Fuck CBS, Paramount, Ellison. This is no "financial decision." It is Trump taking over American media. This is Hungary. This is disgusting.

Guess who owns Comedy Central: the same corrupt corporation.

@UllaMR @jeffjarvis If you mean Comedy Central, that seems unlikely, since they’re owned by the same company as CBS. I wouldn’t be too surprised to see The Daily Show cancelled, also.

@etikemik @jeffjarvis Yes, Comedy Central. Damn. They need an independent outlet. I doubt if any broadcaster in the US is brave enough. US is a new Hungary...

Broadcast is dead. Mass media are dead.
