Sen. Elizabeth Warren: "CBS canceled [Stephen] Colbert's show just three days after Colbert called out CBS owner Paramount for its $16 settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery. America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons."

What was done to 60 Minutes was terrible. Period. The people concerned about what happened to Colbert know the history of authoritarianism & that authoritarians target comedians & entertainers bc they tell the truth about the state unbridled by journalistic norms. Colbert is a truth-teller.
This is absolutely, astonishingly wrong & uninformed. It is precisely because of Colbert’s role as a comedian that he could be one of the main truth tellers in American society for the past decade.
The story at Paramount-CBS isn't Colbert.

It's 60 Minutes.

If you're valorizing comedians and entertainers for their truth-telling more than journalists, you're part of the problem.

All the entertainment could vanish tomorrow and we'd survive. Not so much, if reporting did.

Since Congress’s allotted funds have already been improperly unallocated, U.S. citizens are questioning whether they are legally required to continue paying federal taxes.

I became a writer because I wanted to be Harriet M. Welsch.

Specifically, I wanted to be Michelle Trachtenberg going on adventures, meeting eccentric adults with Rosie O’Donnell, spying on Eartha Kitt, and writing about how interesting life could be if you just paid attention.

My heart hurts.
