Colbert shifts to YouTube after CBS exit with Michigan public access debut
After CBS canceled The Late Show, Stephen Colbert launched a YouTube channel and posted his May 22 hosting gig on the Michigan public access show Only in Monroe. The episode featured guests like Jack White, Eminem, Jeff Daniels, Steve Buscemi and Byron Allen, who has bought Colbert’s CBS timeslots. CBS says the Monroe episode was financed by CBS Studios and posted in collaboration with Monroe Community Media and The Late Show’s YouTube channels, and, while typical takedown notices were paused for this episode, they plan further review of enforcement.
