CBS provoked widespread outrage after suddenly announcing it was cancelling 'The Late Show,' which comedian Stephen Colbert has hosted since 2015. CNN media reporter Brian Stelter tweeted Thursday that the network announced it would remove 'The Late Show' from its lineup after the current broadcast season ends in May of 2026. In an official statement, CBS praised Colbert as a host and insisted its decision was purely business-related and not in any way tied to other issues, like the network's recent $16 million settlement with President Donald Trump, who sued over a '60 Minutes' interview with former Vice President Kamala Harris.

"Rob Kall has certainly acquired the firsthand experiences and knowledge gained through interviews to deliver some interesting insights about the "bottom-up" information revolution. Whereas the old 'top-down' systems created stove-pipes and excessive secrecy that blocked information sharing and led to the 'failure to connect the dots' before 9-11, the bottom-up approach should be the main fix. Kall's concept would seem to interface equally well with the founding fathers' idealism in setting forth their democratic theory of governance as with the realism that makes the multi-sourced, bottom-up Wikipedia work. As someone who shares my support of both government and corporate whistleblowing -- which is nothing more than encouraging greater horizontal sharing of information, I commend Rob Kall's important work on this topic."
