Sen Adam Shif, D-Calif., And Sen Elizabeth Warren, D-Mas., The public said “it is worthy of” CBS’s decision “CBS’s decision” was politically motivated on Thursday to cancel the late show “with Stephen Collbert”.
Shif wrote, “Just taping with Stephen Collbert, who canceled his show. If the Paramount and CBS finished the late show for political reasons, the public knows that they are more entitled to better,” Shif wrote.
Warren said, “CBS called the CBS’s show three days after the CBBret’s show canceled the CBS -original company Paramount with Trump for its $ 16M colony – a deal that looks like a bribe. America wants to know if its show was canceled for political reasons. See and share your message.”

The CBS said in a statement that the long -lasting late night show would end in May 2026, but it was “purely a financial decision against a challenging background,” adding, “adding,” it is not related to the show’s performance, content or other matters in paramount in any way. “
There was speculation about the future of the late night programs owned by Paramount, including the “The Daily Show” on Comedy Central, as its employed corporate merger with Skydance Media is expected to occur at the end of this year.

Colbert made it vocal against Basti, called it “Big Fat Bribe”. He made fun of pressurizing the studio heads earlier this week.
“Some TVs type that blogging that Skydance once gets CBS, the desire of the new owners to please Trump ‘will pressurize the late night host and constantly Trump critic Stephen Colbert,” Colbert joke. “Okay, but how are they pressurizing Stephen Colbert … if they can’t find it?”
Several journalists and commentators have also speculated that the CBS and Paramount’s recent lawsuit settlement with President Donald Trump may create a “slippery slope” for news broadcasters earlier this month.
Trump sued his 2024 rival Kamala Harris’ “60 minutes” for “electoral intervention” on the interview editing, and the paramount was prolonged to deal with the suit that his lawyers had called the baseless.

“The Late Show”, which Kolbert took over from David Letterman in 2015, bowed into liberal politics in the Trump era and became a major platform for democratic politicians. Last month, Colbert welcomed Zoharan Mamdani, a candidate from New York City, before the socialist optimist received a Democratic nomination.
“The Late Show” first began to broadcast with Letterman in 1993.
