I'm sure this is not the last we see of Stephen Colbert. [View all]

He has a following and is currently a hot commodity for ratings.

I remember back when Sirius Satellite lured Howard Stern away from public radio for half a billion dollars in 2006 and new subscriptions soared accordingly. That was a lot of money back then but it was worth it to them. Stern liked it because it unshackled him from the whims of the FCC.

Now media is almost all a streaming business and I'm sure there's a bidding war for him. This may be the best thing that ever happened to Colbert, but I'm afraid he'll settle on a platform that I don't subscribe to, like Netflix or HBO MAX.

Time may prove that Bari Weiss should be fired for letting this one get away.
