  Correct, they refused to air it not out of fear of the FCC, but out of fear of what Talarico would say.

    And it’s a hell of a brave thing Colbert and crew are doing in speaking out.

    They’re patriots at a time when speech isn’t free.

      He can’t get fired again. It’s an obvious move for Colbert and crew to make.

        He’s pretty much embraced this. It’s kind of funny. His network ad reads for other CBS shows are literally “[name of show], watch it or don’t, I don’t care. I leave in may” lol
