It is just a TV show but censorship is what we knew happens in Russia and China but not here. Well, we were wrong!

I found the show's close rather wistful, the Sullivan Theater inside a snow globe, the chime playing the show's theme song. If there is any real karma in this world, I hope this bites CBS/Paramount where it hurts most...greatly reduced viewership and the resultant loss of ad revenue. For those not paying attention, this sad episode of naked censorship will undoubtedly change broadcast television from this point on.

Saw the Last Show.
As promised Paramount + canceled.
I am gonna miss Jon Stuart (he's also on paramount). Guess I will just have to catch him on the YouTubes.

Why pay for CBS when an antenna gets it for free?

**** Catholic League Slimes Stephen Colbert ****
"Stephen Colbert offended Catholicism. It's time the media stopped portraying him as a poor Catholic soul who was victimized by corporate greed."

Bet $50 Stephen Colbert is the first guest on SNL in a few months.
