Just after various late-night hosts made it clear where they stand on the issue of The Late Show With Stephen Colbert being cancelled, the chairman of the Federal Communications Commission weighed in with his own — quite different — opinion.

CBS parent Paramount insists that this week's decision to cancel Steven Colbert's “Late Show” was strictly financial, and had nothing to do with politics.

The cancellation from CBS comes after Colbert criticized his parent company on-air for their $16 million settlement with Trump.

Last week, Donald Trump claimed he 'absolutely loves' the fact that Stephen Colbert's long-standing talk-show has been axed, and now, the presenter has issued a damning three-word statement in response.

Stephen Colbert's Late Show will end in May 2026 as CBS faces financial concerns, while politicians like Bernie Sanders question if the cancellation relates to Trump criticism.
