"After the Monday broadcast concluded, he did interview Talarico. His team then uploaded it to 'The Late Show' YouTube channel. ...

As of this writing on Tuesday afternoon, Colbert’s interview of Talarico, which streamed on YouTube, as well as X, TikTok and Instagram, has been viewed well over 15 million times. That’s six times more views than if CBS had simply let Colbert interview the Texan on the broadcast."

"Not only was Colbert to tell Texas State Representative James Talarico, a Democrat running for U.S. Senate, he was no longer invited to appear, Colbert was ordered not to talk about why the interview was canceled, nor was he to mention Talarico’s name or show his face.

Colbert didn’t take kindly to CBS’s bashing of free speech. So he ignored his bosses."

"In an attempt to cozy up to the Trump administration, the network tried to stop Colbert from doing an interview Monday night.

When you read why, you’ll understand the reason everyone needs to see it.

CBS brass insisted Colbert cancel a guest scheduled for that night’s broadcast of 'The Late Show.'”
