CBS Censorship of Colbert Interview Backfires Spectacularly

Texas Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico’s fame has skyrocketed after Stephen Colbert said CBS refused to air his interview with the rising star on The Late Show.

The interview was posted on YouTube and The Late Show’s social channels after Colbert told audiences during his taping that he wasn’t allowed to feature the Texas State Representative on the TV broadcast for fear of upsetting Federal Communications Commission chair Brendan Carr.

Audiences all over social media say they wouldn’t have watched Colbert’s interview with Talarico if it weren’t for CBS’s decision to block it.
