CBS Gave Us All the Middle Finger...Colbert and Meidas?!! [View all]

By Ben Meiselas

CBS has destroyed itself for Donald Trump. They gave us all the middle finger again.

By the time its parent company, Paramount, merges with Skydance for $8 billion, it’s not even clear what is left of CBS as a news network. They gutted 60 Minutes. Their top executives left. Last night they announced they were getting rid of Stephen Colbert and the entire Late Night franchise.

I wrote an open letter to Stephen Colbert yesterday that has already been read over a million times. I called on Colbert to join us at the MeidasTouch Network. The responses we’ve received have been overwhelmingly positive.

The reality is that CBS does not have a real audience. None of these legacy networks do anymore. People watched CBS for the programs and hosts they trusted. CBS controlled the distribution on a key channel and people didn’t have other options. CBS took its audience for granted. They got rid of their best news shows and the top comedian today. Is CBS going to rebrand itself as a MAGA channel now? Good luck with that.
