I’ll note that Colbert has the highest viewership (and therefore ad revenue) in his time slot. This is almost surely about the Ellison family, which now controls CBS, wanting to silence him.

The point is, it is a fact that those late night shows are an anachronism. It is plausible that they would still be doing this even if Trump didn’t win, and wasn’t in a position to extort them. Heck, I think it would be more likely, because Colbert would have had less political material if our politics weren’t so bonkers.
