[highplainsdem]

Stephen, now that your contract with CBS is officially over, we wanted to personally send you this letter about why we think you should partner with the MeidasTouch Network.

You called the Late Show “the joy machine.” Your bandleader, Louis Cato, said it was a reciprocal emotional relationship with your audience. You said you didn’t just love doing the show for people. You loved doing it with them.

That’s exactly the kind of host we want at MeidasTouch.

-snip-

Our network now averages billions of views. We outperform the major networks in digital views. And we have no FCC approvals to chase, no settlement checks to cut to Donald Trump. We are fueled by the Meidas Mighty, and they are extraordinary. They, too, are a joy machine.

The joy machine doesn’t have to stop. It just needs a new address.

1. Sounds like an invite that I hope that Mr. Colbert takes advantage of

2. I doubt Colbert wants to be part of the clickbait game. n/t

10. Better get used to it, it's the future. Personally I'd like to see these tubers AND regular media types merge

into a single news/opinion service that combines the online "clickbait" as you call it with a traditional mainstream media format. It could be a paid service or a paid service with sponsorship similar to public TV keeping ads out. I think a combination of the two, even 3 if a way to possibly add a print version, maybe a monthly magazine, with all under one umbrella, that's the way to go. The far right is already there with all 3 available. We need to play ketchup

13. Brain rot is only the future if one so chooses to ingest it. n/t

[Fiendish Thingy]

3. Thankfully, he won't take them up on it

They can’t pay him what he’s worth, and Colbert doesn’t need to lower himself to join the ranks of clickbait merchants.

This is just an attention seeking post from Meidas Touch.

9. The clickbait gets really old. Too many bombshells.

[Brother Buzz]

4. I believe Stephen Colbert has a boatload of offers to consider

While he mulls over a decision, he gonna go deepwater fishing with James Taylor.

5. How about MSNNow?

I know it is a step down from being on a major network, but it would send MSNow’s ratings through the roof.

6. Stephen Colbert Is a smart cookie and can multitask

He ain’t gonna just ride into the sunset.

7. I personally think Colbert, Stewart and Letterman should buy the Ed Sullivan Theater.

And turn it into their own podcast network. Think of the possibilities!

11. Toss in Jost and Che. Hell they already own the Staten Island Ferry. Seriously lol n/t

[awesomerwb1]

8. Bring back The Colbert Repor*

with a different name.

12. He should do whatever the hell he wants n/t
