There's that satanic inversion again.

When liberals say "truth to power", a frankly retarded phrase anyway, what they really mean is he was an excellent mouthpiece for their warped, wrong worldview.

Reminder that Jay Leno took a big pay cut so no writers would lose their jobs.

I'll never understand the hate for Jay Leno. Never.

He was appointment viewing for me every Monday night.

Never watched him on TV but Jay Leno's Garage on YT is top quality content. You can tell that Jay really knows and is passionate about cars. Love listening to him talk about his steam engine collection.

So let someone else have a turn Timpon. Nothing so incredibly special about Colbert as far as ability to (chuckle) "speak truth to power" as he puts on his mascot costume for pfizer

Kick off 18 of those writers and half the support staff, I guarantee that would have solved the problem or made it manageable enough for the propaganda to be worth producing.

Nah, not a single writer worth a damn was left surviving on that show. The mediocrity union is the most cutthroat of all, there's little stopping it once it takes control. Anyone with enough talent to shine a light on how shitty the rest of them are is backstabbed and chased out ASAP.

With 20 professional writers working 8 hours per day, even I could produce 20-odd minutes of "good enough" content per day, and I'd cost a heck of a lot less than 15 million.

It just makes me miss Craig Ferguson.
