Late Show

ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live’s co-head writer, executive producer, and wife of the eponymous host Molly McNearney recently gave an interview with the entertainment news website Gold Derby that was published on Thursday, where she defiantly claimed the late night comedy show format isn’t going anywhere because people (i.e., liberals) still need them to help them make sense of the world.

Once again, somebody in the late night comedy show business is calling “bullshit” on my most recent late night guest count study. This time the man attacking my integrity, as well as that of my NewsBusters colleagues, was Pete Dominick, Stephen Colbert’s former warm-up act, on Sunday’s Sanity with Alisyn and Dave podcast.

Before CBS decided to cancel The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel was pessimistic about the future of the late night comedy show. Now that Colbert has been cancelled, Kimmel is singing a different tune in order to advance the narrative that Colbert’s cancellation had something to do with President Trump and that, actually, the state of late night is quite strong.

Lame duck comedian Stephen Colbert went on a tirade against President Donald Trump’s tariffs and heralded the supposedly impending doom of skyrocketing prices, and ended up beclowning himself in the process.

Closing out another week of Democratic guests, outgoing The Late Show host Stephen Colbert welcomed California Sen. Alex Padilla to CBS on Thursday to hope that he is successful in giving legal status to illegal immigrants because President Trump’s immigration policy is defined by its purposeful “brutality and cruelty.”

CBS’s Stephen Colbert’s invitation to Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker to appear on Tuesday’s The Late Show preceded the fleeing of Texas Democrats to that state in the wake of the state legislature’s redistricting efforts, but the developments were impossible for Colbert to ignore. Even Colbert, however, recognized the irony of complaining about gerrymandering to the governor of Illinois,…

It has now been over two weeks since CBS announced it was cancelling The Late Show with Stephen Colbert in May 2026. However, Colbert has responded by doubling down on the same jokes and guests that made viewers (and advertising dollars) turn away in the first place. According to a new MRC study, Colbert’s political jokes targeted conservatives and Republicans 95 percent of the time,…

CBS’s Stephen Colbert kicked off his week of Democratic guests on Monday by welcoming Clinton-era Labor Secretary Robert Reich to The Late Show to promote his new memoir. During their conversation, neither man displayed an understanding of the proper definition of a tax cut, while Reich smeared former President Ronald Reagan for allegedly making the country less inclusive for women…

That was fast. The Legacy Media circled the wagons to tell us “The Late Show’s” cancellation was, in no particular order:

The last time CBS’s Stephen Colbert welcomed former Vice President Kamala Harris to The Late Show, the two had a grand old time drinking beers and looking forward to her presidency. On Thursday, the mood was very different. Harris is now a failed presidential candidate, and Colbert is an outgoing host, but for the next ten months, he is still the host of Late Night DNC, and therefore…

CBS’s Stephen Colbert’s Wednesday interview with Michigan Sen. Elissa Slotkin hit all of the usual The Late Show beats: puffball questions, Democrat strategizing, and questions from the left. More specifically, the duo would discuss hot dogs, the far-left’s alleged “alpha energy,” and Israel’s military operations in Gaza.

The Trump administration recently put out a memo that says that federal employees should be allowed to talk about their religion at work, so naturally CBS’s outgoing host of The Late Show, “devout Catholic” Stephen Colbert, mocked the idea as provocative and even had a fake argument with keyboardist Corey Bernhard about whether to serve Moloch.

PBS host Christiane Amanpour fretted over “the state of freedom of speech in America” with reporter David Enrich, author of the anti-Trump book Murder The Truth: Fear, the First Amendment, and a Secret Campaign to Protect the Powerful. Enrich has become a popular figure on PBS and NPR of late, warning of the Trump administration’s “chilling effect” on media. Amanpour accused Trump of…

CBS canceled Stephen Colbert’s late-night show. Democrat Minnesota Gov. and failed vice-presidential candidate Tim Walz, who recently appeared on the show, said: “Stephen Colbert is the best in the business. He always told truth to power and pulled no punches. We need more of that, not less.” You might be forgiven for thinking Colbert’s job is to tell jokes. Some Democrats in full meltdown…
