I hope he is given a larger, broader stage to continue to share his thoughts. His is an important voice, especially in the US and where, and how, it is right now. (And, as an aside, I would love to see Pope Leo XIV as his guest on Thursday - what a blessing that would be!)
"The end of 'The Late Show' is a loss for anyone who values thoughtful conversations about faith, spirituality, and belief"
Indeed, this, in combination with his humanity, in large part, what makes Colbert so important. He uses his plentiful basket of skills as an entertainer, his curiosity and search for both knowledge and the truth to communicate with both his guests and his audience. There have been many great comedians and humorists in history; Colbert is carrying on that tradition from Will Rogers who appeared nightly on network radio and was syndicated in newspapers nearly a century ago, and whose commentaries can be applied directly to the politics of today! I consider both among the greatest of Americans.
So sad. It is hard to maintain faith when such tragedies stack up. I have never heard these things but I appreciate your historical perspective. Thank you.
When one door closes, another one opens. Colbert has many opportunities to spread his views on other forms of communication. In fact, he will be freer to use his wit. While Paramount will lose out, financially. Platforms are changing in different venues to reach the audience. One thing I can say about Trump negative mannerism towards democracy, forces many to think outside the box.

As if we needed another reminder that Trump destroys everything we love.
I watched Colbert primarily for the political commentary. Had no idea religion was important.
