CBS Declares War on Heartland of America (Remarks on Stephen Colbert Taking Over for Letterman)

CBS has just declared war on the heartland of America. No longer is comedy going to be a covert assault on traditional American values, conservatives. Now it's just wide out in the open.

What this hire means is a redefinition of what is funny, and a redefinition of what is comedy, and they're blowing up the 11:30 format under the guise that the world is changing and people don't want the kind of comedy that Carson gave us or even Letterman.

They don't want that anymore. It's media planting a flag here. I think it’s maybe the media’s last stand, but it's a declaration. There's no unity in this hire. They've hired a partisan, so-called comedian, to run a comedy show.
