WHY HAS STEPHEN COLBERT’S SHOW SUDDENLY GONE INTO RERUNS?
Mystery surrounds the cancellation of all episodes of The Colbert Report by Comedy Central this week. Mediaite.com said that those holding tickets to see the show received a message saying “Due to unforeseen circumstances, we have canceled our taping for the date of your ticket reservation, February 15, 2012.” Neither the Viacom-owned cable network nor anyone close to Colbert has provided an explanation for the cancellation.
