Never did.

Nope. Not for ONE MINITE.

Never did, never will.

CBS has decided that they no longer intend to provide Emmy award winning entertainment. It's all going to be pandering nonsense after Stephen's final show.

I don’t think anyone aver bought that lie.

It was never a business decision that had anything to do with ratings. It was a decision about a sale. Tons of money. A woman who wanted her business sold no matter the human cost. To appease an authoritarian.

Shit, go back further and ask was Joy Reid being fired from MSNBC a business decision.

Did anyone ever believe that?

It’s all about business. Yes. All of this is about oligarchs, their busy-ness, and their single-minded mission to make money and keep money.

Nobody ever thought it was a business decision.

Think double speak!

Ezra Klein probably

Wasn't there a network executive on the Epstein list?

Nobody with more than two brain cells to rub together.

Anybody who believed that in the first place is a dipshit!!!

Did anyone ever think that?

I never thought it was a business decision.

Did anyone ever think it was?

I don’t.

I think it's likely that Colbert's show wouldn't have been renewed at the end of his current contract because late night talk shows are all losing money... but the decision to announce the end of his show a week before the Paramount Global deal closed was absolutely about placating Trump.

Or course it was

I doubt anybody ever did.

I do. At least mostly. This one is different, though. While the networks have been looking to wind these down for many years, the manner in which this took place and the direct involvement of the FCC and White House adds a new, terrifying, layer to this madness.

🤣

For CBS it was For Trump it was all about his fragile little ego

There a bunch of people who think Kimmel is a business decision by ABC because late night is dying.

All three networks have movie and TV studios under their respective corporate umbrellas. The late night shows still serve as important promotional vehicles. Absolutely wild.

And yet…

Obeying in Advance is a financial/business decision, one made by a large number of German companies and some multinational companies in the mid 1930's. Already in 2025, several American and some multinational companies are making the same financial/business decision.

Who in the hell thought that?

Trump's MAGAts do. They're so fucking gullible.

Funny business

Not that kind of business decision, not his ratings or audience numbers. No, it was a business decision to preserve Nexstar's merger. Trump will keep doing this. Just like he pounced on the Paramount merger.

check out Jimmy Kimmel in a gulag you don't realize it now but your next on the list IMPEACH jesus hitler now boycott AMERICA AND EVERY ONE IN IT this place is now a shithole country it needs patriots to save it

Look at the pattern: CBS wants a merger, Colbert’s gone. Nexstar targets ABC, and Kimmel’s silenced. Now NBC’s in the wings—what government favor are they chasing? This isn’t just media strategy, it’s political theater with a body count. Seth Meyers, consider this your curtain call warning.

Did anyone ever believe it?

Naaaaaaa!

The Epstein Files….Rabbit.

I never did.

It was a quid pro quo. Do this for me and I will okay the merger.

It is all a business decision. Corporations want to make money and this is the cost of favored status. For Trump everything is a business decision. Power equals money. For the Heritage Foundation folks, it is a mix of ideology and power. Orban was the honored speaker at CPAC for years.
