  Subservience to the FCC and the administration is the excuse. The real reason is that David Ellison is afraid the dem might win.

  The majority owner of CBS is Paramount Global, which itself is controlled by Skydance Media, a company led by David Ellison (son of Larry Ellison), following a significant acquisition of the Redstone family’s stake in mid-2025.

  It’s subservience because of fear.

    The only fear for Ellison and Weiss is ending their genocide.

  After the announcement that he was cancelled I was irritated how silent he was in the issue. I guess it had legal reasons. So happy that he stopped giving a fuck.

  It’s not subservience. CBS is literally run by zio wackos. They’re steering the genocidal bus.

  I though Colbert was cancelled from the first of this year?

    I think he’s cancelled in May or thereabouts. It’s a very slow cancellation.
