    It’s the most popular late night show, however ratings across late night have fallen off a cliff over the past few years, and the Late Show no longer makes a profit. They axed the post-Late Show show this season, and seem to have decided to lose the main show too.

        Yeah. Something people keep forgetting is that broadcast television is basically dead now. The only people who watch are retirees and those are dropping like flies. More so when their social security checks don’t show up and they no longer have Medicare thanks to their glorious leader.
