Mid-level MAGA media voices have melted down over the attention paid to Stephen Colberts final episode of The Late Show.
Colbert wound up his 11-year-run on the CBS late-night show on Thursday night, after the network controversially axed the long-running program last July.
The cancellation came just three days after Colbert, 62, slammed the networks MAGA-friendly parent company, Paramount, for its $16 million settlement with Trump.
I believe this kind of complicated financial settlement with a sitting government official has a technical name in legal circles: its big, fat bribe, Colbert said on his show at the time.

Fux Noise and SnoozeMax hosts complained. The article goes on to show Colbert drew a bigger audience than any of the complainers.

(721 posts)I describe his shows as hard to watch and flat out boring. He might be better off switching to a Late Show format. He can do whatever he wants because he's leasing the time slot.
