Letting Stephen Colbert Be Stephen Colbert (Whoever That Is)

This may be welcome news. I used to watch the Colbert Report every night on Comedy Central. But, I just don't like Stephen's new show. It seems that when he left the quirky audience of cable, and tried to appeal to a wider audience, Colbert lost some of the edginess that made him in the first place.

Letting Stephen Colbert Be Stephen Colbert (Whoever That Is)

Last Wednesday, the CBS chairman Leslie Moonves ducked into that night’s taping of Stephen Colbert’s “Late Show,” and then joined Mr. Colbert in his office above the Ed Sullivan Theater.

There Mr. Moonves, Mr. Colbert and the show’s new executive producer and showrunner, Chris Licht, broke out a bottle of vodka and toasted their new mission: to get the “Late Show” on track after an uneven first eight months.

We live in a time in which decent and otherwise sensible people are surrendering too easily to the hectoring of morons or extremists.
