Trump Denounces Colbert After CBS Cancels 'The Late Show'

In a move that has shaken the world of late-night television, CBS announced the cancellation of 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert' after a successful ten-year stint. U.S. President Donald Trump did not hold back in his criticism, labeling host Stephen Colbert 'talentless.'

Speaking at a White House press conference, President Trump predicted similar fates for other prominent late-night figures, including Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel. Trump expressed on his Truth Social platform, "I absolutely love that Colbert got fired. His talent was even less than his ratings," emphasizing his disdain for Colbert.

CBS officials maintain the decision was driven purely by financial constraints and unrelated to the show's performance. The news has left other industry figures, such as Andy Cohen, dismayed. Cohen lamented the show's end, hailing Colbert as a singular talent who produced a brilliant show.
