sale to Skydance. It’s always about money and power.

16 mil is nothing to them. Axing Colbert is their big loss.

Cancelled my subscription with paramount+ bc 🖕 them and Drumpf

Not the first time CBS has caved. Remember the Smother's Brothers in '69? They were anti Vietnam War.

resist.bot/petitions/PJ...

Canceled Paramount+

Yes this definitely was political. CBS had to bail out Paramount Plus. Colbert was up in viewership. Thank the big baby Perv Felon because he got his feelings hurt. MF

The Felon blackmailed CBS and their greed took precedence over ethics! We should make them pay for their cowardice and refusal to stand up for their company’s journalistic integrity! Clearly truth is not important to CBS and their greedy investors

Yep, soon all of the fucking media companies will be under Trump’s thumb and we won’t get any real news anymore. It’ll all be the bullshit that dear leader trump wants us to hear.

It stinks to Washington DC

If was for political favor. Period.

I think one of the most troubling things about today’s world is the intrusion of oligarchy. There are times in our lives where we have no choice except to interact with them. An example: Many vendors now only sell through Amazon. You can’t even go direct to get their product.

Just pitiful!!!

Anything that involves shitler, stinks
