This is the result in part when you divide your audience in half politically and spend every episode regurgitating "Orange man bad."

I stopped watching ever since this puke crawled out from under the sewer lid.

Good riddance.  Wish it happened sooner.  This guy was just crap.  Pure unadulterated crap.

I stopped watching The Late Show a few episodes after Letterman left.  Wasn’t the same.  Leno was a good replacement for Carson, but after that the guys that followed couldn’t match them.

In recent years, I wondered how could the show could find so many people to clap and cheer for every political joke.

No shit.

I mean, how could an audience composed solely of gender-confused 13 year-olds ever be profitable for advertisers in the first place?

They just ate the red ink for the purposes of propaganda … until they could no more.

I wish they would have “Howard Beale’d” him.

The audience of the show were handpicked.  You have to show your "I drank the kool-aid" certification card.

I used to love the Colbert Report.

Now those days seem like a dream from an alternate universe.

Good news for tax payers.  CBS just lost a massive tax deduction from their operating revenue/loses.
