After CBS released a statement without Stephen Colbert's knowledge denying that it had pulled an interview with Texas Democratic James Talarico from his show, Colbert responded by crumpling up the statement and treating it like dog crap.
Stephen Colbert Says CBS's Statement is Dog Crap
Stephen Colbert responded to CBS' dog crap statement about his canceled interview with Texas Democrat James Talarico over concerns about the FCC's equal-time rule.

James Talarico is a Texas Democratic state representative and U.S. Senate candidate who gained national attention after CBS blocked his planned Late Show interview, prompting Stephen Colbert to release it directly to YouTube, where it quickly went viral

The ‘Streisand effect' strikes again. The Late Show interview with James Talarico, which CBS kept from airing fearing the FCC, has 5.4 million views on YouTube. On a typical night about 2 million people tune in to watch Stephen Colbert. youtu.be/oiTJ7Pz_59A?...

CBS lawyers tried to silence Stephen Colbert. He posted the interview on YouTube anyway.

Also Miller’s intolerance is blind to the fact that his fellow travelers see him as Jewish and out if they had their way. He is delusional, hateful, ignorant, and self-sabotaging. Not commenting on your disagreement (and I love James). Just dismayed.

It’s not “dunking” to point out that racial hierarchies are fluid and that present racists conveniently ignore the racial judgments of prior generations of racists as they attempt to appeal to now-white members of the former underclass
I see a lot of people dunking on Miller, and rightly so. But the point of racism isn't the internal coherence, but the power structure: Getting to determine who is in and who is out. In other words, a small group of people get to decide -- not abstract rules.

A reminder that Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra’s parents emigrated here during a period when Italians were considered to be a genetically inferior and criminal-minded underclass that Stephen Miller’s racist predecessors said should be excluded from America

I didn’t see the segment but I read the transcript and IMHO there was nothing you said that was not factual. We’ve seen too many assassinations in this country and too much hate speech. I appreciated your voice and point of view on MSNBC but as usual networks run from unfiltered opinions.

You were spot on with your comments. I never heard you being disrespectful. I choose not to make Kirk or others like him relevant in my life because I believe he was wrong about everything. That does not mean I wished him dead. Speak your truth. Shame on MSNBC. I will get news elsewhere.

Sorry Matthew, but you were right to decry Charlie Kirk's vitriol against the left. We all know how he praised David DePape, who cracked Paul Pelosi's skull. People like Kirk incite these bots to act, and are we forbidden to say the truth like you just did on live TV?
You should not apologize.
