Bill O’Reilly Talking Points
Colbert Canceled S
tephen colbert has been vaporized, canceled by CBS. Donald Trump is celebrating. Liberal Hollywood is out-
raged! Regular folks don’t care. Good night, everybody. But not so
fast. This is a fascinating story when you examine the power angle. The once dominant network television media is completely falling apart. According to the Nielsen ratings
people, fewer than 20% of Americans now watch any network programming. Why? Because it’s largely boring and traditional Americans resent the liberal culture the networks embrace all day and all night. Mr. Colbert basically committed performance suicide. When he took over for David Letterman 10 years ago, he was coming off the red-hot
satire of Jon Stewart’s Daily Show. Over the past five years Colbert has lost more than a million viewers, his numbers descending to just above 2 million households daily. Profits crashed. The primary reason is Colbert’s hatred for Trump and the MAGA brigades. All the late-night hosts have talent. Impossible to do the job if you don’t. Letterman was very quick and edgy. My debates with him are legendary, especially the one where he called me a thug but couldn’t back it up when I challenged him. On my final appearance with Dave, his audience gave me a standing ovation. Letterman was cranky but didn’t
often display rank hatred. He invited me on 16 times and wrote me a gracious note after every appearance.
Jay Leno was essentially a stand-
up comedian, not deeply invested in promoting politics. Same with Jimmy Fallon, although he understands the far-left culture at NBC. Jimmy Kimmel has drifted into the
political swamp, mostly because he despises the president. I like Kimmel personally. But he’d be wise to spread the satire around. ABC will be the next place to purge extremists. So, Stephen Colbert leaves the CBS
stage. New ownership is looming, and Skydance Media apparently doesn’t want a leftist pep rally every night. Hollywood will take care of Colbert, so we will see him again. I bet Donald Trump can’t wait.
Bill O’Reilly hosts The O’Reilly Update, heard daily on more than 100 radio stations, and is the author of the bestseller The United States of Trump: How the President Really Sees America.
