#32Extremely disturbing to see the US Press go the same way as the Indian Press did under Modi.
America is over as we have known if for the last 95 years
All good things must come to an end and when one door closes, another opens.
Perhaps Colbert will sign with another network and bring bigger and better ideas to the small screen.

#33Really confused about this:
Why the flagging?

#34Honest, informed satire that's often more helpful in learning about real issues than "the news"; no surprise it's being cancelled. This and John Oliver are probably the last real holdouts in honest media in the current era, from what I've seen.

#35> "[it's] purely a financial decision" > "It is not related in any way to the show’s performance" Naively, these seem like contradictory statements.
It could be that Colbert's pay has outpaced advertising revenue.
Yeah, definitely not related to the buyout nor the close ties that the executive team has to Trump.

#36Why are these very interesting and topical threads being flagged? I'd love for someone pressing that button to explain the rationale.

The Late Show has an elderly and shrinking audience. And, Colbert hasn't been funny in years, nor has he been challenging the powers that be. When he did the White House Correspondents' Dinner and roasted George W Bush, that was extremely edgy. The Colbert Report was also wickedly funny. But the Late Show makes John Oliver look like Lenny Bruce.
The Late Show was the only show to have positive viewership rates from Q1 to Q2 while maintaining the largest share of viewers.
It's hardly a shrinking audience.

This is like telling someone to switch from Comcast to another ISP. The choices are limited. Oh and in this case, they're all owned by like two media conglomerates.

From my observations, Colbert's satire strictly represents one segment of the political spectrum. So it's either not informed, or not honest.

I think Gutfeld is number 1 overall, and has been for a while. But TV ratings overall are down so low, I haven’t had cable since 2003, and at the time people thought I was a radical. Now it seems like the people that have cable are the rare ones, Especially if there is noone over 45 in the house. There is a reason they all format their shows in a way that is easy to break up into youtube videos. If they didn’t, most…
> I think Gutfeld is number 1 overall, and has been for a while. From what I saw, Gutfeld is top in that time slot, but not for late night overall. I agree that cable is crazy to pay so much money for and still have frequent and long commercial interruptions.
Assuming this table (https://latenighter.com/news/ratings/late-night-tv-ratings-q...) is accurate (and I am reading it correctly), Gutfeld has more average number of viewers than the other late night shows.
