Colbert said, “I guess it’s satisfying I mean for Dominion that Rupert had to fork over a pile of cash but that does nothing for our democracy what we need is Fox News personalities to look straight into the camera, admit that they lied over and over again about the 2020 election, and then hurl themselves into Mount Doom.”

The Late Show host was right. There is something unsatisfying about Fox News not having to publicly admit that they damaged democracy, harmed our country, and knowingly lied to millions of their viewers
