Stephen Colbert

The questionable sincerity of CBS’s Stephen Colbert’s devout Catholicism was on display for the second straight night as The Late Show host welcomed actress Cynthia Erivo to hype her upcoming role as Jesus, telling her that her…

CBS’s Stephen Colbert likes to portray himself as one of the country’s leading voices for the religious left, but Wednesday’s edition of The Late Show proved that most of that is just ordinary liberalism because Colbert attacked the Trump Administration for not issuing a Pride Month proclamation.

CBS’s host of The Late Show, Stephen Colbert, and ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel both dishonestly attacked House Republicans’ tax and spending bill on their Tuesday shows by leaving out crucial context for at least three talking points that made the proposal sound both reckless and “heartless.”

Former FBI Director James Comey took his book tour to CBS and The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, where he promoted his new novel about a violent right-wing podcaster while the eponymous host absolved him of any wrongdoing over his recent 8647 Instagram post that some interpreted as a call to kill President Trump.

Some days, CBS’s Stephen Colbert is so far out in left field that it can’t all fit in one article. Thursday’s edition of The Late Show was one such occasion. Before he lamented the state of the nation with Sen. Bernie Sanders and flirted with tropes about Jewish financial power, Colbert would rant about the GOP’s proposed budget, claiming they “can eat a bag of [bleep]” for their…

CBS’s Stephen Colbert came dangerously close to engaging in anti-Semitic tropes about money and influence during a Thursday interview with Sen. Bernie Sanders, where the two men alleged Super PACs like AIPAC are why the U.S. refuses to strongarm Israel into ending the war against Hamas.

For Tuesday’s edition of The Late Show, CBS’s Stephen Colbert welcomed “Chaplain of the Colbert Nation” Father James Martin to discuss Pope Leo XIV.

There is a new tradition emerging among the late night comedy shows: gushing over Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett and her attempts to be the liberal corner of the internet’s favorite congressperson.  CBS’s Stephen Colbert was the latest to get in on the trend on Monday as he welcomed Crockett to The Late Show to gush over some of her recent antics.

The Thursday editions of the late night comedy shows truly proved that they are simply MSNBC with more jokes. Like that network, they appreciated that the first American pope, the newly elected Leo XIV, has criticized President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance on immigration. The fact that he would rebuke their views on abortion, gender, and sexuality were inconvenient things to be…

The irony was impossible to miss on Tuesday’s edition of CBS’s The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, as MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow joined the eponymous host to declare on one hand that the worst predictions about President Donald Trump have come true, but also that he and Republicans seek to get rid of elections.

Former White House Press Secretary and current MSNBC host Jen Psaki joined CBS’s Stephen Colbert on The Late Show on Wednesday for three segments full of loathing President Trump and his “fire hose of dirty water” and “do-nothing Democrats” like Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.

NBC’s Late Night with Seth Meyers writer, CNN host, and cancelled White House Correspondents’ Dinner comedian Amber Ruffin travelled across town to CBS and The Late Show to join host Stephen Colbert to claim “it would be impossible to make jokes about both sides” and even “dangerous.”

Over there on this very site, NewsBusters’ own Alex Christy had a sharp-eyed focus on a curious moment on a recent episode of Stephen Colbert’s late night CBS show. 

On Thursday, two of America’s leading voices for the religious left—CBS’s Stephen Colbert and Sen. Raphael Warnock—joined forces on The Late Show to prepare for Easter by attacking Republicans as un-Christian with some casual Jim Crow and slavery analogies.
