Stephen Colbert’s latest show will come to an end next May. This was announced by the presenter during the program this Thursday, ensuring that he had heard “just night”: “Next year will be our last season. The chain will end the late show in May, ”he revealed. Today, Donald Trump has celebrated the cancellation of the program.
Since his arrival to power, Stephen Colbert has been critical of Trump’s presidency. He had been in charge of the program for more than a decade and will be the last presenter in his history, since the CBS will not carry out a substitution. The program, which had been broadcasting since 1993, ends forever.
Although the CBS has clarified that it is “a purely financial decision”, dozens of Democratic politicians are questioning the motivation of the cancellation of the program following what happened in recent months. Paramount, owner of CBS, agreed to pay a few days ago an amount of 16 million dollars to the US president with the aim of dismissed a valid complaint against the 60 minute program.
At the same time, the American company is in the midst of an attempt to fusion with Skydance, for which it needs government approval. Colbert himself described this Paramount movement as “a great bribe.” Therefore, today Trump has published his opinion in Truth Social: «I love that Colbert has been fired. He had even less talent than audience, ”he said.
The Republican President has predicted that “Jimmy Kimmel will be the following”, since “he has even less talent.” On the other hand, he has praised Greg Gutfield, who would be the Colbert of the conservative Fox News: “It is better than everyone else together, including the NBC Cretin that has ruined the Tonight Show,” he written referring to Jimmy Fallon.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=auqezx6tmfi
