Paramount’s Deal with South Park is Responsible for Killing Stephen Colbert’s Show

Many have been rallying around Stephen Colbert’s cancellation, blaming President Trump for the “comedian” getting fired, but it would appear South Park is really responsible.

Paramount cited financial reasons as to why they chose to end Stephen Colbert’s show, one which reportedly loses $40 million annually despite having the second best late night show ratings. This news came as the company signed a five year $1.5 billion deal with the South Park creators for exclusive streaming rights and new episodes. Paramount choosing South Park over Stephen Colbert suggests they’re trying to get away from overt politics and instead play more to the center which South Park is known to do; poking fun at both sides equally instead of being a DNC mouth-piece.
