Stephen Colbert's ‘Late Show' was haven for left-wing politicians and journalists
'The Late Show' wasn't just a platform for Democrats under Stephen Colbert's tenure, it was also one for left-wing journalists and hosts. Fox News Digital has counted at least 200 episodes of 'The Late Show' that featured members of the liberal media. The far-left politics of 'The Late Show' have been facing scrutiny after CBS announced last week that it was pulling the plug on Colbert's program, which will officially wrap up in May 2026. According to IMDB search results, CNN anchor and '60 Minutes' correspondent Anderson Cooper holds the record with 20 formal guest appearances on 'The Late Show.' Cooper showed his support for Colbert on Monday in a cameo appearance as part of an audience gag mocking CBS parent company Paramount and President Donald Trump. Other journalists and hosts who were top 'Late Show' guests included CNN anchor Jake Tapper, with 12 appearances, the 'Pod Save America' Obama bros with 11, MSNBC's Chris Hayes with 10 and MSNBC's Rachel Maddow and 'The View' co-host Whoopi Goldberg with eight apiece, per IMDB. Colbert frequently rolled out the red carpet for his CBS colleagues in the news division for cross-promotion. John Dickerson has tallied 19 appearances, Gayle King notched 14, Norah O'Donnell has six, and Margaret Brennan has three. 3 Fox News Digital reports that 'The Late Show With Stephen Colbert' featured left-wing journalists as formal guests for at least 200 episodes.

The late-night CBS host welcomed liberal journalists from rival broadcast networks like ABC's George Stephanopoulos and Jonathan Karl as well as NBC's Savannah Guthrie, Craig Melvin and Jacob Soboroff.

During that same time period, ABC's 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' averaged 1.5 million, NBC's 'The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon' averaged 1.1 million, and NBC's 'Late Night with Seth Meyers' managed 751,000. When it comes to the advertiser-coveted demographic of adults aged 25-54, 'Gutfeld!' averaged 398,000 of the viewers most coveted by advertisers, compared to 288,000 for Colbert.

Tired of too many ads? go ad free now George Clooney in his brown hairdo On May 6, Clooney was spotted at the Winter Garden Theatre in New York City, where he wore a black leather jacket, khaki pants, white and black sneakers, blue-tinted sunglasses, and a cap, along with his grey hair. Clooney dyed his hair brown for his role as a news anchor, Edward R. Murrow , in the play 'Good Night, And Good Luck.'

With his brown hair look, he made a significant impact on the stage that could make him achieve Tony for the role, according to the Daily Mail. Oh, George Clooney knows that it's not good Since the debut of the so-called 'cringey' brown look, his fans have been waving the flags of disapproval and fake orange tan, citing that the 63-year-old looks 20 years older. In an interview with CBS Morning, when confronted with the questionable hair, Clooney said, 'Oh, it's not good! I'm not used to it, you never get used to it. Listen, I started getting grey when I was 25, so I've been grey most of my life, so it's not my favourite look.'

5 Money Moves Trump Made Using Generational Wealth That You Can Too
President Donald Trump built immense wealth by leveraging assets he inherited from his father, Fred Trump, into bigger ventures. According to a New York Times investigation, Trump received at least $413 million from his father, starting from a very young age. This financial security allowed Trump to take risks that others might avoid. For You: Try This: Yet, even without vast generational wealth, anyone can apply Trump's strategies. By adopting practical versions of his financial moves, you can also grow your assets and secure financial freedom. Below are five Trump-inspired money moves you can replicate, no matter the size of your starting point. With careful planning, leveraging assets and managing risks, you can set the stage for financial success, similar to Trump's approach. Trump started wealthy, inheriting funds early on that let him immediately invest and expand his financial empire. According to the New York Times, he was a millionaire by age eight. Early access to significant funds meant Trump could confidently enter high-value investments at a young age. This head start established financial momentum and allowed his wealth to compound rapidly over subsequent decades. Check Out: Even without substantial inheritance, you can still create your own seed money. Start by regularly setting aside small savings or investing unexpected windfalls wisely. Gradually accumulating this initial capital can fuel investments, such as real estate or retirement accounts, helping your wealth compound significantly over time. Trump used inherited real estate properties to create equity, allowing him to secure financing for larger deals. According to a New York Times investigation, his father's properties supported expansions like Trump Tower, boosting both visibility and net worth. Real estate provided Trump stable income, growth in asset values and leverage to pursue broader investment opportunities. You don't need prime New York real estate to benefit from this strategy. Buying even modest property lets you build equity over time, potentially funding future investments or retirement plans. Real estate, including small rental properties or REITs, provides stable income and appreciation potential accessible at nearly any investment scale. Trump leveraged his inheritance to secure loans, amplifying his investment capabilities and expanding his real estate empire. Trump said, 'I'm the king of debt' in an interview in 2016 on CBS Morning, for his extensive use of borrowing to finance projects, like in this interview. His familial wealth reduced lender risk perception, enabling significant borrowing, though it occasionally resulted in high-profile bankruptcies. 'Without safety nets Trump enjoyed, everyday investors should carefully assess debt risks and capacities,' said Dr. Preston Cherry, wealth advisor at Wealth Management. Leverage can grow wealth significantly when managed prudently; use loans for appreciating assets like education, homes or businesses. Carefully managing debt ensures you amplify opportunities rather than increasing financial vulnerabilities. Trump protected his inherited wealth using legal structures and sophisticated tax strategies, significantly reducing tax liabilities. According to a New York Times investigation, he and his father engaged in suspect tax schemes to transfer wealth. Entities like LLCs isolated personal assets from business failures, minimizing potential personal losses during bankruptcies. You can similarly shield assets using legal and legitimate tax strategies. Forming LLCs or corporations can protect personal assets from business liabilities and lower tax burdens. Utilizing retirement accounts, tax deductions and strategic estate planning ensures your financial resources are safeguarded, maximized and efficiently passed down. Trump consistently took bold risks, knowing family wealth provided a reliable financial safety net. His father's financial support allowed him to pursue high-risk, high-reward ventures. This confidence encouraged ventures such as casinos and luxury developments, which significantly enhanced his financial stature. Average investors must carefully balance risk-taking with prudent safety measures. Establishing robust emergency funds and acquiring adequate insurance creates a financial cushion, allowing you to confidently pursue promising investment opportunities. Evaluate risks thoroughly, scale investments prudently and maintain contingency plans to protect your financial stability.
