MS NOW host Lawrence O’Donnell has torn into CBS for the network’s alleged refusal to air an interview with a rising young Democrat.
The uproar began after Stephen Colbert revealed to his studio audience that the MAGA-curious network had decided to pull Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico’s interview on The Late Show, though it had already been taped. Colbert told his audience that he wasn’t allowed to feature the Texas state representative, 36, on the air for fear of upsetting Federal Communications Commission chair Brendan Carr.
The network claimed almost 24 hours later that it didn’t censor Colbert’s interview but “provided legal guidance that the broadcast could trigger the FCC equal-time rule.”
