More than a year after Skydance Media and its partners clinched a deal with Shari Redstone and Paramount Global to merge the companies, the FCC has yet to act on an application to approve the transfer of CBS licenses to the new ownership.

Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders and Ron Wyden also question whether Skydance was involved in discussions to cancel The Late Show with Stephen Colbert

Tanya Simon is the daughter of Bob Simon, a former 60 Minutes correspondent. She will be the first female executive producer in the program’s 57 years.

The entertainment world was shocked last week when The Late Show with Stephen Colbert was unexpectedly cancelled on CBS. Despite being the top-rated late-night show on television, with an average of just under 2.

David Letterman weighed in on the “Late Show With Stephen Colbert” cancellation on Tuesday, albeit in his own very Letterman-esque way. The former “Late Show” host and originator of the CBS program posted a 20-minute compilation of clips from his show where he made fun of the network, captioning the YouTube video, “You can’t spell CBS without BS.”

David Ellison met this week with Brendan Carr and FCC staffers to discuss the Paramount Global merger which is still under agency review.

His possible return back across the pond, reported by Puck News, comes amid speculation that Skydance CEO David Ellison has been wooing Bari Weiss, co-founder of news site Free Press, to join the struggling network.
