#Colbert

63 posts55 participants4 posts today

While this issue is being spun by everyone, as a fan & subscriber to Paramount+

It was near impossible to watch the Late Show / Colbert on Paramount+.

You couldn’t watch it live, you could only watch it after it aired & only a few episodes, even YouTube was hard.

I agree, the #Colbert cancellation was in a grey area. Colbert is NOT off the air, NOT silenced. For now. But the fact that CBS used the cancellation (which they may have done anyway) to appease the government is not something we should ignore, especially in the context of #CBS having already paid a bribe to Trump in the 60 Minutes settlement.

Trump's FCC may be planning to censor Colbert directly.

Happily, #SouthPark is not broadcast, so not under FCC regulation.

Continued thread

"Trump has shown us again and again that he will use every lever of power to silence his critics and punish his enemies.

Now he has the FCC and a major news network doing his bidding."
