David Letterman expresses his displeasure over CBS canceling The Late Show, referring to the new Paramount boss as 'the Ellison Twins.' He compares the cancellation to a painful change in his old neighborhood. Letterman believes the cancellation was not purely financial, suggesting it was influenced by management's desire to avoid controversy with President Trump. He openly criticizes CBS management, calling them 'lying weasels' for their claims about the cancellation's reasons. Stephen Colbert, in contrast, takes a more somber approach to the show's end.
