      Just one more week until the world forgets that Colbert was a thing.

      Edit: If only Colbert had as many viewers as this has downvotes, he may not have gotten fired…. what a shame.

      How magnanimous of CBS to graciously permit the internet to watch content they didn’t pay for, produce, or film, on a television network they don’t own.

      How can you get a takedown on a public access show hosted by someone you cancelled?

      Fuck CBS.

      Only one top level comment so far and it’s at -250 in 6 minutes. Gotta get the popcorn out for this one.

      I’m impressed how Bari Weiss snd CBS perpetually make the wrong drcision. Really speaks to their authoritarian tendencies.

      CBS Spokesperson:

      > “Stephen Colbert’s return to Monroe in the ‘Only in Monroe’ episode was financed and produced by CBS Studios and was posted on Stephen Colbert’s YouTube channel in collaboration with Monroe Community Media and ‘The Late Show’s’ YouTube channels. As is our regular practice, we send copyright notices to unauthorized websites that post copyrighted content from CBS and our network/studio talent such as Stephen Colbert. However, for this episode, we have decided to waive further enforcement of this standard industry practice until additional review.”

      God forbid that the people who paid for the production not want others to steal views from a public access channel in Michigan.

      Pretty awful of people trying to make CBS out to be the bad guys when CBS isn’t the ones stealing views for something they didn’t even make.

      Zzzzz
      I didn’t read the article.

      I don’t watch colbert.

      CBS is a shit channel that bent the knee.

      So while I may have technically been wrong.

      I can still from my heart say fuck CBS and all the various shows they run.
