The real reason CBS didn't let Colbert air his interview with James Talarico is that the Ellisons are still trying to buy Warner Bros.
David Ellison runs Paramount, which owns CBS.
He's using CBS to show what loyal oligarchs they are as they seek FCC approval for a WBD deal.

This is why @neatoday.bsky.social is taking legal action to demand long-standing protections for sensitive locations—like schools—be restored. #ICEOutSchools bit.ly/46368zA

I met with PA @pseaorg.bsky.social @neatoday.bsky.social teachers this week in DC. They shared heartbreaking stories from our community about kids who are too scared to come to school, afraid that they, or someone in their family, will be taken by ICE. The American people have had enough of this.
