Stephen Colbert slams CBS, says lawyers told him James Talarico interview could not air on "The Late Show"

"The Late Show" host Stephen Colbert criticized CBS on Monday night, saying the network blocked his interview with U.S. Senate hopeful James Talarico from airing.

"You know who is not one of my guests tonight? That's Texas State Representative James Talarico," Colbert told his studio audience. "He was supposed to be here, but we were told in no uncertain terms by our network's lawyers, who called us directly, that we could not have him on the broadcast. Then I was told in some uncertain terms that not only could I not have him on, I could not mention me not having him on. And because my network clearly doesn't want us to talk about this, let's talk about this."
