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.

    Similar staffing? 200 people work on Colbert’s show. I agree he can downsize and move to an online only model, but it will definitely negatively impact the quality of the show.
