Sen. Ed Markey (D-MA) has a meltdown because Stephen Colbert had his unprofitable show cancelled. Markey is demanding answers. The show wasn’t funny. That’s the answer.

Why the fck would a politician care if a late night talk show was cancelled????????????????????????????

Because Democrat politicians idolize leftist celebrities and hate regular Americans.

Colbert pushed all of the leftist propaganda. The public is tired of it… not everybody in the country is fringe left. And he pushed vaccines, like he was a spokesperson, which left a bad taste in a lot of people’s mouths.

The vaccine push and constant attacks against President Trump turned away too many viewers to make his show profitable. It’s Colbert’s own fault he got canceled. Capitalism works.

True that. In addition, he was losing between $40-$50 million a year. Numbers do not lie.

No, Colbert is irresponsible. Took his job for granted and WAS NOT FUNNY. He also is a Capital insurrectionist.

I’m surprised they kept Colbert on for that long.

Literally one of the worst shows period

Wasn’t funny in the least.

Bless your heart @SenMarkey @EdMarkey imagine, @CBSNews was paying @colbertlateshow $20 million a year to lose $40 million a year in profits!! What is the @ABC @JimmyKimmelLive @jimmykimmel ratio?🤔

@SenMarkey @EdMarkey @CBSNews @colbertlateshow @ABC @JimmyKimmelLive @jimmykimmel Markey is proving why Democrats should never be in charge of money.

😂 basically.

How about doing what you were sent to congress to do and stop playing politics every fucking minute of the day. I swear politicians are becoming more retarded every day.

@RogerStomberg Politicians are mostly useless people who won the lottery by getting paid $174K a year to essentially do nothing.

Dems are freaking out about this not because they care about Colbert. They’re freaking out because one of their loyal soldiers has been struck down and they don’t know who will replace him.

No one will replace Colbert. That’s why the Left really is panicking.

Markey really scraping the bottom of the barrel for something to criticize. The only time a liberal is happy is when they have nothing to be happy about.

Markey is showing how out of touch with the American people he is.

Watching them freak out has been more laughs than the entire Colbert run.

Very well said. It’s truly hilarious.

When in our lifetimes has any politician made a stinker over some talk show being cancelled. This is so weird…. Unless🤔

Shows how his priorities are just wrong.

Without the Colbert Show, where is the @DNC going to get their news?

@SenMarkey is too stupid to understand free markets, advertising, return on investment and the FACT that Liberalism and Socialism is NOT going to bring in a wide audience.

Democrats can’t wrap their brains around financial accountability. Colbert cost 2.5X more to produce than it earned. Not understanding this illustrates why Democrats should never be in charge of the federal budget again.

@SenMarkey If you want to bitch about something CBS took off FBI International and FBI Most Wanted, much more entertaining than Colbert.

Ed

Reason Colbert was fired: Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Adam Schiff...UNLIKEABLE NON-ENTERTAINERS FEATURED AS GUESTS. PLEASE. Letterman did stupid pet tricks. Colbert did Stupid Leftist Tricks.

They are losing money. That's the answer.

Host paid $20 million/yr. Show cost $100 million/yr. Show lost $40 million/yr. Show had 2 million viewers out of audience of 350 million. Advertisers weren't buying. Dem answer: force taxpayers to subsidize what they won't voluntarily watch.

He must be watching gutfeld and thinking it was Stephen Colbert because the late show was never a entertaining hit show

Do you know anyone who has watched Colbert within the past decade? 15 years even?

@KerseyPaul80443 Never forget what a sick man Colbert is— if you know you know 🤢🤮

I'm pretty sure if Sen. Ed Markey (D-MA) was paying $100M per year to air the Colbert Show and losing $40M on that investment annually, he would cancel it as well. If he wouldn't, well, you can't fix stupid.

Looks like MA needs to do some canceling too. This guy gets triggered over a loser show being cancelled? Demand? I think that may be part of the reason that the Dems are being cancelled too. They all have a sense of entitlement. The world doesn’t owe them anything. Cry harder.

So, THAT'S what he was ELECTED for? To concern himself about a television show being cancelled? How on earth does that remotely fit into a Senator's agenda?

His state has spent more than 2 billion housing nonresidents. His worry is a tv show. Can we get this guy out of office p.

This clown couldn’t understand comedy if it was staring him in the face. Democrats are about sadness and despair. They have no idea what comedy is.

Everyone’s screaming “authoritarianism” over Colbert’s show getting canned— you've all lost your mind. Shows get canceled. It f*cking happens. And this is why, geniuses: • Viewership dropped from 3.1 million to 1.9 million • Ad revenue slashed from $121M to $70M • The show was losing $40 million a year This isn’t some grand political takedown, it’s what happens when a show stops making money. GROW THE F*CK UP. Not everything is censorship. Sometimes your show just sucks and the network finally noticed.

Next Spring can't come soon enough, good riddance 🤡-bert. You will not be missed.

Hilarious and revealing how utterly worthless the topics/events Democrats froth at the mouth over. Meritocracy isn’t even on their political radar/spectrum in any capacity. Telling.

Your answer is $40million annual losses for that show! Just more proof democrats have a problem with math!

Sen. Ed Markey has been in DC way to long, he started in 1976 and in all this time all he is actually known for is creating "The Green New Steal"
