Stephen Colbert’s ongoing dispute with his CBS bosses
from The Daily Article Hosted by The Denison Forum
On The Late Show Tuesday night, Stephen Colbert told viewers that CBS told him an interview he taped with Texas Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico could not be aired. The show then presented the interview through its YouTube channel, where FCC rules do not apply. As of this morning, it has been viewed more than 7.4 million times, roughly triple what the CBS program draws each night. With his show ending in May, we might wonder if the fact that he has little to lose in his conflict with the network contributes to his willingness to stage it. If so, this would be a principle worth considering for reasons that far transcend the story it illustrates.
