Crockeett's initial statement on this Trump/Republican/MAGA cancel culture (transcript):

I have been briefed somewhat about this Colbert situation, not fully and I'm waiting on a segment. Um, I have done Colbert a number of times if you pay attention. I've done the View a number of times. I've done Kimmel a number of times. I've done all these shows a number of times. We did receive um information suggesting that um the federal government did not shut down this segment.

Number one, that is my understanding that the federal government did not didn't shut this down and we will do an official statement once we get another official statement
that we anticipate is going to be coming um from Carr. All right. So, we will read
what they say and then we'll go from there.

It is our understanding that Colbert either Mr. Colbert or CBS decided that they just get more (distorted) and this was because of a fear that the FCC may say something to them and that there may have been advice to just have me on and then they could clear the issue.

Um it was my understanding that someone somewhere decided we just don't want to do that and instead we're going to just do it this way. So, I don't believe and and let me be clear, I don't have any love for the current FCC. I don't want anybody to believe that I do. I do not have any love for them.

I do think that there are additional layers um at play here. And so before we put
out our formal statement, I do want to make sure that Paramount, who is um the parent company, puts out theirs and we have exactly what happened um versus kind of the mania that just so happened to play out on the very first day of early voting, which feels kind of (distorted).

Given Crockett's been on multiple times, across the networks, including the View (which has also been strong armed over Talarico) CBS should have just shut their mouths.

But I'm damn glad they didn't! LMAO!
