CBS lawyers killed a Democratic candidate's interview while he sat in the studio. Colbert was told not to mention it. He spent six minutes blasting the FCC instead.
Policing Speech: Why Does The Far Right Attach To Culture Issues?
The Nazi Republicans have figured out that if they control the culture issues they then can control the politics It’s part of the Republican Nazi propaganda playbook of the current regime For this to be exposed is detrimental to their agenda so when CBS/Fox 2 refused to air an interview done by Colbert with D running for Senate James Talarico(https://bit.ly/3MBeCr1) Colbert’s team put it out on YouTube
As a Guardian article(https://bit.ly/49qifHt) discusses the far right uses seemingly innocent cooking videos or music to engender following the ideology of extremism Even using AI to generated material can be expanded to get out the message to various societal interest groups such as tradwives
So the short answer as to why culture issues are used as propaganda campaign ploys is “because it sells” A study being conducted in 6 European countries on the far right movement is delving into how the far right has used propaganda material on culture issues to “bring people along” in fostering a relationship with various groups in a population They have even started their own food delivery services
Here in the US we have seen similar far right approaches to latch onto various divisive cultural issues such as women in solitary domestic roles, diet issues because America is too fat, LGBTQ+ controversy and transgenders in sports, and even the childhood hits such as SpongeBob Squarepants and colored M&M’s promoted by such channels as the Fox propaganda network For example Fox Sports creates a following of NFL football as an entry point in order to bring the audience along to engage them on far right agenda items
But these issues are just propaganda to distract us from realizing they are picking our pockets, gutting our schools, destroying our healthcare while they give tax breaks for their billionaire donors, pardon the wealthy for convicted crimes and raise taxes on all the rest of us
The real fight is not right vs left, it’s top vs bottom
Brutal example of how corporate messaging gets throttled when merger approvals are on the line. CBS didn't even wait for an FCC complaint, they preemptively spiked an interview they'd already shot. The gag order on mentioning it was the real tell tho, trying to memory-hole the whole thing shows they knew how bad the optics were. Chilling efect working exactly as intended.

Once Colbert leaves CBS in May, nobody is going to watch it anymore. CBS has become passé.
FCC you, I luv it! Yet another agency has been weaponized.
