User Posted May 22 Report Posted May 22 5 minutes ago, Moonbox said: Any mergers like this require FCC approval, and the FCC chair is a Trump crony who's already told the Senate the FCC isn't an independent agency. 🙃 So… you can’t explain how approval of Trump is required. You can’t explain how he did anything here to threaten Colbert. Got it. The President doesn’t have the authority to directly direct the FCC and even if he exerts pressure as Executive branch, any decisions made by FCC are still bound by law and legal review and balance of powers. The FCC can’t just say no, or make arbitrary or capricious decisions, as they wouldn’t hold up to legal review or challenges. You and others are making lazy ignorant inferences on vague assertions with no real evidence evidence. Meanwhile, just ignoring the evidence that is obvious showing this show loses millions every year… but of course something like a 40 million loss a year isn’t possibly why the show was cancelled nope!

Amateur ^OPINIONS mean NOTHING. The FACT is, it's total impact which matters. Quote Stephen Colbert's run on The Late Show concluded in May 2026. During its 11-year run, the show operated as a massive promotional engine for corporate sibling properties under CBS and Paramount, utilizing A-list guest appearances and sponsored comedy bits. Instagram +4 The cross-promotion strategy was deeply integrated into the broadcast: Network Synergy: The show frequently hosted stars from CBS's top-rated procedurals, such as NCIS and FBI, as well as marquee reality franchises like Survivor. Paramount+ Integration: Segments often showcased exclusive clips, trailers, and lead-in interviews for streaming-exclusive series on the Paramount+ Platform, helping drive subscriber growth for the network's parent company. Syndicated Properties: The show regularly cross-promoted films and syndicated media distributed by the overarching Paramount Pictures studio, keeping corporate assets at the forefront of pop culture.

Tough titty said the kitty when the milk went sour. There's plenty of proof for Paramount's merger ambitions. All you have to do is OPEN YOUR EYES. Don't YOU EVER get tired of being WRONG? LMAO US clears way for $8 billion Paramount-Skydance merger LMAO Quote FCC approval follows settlement of Trump's '60 Minutes' lawsuit Commission Chairman Carr says the approval is unrelated to a civil lawsuit Lone Democratic commissioner on FCC dissents from decision July 24 (Reuters) - The $8.4 billion merger between Paramount Global (PARA.O), opens new tab and Skydance Media won approval from U.S. regulators on Thursday, clearing the way for a sale that evolved into a clash over press freedom in the era of President Donald Trump. The deal will put well-known entertainment properties including the CBS broadcast television network, Paramount Pictures, and the Nickelodeon cable channel under the ownership of tech scion David Ellison.

When you alienate millions of viewers by calling them stupid every night, you're going to fail. And he did. Indeed he did. I suspect colebernt saw an opportunity for success and jumped at it with both feet. He was...cute...on Jon Stewart's show. He can deliver a joke well. But...then came Trump and with him, a cause. Something to exploit. A quick path to fame. Woke was raging with actual social credence at the time. Colebernt hit the gravey train. For about 2 years. But like all fads...woke faded. B'bye colebernt. Quote Its so lonely in m'saddle since m'horse died.

You and others are making lazy ignorant inferences on vague assertions with no real evidence evidence. The point is that the FCC chair, Brendan Carr, has repeatedly echoed Trump’s attacks on media outlets and floated regulatory scrutiny in the same breath. You don’t need a literal order from the President for that to create political pressure. The message is already being sent. “The show lost money” doesn’t disprove that dynamic — it just means there may have been multiple incentives at play instead of one single cause.
