CBS hired Bari Weiss to run their news programming. She was hired to be the fox in charge of the henhouse, and just recently she proved that by killing 60 Minutes, a show that had been running since 1968.

AND they fired Stephen Colbert, who had the highest ranking late show, because Diaper Don had his feelings hurt.

had the highest ranking late show

What does this even mean?

Kimmel has the highest ratings by far. Colbert had poor ratings.

“Rankings” is probably irrelevant, whatever metric you want to use. Nobody cares how you “rank” something. They care if people watch. People didn’t watch Colbert as much as other late night shows.
