    The Paramount Comics, Stephen Colbert and Jon Stewart, Are Sharp Critics Of The “60 Minutes” Deal

    Tuesday, July 15, 2025

    This isn't a joke. They've made that clear.

    CBS "Late Show" host Stephen Colbert condemned parent company Paramount Global's settlement of President Donald Trump's lawsuit over a "60 Minutes" story as a "big fat bribe" during his first show back from a vacation.

    He discussed the deal in greater detail with the show's guest, retired "60 Minutes" correspondent Steve Kroft, making his views clear through a series of leading questions.

    "I would assume internally, this is devastating to the people who work in a place that pride themselves on contextual, good journalism?" Stewart... Read More
