nnDave Portnoy blasted Stephen Colbert as ‘arrogant’ after CBS canceled The Late Show, calling the decision inevitable capitalism due to $40-50M annual losses. He condemned Colbert for criticizing CBS’s parent company over a $16M Trump settlement days before cancellation, calling it reckless for an unprofitable show. Portnoy contrasted Colbert’s 200-person team with Barstool’s efficiency, noting podcasts now outperform late-night TV. Politicians questioned political motives, but Portnoy dismissed this as ignoring economics. Trump celebrated the cancellation, calling Colbert ‘untalented’ amid the fallout.
