David Letterman Calls CBS “Lying Weasels” Over Stephen Colbert Cancellation: “They’re Lying”

David Letterman has some strong opinions on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert being canceled.

In a new interview, Letterman said he didn’t believe CBS‘s reason for cutting the late-night talk show, calling the network “lying weasels.”

“He was dumped because the people selling the network to Skydance said, ‘Oh no, there’s not going to be any trouble with that guy. We’re going to take care of the show. We’re just going to throw that into the deal. When will the ink on the check dry?’ I’m just going to go on record as saying: They’re lying,” Letterman told The New York Times.
