For the first time, CBS has directly acknowledged that they were losing $40 million a year by keeping Stephen Colbert on the air

https://variety.com/2026/tv/news/cbs-late-night-deal-byron-allen-15-million-profit-1236761806/

Notably that $40 million figure had been thrown around before as an "industry rumor" and both Colbert himself and Jimmy Kimmel had suggested that it was just made up by internet trolls

Many people are saying this
>>
>>220845398
>Under the arrangement CBS has with Allen, the entrepreneur and media owner covers 100% of the production costs and pays CBS a fee for his use of the time period. Allen in turn sells the advertising that appears alongside his shows. No matter the viewership or the ratings for the time period, CBS gets paid the same fee
This will probably become the norm as TV becomes more unprofitable

Also the first time Colbert actually mentioned GUTFELD! (during his final episode). Never acknowledged the #1 late show up until that moment.

In turn, GUTFELD! said he'd have Colbert on the show noting that he's met the guy way back when and he was cool.

CBS fired him because they wanted the Paramount deal to not be fucked by Trump stepping in. Then Colbert pointed it out and he got fired. He was losing 40,000,000 a year? Ok, Paramount Plus has lost over 2 billion since it's inception. how does that make sense? Why are the complaining that nobody is watching TV and yet they insist on forcing everything exclusively to streaming?

A network is never gonna pull a show like that in just a couple seasons. The Daily show took like 5 years to build a following. They are going to go full sunk cost and double down for 15 years until they can safely retire the host rather than admit the expects made a mistake. This is exactly what happened with Trevor Noah.

How long will broadcast tv be a viable delivery mechanism for propaganda? It's mostly older people who still watch network tv and they're dying off. It's like getting control over Newsweek. Somebody still reads it but the reach is only a small fraction of what it once was.

when colbert first started out he tried to play both sides like he did on Comedy Central, but the ratings were starting to decline
so around 2016 he went full in on ORANGE MAN BAD which actually did boost the ratings for a while
but there's only so many times you can come out and say HE'S... LE BAD! before people start getting bored. Yeah he is bad, but what else is going on in the world? why are you all running the exact same playbook?
so ratings started declining again until the eventual cancellation
it doesn't help that CBS are after a very specific audience which is like 18-40 something like that, maybe younger than 40, but only really attract people 50+
zoomers don't really care about late night television or politics, millennials on the other hand rely on streaming to get their news
>>
>>220845398
Don't they earn from advertising? How do they arrive at the figure? It's like USSR/state media in any heavily centralized regions. State organ mouthpieces propagate what the oligopoly want disseminated as the official "reel-ality". The investment is recouped from total control of a country's asset ownership/mode of production.
>>
>>220846568
>Don't they earn from advertising? How do they arrive at the figure
The simple thought is
>the show costs them $100 million a year to produce
>they make $60 million in advertising

Hence they're now in the green because

later seasons of GOT were 100+ a season.
Colbert ran every night 5 days a week, with an live audience of 400 people. The host will take a big chunk of it, 89k per epiosde / 15 million a year. So that leaves 25 million.
Yearly salaries for writers, directors, producers, lightning crew, sound crew, the band, the broad cast crew, a legal team. You need a team to manage the live audience, you need a team to manage the celebrities guests, you need people handling their travel expenses to be on the show. Theres the cost of all the equipment, cost of upkeep at the theater, taxes.
It's not really that absurd of a number. Shit adds up fast.

Colbert show has been running for 11 years. His ratings has stayed pretty predictable in that time.
3 years decided he was worth keeping and renewed his contract.
they managed to over estimate his worth by 40+ million dollars.
All while they are trying to get a billion dollar merger to happen.

Basically do you believe that CBS is so inept they completely botched the value of one their prestige shows? Or do we think Trump is corrupt enough to abuse his power to get what he wants.
CBS sucks, but you have to assume they at least have some business sense right? And even the most die hard MAGA supporter has to admit Trump is corrupt as fuck

>>220849787
It’s about tax benefits that are being judged by courts. Billions in tax breaks and subsidies. The merger was approved but the big money still is in flux. 40 million was said last year btw. The show makes money on the back end, YouTube and streaming. It’s about building a catalogue. He’s usually the most popular late night host but trump wants him gone and his judges are holding up tax breaks and subsidies.

>cost more to produce
ITS NOT THE PRODUCTION COST YOU DUMB FUCK
ITS THE LOSS OF THE USE OF THE TIME SLOT AND LOST AD REVENUE FOR SOMETHING PEOPLE WOULD ACTUALLY WATCH

LEARN TO FUCKING READ!!!!!

Where did the article EVER mention it was from PRODUCTION COSTS you stupid illiterate fuck?

>>220852615
Furthermore:

Imagine you have land, like beach front property or something highly desirable, and your entire goal is to make money with this land (not to live on it yourself). Do you put a single shack up and rent it cheap, or do you put a huge apartment complex or something that will earn you MORE money? They're losing on the money they are missing out on. Ad revenue isn't what it could be for the time slot because Colbert has shit ratings. Would YOU pay to run an ad when nobody is watching???

FUUUUCCKKKK YOU PEOPLE ARE FUCKING RETARDED!

Bro they tried to put Trump in jail for listing a property higher than someone else said it was (which is just selling things) and some old lady saying she raped him 35 years ago or whatever

You don't think they'd jump at the chance to prove Trump was making the media do shit (like the Twitter Files proved that Biden and dems did)?

lmao I know you were still in diapers at the time but Colbert's Late Show ratings during his first 6 months or so were abysmal until Trump won the primary and then he started doing "le haha funny Trump" jokes, suddenly every democrat boomer and their sister were watching this shit to see how "Colbert was gonna stick it to le Drumpf!"

This show was never anything more than dying idiots living vicariously through Colbert that they could give old Orange Man a piece of their mind

Five days a week, gotta pay the host tens of millions, gotta pay a team of a dozen or so writers, gotta pay the band, gotta pay the camera crew and production staff, gotta pay the ushers, gotta pay the booking agents and producers, gotta pay the set designers, don't have to pay the guests but do have to pay for their accomodations, transport, perks, etc.

The $40M might be bullshit but the economic problems of late night have been known forever. Jay Leno had to take something like a 50% pay cut in 2012 or so because NBC straight up said his salary was the difference between the show being profitable or not and ratings now are a quarter of what they were then.
>>
>>220847866
It was likely still profitable as recently as two years ago. TV ratings have continued to decline steadily but also spending on TV advertising suddenly started dropping through the floor industry-wide when the Fed started raising interest rates and companies started tightening their belts.

t. works in advertising

Indeed, the network executives are straight-up True Believers and if the network loses money on the propaganda they're shilling, then so what, the end justifies the means.

Colbert making money is more believable to leftards than the idea that the government was doing nefarious things when it ordered you not to see your grandma while she died.

Let's not pretend CBS wasn't working with the State Department.

$40 million a year when your backed by the US Government, isn't much at all. Not to mention the favors and protection you get from powerful people inside the government for pushing their propaganda.

bullshit cope. CBS was FORCED to fire Colbert as part of their settlement pay out to Trump for their fake ass interview with Kamala. That's getting off light, when they, ABC, and NBC should be off the air forever for their roles in lying to Americans for the Democrat Communist Party of China. None of which reported on Pras going to PRISON for funneling illegal campaign funds to Obama, or anything illegal Biden did with his son at the expense of all Americans

why would you think you need to pay millions to a boomer to read jokes someone else wrote and to ask question to celebs that someone else wrote down for him on cue cards.
Do you know how many people are perfectly capable to do that?
Do you know how many live streamers are perfectly able to hold a "show" all on their own every fuckin day? They dont need a telepromer or a writing staff to say something
