There are no right-leaning guests on, for instance, Stephen Colbert's show.
And Stephen Colbert would never have the Republican nominee on his show.
And so as a result, CBS said, we're worried about violating the equal time doctrine.
We're not going to run this interview.
That was a decision that was made by CBS corporate.
Well, Stephen Colbert, whose show has been canceled, I believe it is scheduled to end in May, went on and teed off, and I believe this aired on his actual CBS program, him ripping his bosses at CBS Cut 26.
Okay, this is, I think, actually more interesting than Stephen Colbert is letting on.
And it's actually super interesting in general.
So he was only going to have James Tallarico on.
Now, James Tallarico is in a highly competitive Senate race against Jasmine Crockett.
But Jasmine Crockett has a 0% chance of being elected statewide from Texas.
I want to repeat this.
I think even Democrats are aware of this.
If Jasmine Crockett is the nominee, there is a zero percent chance that Republicans have to worry about the Democrat in that race at all.
I think elite Democrat leadership is aware of that.
So when I hear and see this controversy emerging, I say, my goodness, this is elite Democrat power brokers deciding to set up this James Tallarico interview.
If it airs, it's a huge bonus to him.
But if it gets shut down under this FCC equal time doctrine, it's
I would argue it's an even bigger bonus for him because most people would have never seen this.
But for the fact that Stephen Colbert went on and attacked his bosses for not letting him have on James Tallarico.
