@sonhouse saidYes, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert was reportedly losing money at CBS. Sources indicate the show was losing tens of millions of dollars annually, with estimates ranging from $40 million to $50 million. CBS executives cited the show's financial losses as the primary reason for its cancellation, despite its top ratings in the late-night landscape.

CBS paid Trump some 16 million dollars in a law suite brought by Trump and it looks like he demanded Colbert get fired.
CBS says, just financial decision which is total BS because Colbert was the number one late night host just nominated for an Emmy.
So I wonder who is next? Laurence ...[text shortened]... ed fed funding for NPR.
It is clear he is after anyone who criticizes the poor misunderstood Trump.

@Arkturos saidThe late shows used to be funny and enjoyable for all to watch before turning in. Now they are political and geared towards one side.

@Earl-of-Trumps saidRight, #1 on ratings, nominated for an emmy.

@Cliff-Mashburn saidIf truth be told there are untold households where Fox is always on in the background.
FOX has three times more viewers than CNN, MSN, etc. , that's why all their talk shows are getting canceled.
Who's getting duped?
They nuture their tribe by osmosis.
@Cliff-Mashburn saidIs that all of them combined?

Anyway, the dupes are the Fox Entertainment viewers. If you bothered fact checking anything or watch news from around the world you would already know that. Fox are all about opinions and entertainment. It's not news. They admitted that themselves.
Also, just to make sure it's mentioned; argumentum ad populum is a well-known fallacy.
@Lundos saidCouldn't agree more. When your defense in a billion dollar lawsuit is that you dont claim to present the facts but rather opinions, you would think that people would wake up and go elsewhere, but it seems they would rather hear good news about their bad habits.

Bad habits include racism, misogeny, prejudice, sexism, xenophobia, bigotry....
@Mott-The-Hoople saidDude, you prevent nothing but snickering, pointing and people making fun of your ignorance which is of such a level, the only way to describe it is: fvcking inbred.
I see I have prevented you from using lewd perverted sexual terms indiscriminately
You can thank me later 😉
