CBS and its parent company, Paramount, have set an end date for one of the last public pipelines to some version of the truth.

On Thursday, CBS announced that it was cancelling the long running The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. The cancellation news came just days after Stephen Colbert, a critic of Donald Trump, called out Paramount, the parent company of CBS, over its $16 million settlement with the president.

President Trump cheered the cancellation of "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert," saying he "absolutely loves" that Colbert "got fired."

Jimmy Kimmel and his family took a stand with his family, protesting President Donald Trump following the cancelation of Stephen Colbert’s late-night show.
