CBS and its parent company, Paramount, have set an end date for one of the last public pipelines to some version of the truth.

On Thursday, CBS announced that it was cancelling the long running The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. The cancellation news came just days after Stephen Colbert, a critic of Donald Trump, called out Paramount, the parent company of CBS, over its $16 million settlement with the president.

Nearly three weeks after Paramount settled, the left-wing staff still does not appear to be heading for exits.

Network late-night shows have been losing viewers for years, but Colbert‘s program is primed for a ratings bump right now.
