Jimmy Falon is too neutral for my taste. And not all that entertaining.

The network of Murrow, Sevareid, and Cronkite is dead.

FUCK THEM.

We are not watching another program on SEE BS. And that includes Sunday Morning and local stations.

I cannot emphasize this enough: FUCK THEM!

4. CBS bias ratings today...

RIGHT-CENTER BIAS
These media sources are slight to moderately conservative in bias. They often publish factual information that utilizes loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by appealing to emotion or stereotypes) to favor conservative causes. These sources are generally trustworthy for information but may require further investigation. See all Right-Center sources.

Overall, we rate CBS News as Right-Center Biased in this update due to emerging editorial decisions and leadership influence under Bari Weiss that suggest a shift away from its historically left-center orientation. Due to emerging evidence that CBS News is censoring content unfavorable to the government, we are downgrading its rating to Mostly Factual with Medium credibility, despite its historically strong sourcing, professional reporting, and lack of significant failed fact checks.

History
Founded in 1929, CBS News is the news division of American television and radio service CBS. CBS News has multiple television broadcasts: CBS Evening News, CBS This Morning, news magazine programs CBS Sunday Morning, 60 Minutes and 48 Hours, and Sunday morning political affairs program Face the Nation. They also have CBS Radio News, which is broadcast on 100’s of radio stations in the USA, and a 24-hour digital news network, CBSN.

In October 2025, Bari Weiss from The Free Press was named editor-in-chief of CBS News. The Free Press is rated Right-Center biased.

Fuck CBS and Paramount+ If Colbert and Strike Force 5 buys the network we will return. Otherwise it's dead to this family.

12. I've been boycotting CBS since January 2012.

That's when I quit broadcast television entirely.

I have occasionally watched embedded YouTube clips of Colbert here on DU. He's probably my extended family's sort of Catholic.

My mom used to work for CBS in its glory days. She was working when she met my dad.

Starting tonight, the 11:35 p.m. slot tonight I will be tuned to Kimmel, and forever more on weeknights, and I have no reason to watch anything else on CBS or Paramount. I always found Comics Unleashed to be totally boring and unfunny, and even that was before I found out Byron Allen was another billionaire and likely Trump boot-licker.

And, although I've never seen his show, I hear some people swear by Seth Meyers.
