What Stephen Colbert's departure tells us: Speak carefully, laugh quietly and don't disrupt
It has been a wild couple of weeks since the news broke that The Late Show with Stephen Colbert was being taken off air. American late-night hosts have long built careers mocking the high and mighty – presidents, billionaires, media barons – and I always found that remarkable. Here is the most powerful country in the world, and yet its citizens could flip on the TV at night and watch someone dismantle power with wit and sharpness. That kind of televised dissent is rare in today's world. And now, it feels like something is shifting. Colbert's exit is officially being framed as a business decision. Paramount Global, CBS's parent company, cited sustained financial losses of $40-$50 million annually as the reason for axing not just Colbert's show but the entire Late Show franchise. But the timing is suspect. The announcement came just days after Colbert delivered an on-air monologue criticising Paramount's controversial $16 million legal settlement with Donald Trump over a 60 Minutes interview with Kamala Harris – a settlement that critics have called a quiet payoff to avoid further scrutiny. In that same week, Paramount was in the final stages of an $8 billion merger with Skydance, a deal that still needed regulatory approval. To put it simply, Colbert's pointed critique came at a politically and financially inconvenient moment for his bosses. On air, he called it a 'bribe', a corporate retreat cloaked as legal housekeeping. Within a week, CBS announced it was not only ending The Late Show, but also axing the entire franchise. No replacement, no transition — just a shutdown. And so, Stephen Colbert — one of the most influential satirical voices in America — is being not-so-quietly phased out. It's hard to take the company's explanation at face value. The Late Show was the top-rated programme in its slot. But ratings don't matter when you're embarrassing powerful people or making a media giant uncomfortable before a multi-billion dollar merger. Colbert's exit, abrupt and total, feels less like a financial decision and more like a boardroom sacrifice. In that sense, this isn't just about one man losing a show. It's about what gets silenced when business collides with power. What does this say about freedom of speech today? On paper, Colbert has not been censored. There's been no government ban, no legal gag order, no explicit blacklisting. But freedom of speech is not just about the absence of state control. It's about the presence of cultural and institutional protections that allow criticism, discomfort, and dissent to exist, even thrive, especially when they are inconvenient. Night after night, Stephen Colbert threaded humour with moral clarity, calling out hypocrisy, challenging bigotry, and refusing to treat politics as just another punchline. In a post-truth era, where facts are negotiable and outrage is monetised, his monologues often felt like the closest thing to a conscience mainstream TV had. Which is precisely why his removal stings. It reveals a deeper truth about freedom of speech in modern America: You're allowed to speak freely until it costs someone too much money. Or until your words threaten a pending merger. Or until your satire points too directly at the rot in the system funding your airtime. This is what Jon Stewart called 'fear and pre-compliance' in fierce defence of his friend – corporations acting not under direct pressure, but out of fear of political or financial fallout. In this version of the story, no one needed to shut Colbert down. The network did it for them. The implications are chilling. If Stephen Colbert, with his platform, ratings, and cultural clout, can be dropped this unceremoniously, what message does that send to others? Speak carefully. Laugh quietly. Don't disrupt. And it's not just about television. This is about the narrowing of spaces where dissent can survive without being strangled by ad revenue models or sanitised by corporate boards. It's about how easily satire – one of democracy's oldest checks on power – can be dismissed as expendable when it dares to bite the hand that feeds it. Late-night television, for decades, has functioned as a space where comedians could speak truth to power with a punchline. From Johnny Carson to David Letterman, and later Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert, these shows were where satire met civic discourse. They weren't just entertainment, they were a vital pressure valve in democracies, especially during times of political dysfunction. When Donald Trump rose to power, and traditional journalism struggled to keep up with his reality-bending tactics, shows like The Late Show helped Americans make sense of the chaos, or at least laugh through it. Trump, predictably, celebrated the cancellation, calling it just the beginning. He's now publicly fantasising about the demise of other late-night hosts. Whether that's just bluster or not, the message is unmistakable – dissent has consequences. Stephen Colbert's departure is not the first of its kind, but it may be the most symbolic. It suggests that even a ratings leader is dispensable if his voice becomes a liability. In May 2026, when Stephen Colbert signs off for the last time with his 'gloves off', he'll do so with millions of fans watching. Some may see it as the natural end of a show. Others will see it for what it is: A warning.

Harrison Ford, 83, Refuses To Retire: ‘They Need Old People'
Harrison Ford shared that one good thing about acting is that "older actors" are needed to play "older roles". Harrison Ford shows no signs of stopping, even after acting in several hit movies like Star Wars, Indiana Jones and Blade Runner. In a recent talk, when the talented actor was asked if he ever plans to retire from acting, his answer was a clear no. Ford shared that one good thing about acting is that older actors are needed to play older roles. He also shared a fun story from the sets of Blade Runner 2049, where, during practice, he accidentally punched Ryan Gosling. Other than his past movies, Ford also mentioned his future with Marvel after playing the Red Hulk in Captain America: Brand New Day. Speaking about his retirement with Variety, Ford said 'no," and added that 'That's one of the things I thought was attractive about the job of an actor, was that they need old people, too, to play old people's parts." Funny Moment With Ryan Gosling: Talking about the funny incident with Ryan Gosling on the sets of Blade Runner 2049, Harrison Ford shared, 'We were rehearsing a fight, and we got too close and I hit him. I apologised right away. What more could I do? Can't take back a punch. Just take it. He's a very handsome man. He's still very handsome." Golden Time In Hollywood: When Harrison Ford was asked about working with big directors like Steven Spielberg, George Lucas and Francis Ford Coppola, he described it as a very exciting time in Hollywood. He spoke about how, during the late 1970s and 1980s, a group of young and creative filmmakers entered the industry. They had strong ideas and wanted to tell stories in their own unique way. Ford felt lucky to be part of that period and to work with such talented people. Marvel Role, Emmy Nomination: Earlier this year, Ford played the role of President Thaddeus Ross in Captain America: Brave New World. His appearance in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) film grabbed attention, and many fans were hoping to see more of him in upcoming movies. But Ford shared that, so far, Marvel boss Kevin Feige hasn't fully convinced him to return to the MCU. Most recently, Harrison Ford finished shooting Season 3 of Shrinking on Apple TV+. The show became popular, and it even earned Ford his very first Emmy nomination for his role. First Published: July 31, 2025, 12:29 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Mikey Madison, Jeremy Allen White in talks for ‘The Social Network' sequel directed by Aaron Sorkin
Oscar winner Mikey Madison and Emmy-winning actor Jeremy Allen White are in early discussions to star in the upcoming sequel to The Social Network, directed and written by Aaron Sorkin. The project is being developed at Sony Pictures and is reportedly a top priority for the studio. While no official offers have been made, sources confirm that meetings have taken place with both actors as Sorkin finalises casting and prepares to present the project's budget to the studio for approval. The untitled sequel will be based on The Facebook Files, a series of investigative articles by Wall Street Journal reporter Jeff Horwitz. Unlike the 2010 film directed by David Fincher — which chronicled the origins of Facebook and earned eight Academy Award nominations — the sequel will shift focus to the internal revelations about Facebook's harmful impact. The story explores the company's own research indicating the platform's damaging effects on teens, its role in spreading misinformation, and its contribution to political unrest, including the January 6 Capitol insurrection. If confirmed, Madison would portray whistleblower Frances Haugen, the former Facebook data engineer who leaked thousands of documents to the media and regulators. White is in talks to play Jeff Horwitz, the journalist who led the reporting on the internal Facebook documents. Described as a blend of The Insider and Spotlight, the film aims to examine corporate accountability and journalistic investigation in the digital age. Sorkin, who won an Oscar for writing the original The Social Network, will also produce the film alongside Todd Black, Peter Rice, and Stuart Besser. Madison recently won Best Actress at the Oscars for her role in Anora, which also took home Best Picture. White, a two-time Emmy winner for The Bear, will next be seen portraying Bruce Springsteen in Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere, releasing this October.
