Colbert told his audience at New York’s Ed Sullivan Theater that he had learned Wednesday night that after a decade on air, “next year will be our last season. … It’s the end of ‘The Late Show’ on CBS. I’m not being replaced. This is all just going away.”

The audience responded with boos and groans.

“Yeah, I share your feelings,” the 61-year-old comic said.

Three top Paramount and CBS executives praised Colbert’s show as “a staple of the nation’s zeitgeist” in a statement that said the cancellation “is purely a financial decision against a challenging backdrop in late night. It is not related in any way to the show’s performance, content or other matters happening at Paramount.”

For once, I believe CBS.

Nothing lasts forever.
I agree, and I agree with the article that suggest that younger viewers generally prefer online highlights. Many late night shows are being canceled, and many late night hosts (both conservative and liberal) are being cut. What bothers me is how liberals are politicizing this and threaten more investigations against Trump.

Not to ramble on, but I wonder if the pandemic had anything to do with it? Since then, so many people have been changing their habits in everyday life.

I dont think so. I think it is mostly a cultural shift. Just like how the internet is killing newspapers, YouTube, TikTok, and other social media platforms are

Not enough viewers = not enough ratings = not enough advertisers = financial reasons. Go woke, go broke. Jimmy Kimmel is probably next.
And I am sure the liberals will blame Trump too as an "attack on free speach." But, in reality, people are just getting their entertainment and news sources elsewhere like how the internet shorts replaced the paper newspaper.
