Stephen Colbert hosted a public access television show called "Only in Monroe" in Michigan shortly after his final episode of "The Late Show" on CBS. The event featured guests including musicians Jack White and Jeff Daniels, as well as appearances by Steve Buscemi and Eminem (source: wire services).
Coverage across the outlets is consistent in reporting the event but varies in emphasis. The Hollywood Reporter highlights Colbert's history with the show, noting his previous hosting in 2015. Rolling Stone focuses on the quick transition from CBS to public access, framing it as a return to late-night television. The Guardian provides a broader context by mentioning the notable guests but does not delve into Colbert's past involvement with the show.
No outlet has addressed the potential implications of Colbert's shift from a major network to public access, such as the changing landscape of television or audience reception. This oversight may reflect a blind spot among left-leaning sources regarding the significance of Colbert's career trajectory.
