David Letterman has savagely rejected CBS’s reasoning for canceling The Late Show, now hosted by Stephen Colbert.
Letterman, who hosted the iconic late-night talk show for 22 years before handing the reins to Colbert in 2015, told The New York Times he does not believe the cancellation was a financial decision.
“He [Colbert] was dumped because the people selling the network to Skydance said, ‘Oh no, there’s not going to be any trouble with that guy. We’re going to take care of the show. We’re just going to throw that into the deal. When will the ink on the check dry?’” Letterman said.
