While taping his Thursday show, host Stephen Colbert made the surprising announcement that CBS is ending his late night show in May.

The live audience at New York’s Ed Sullivan Theater booed when he delivered the news that this would be the show’s final season.

“Yeah, I share your feelings,” he told the audience. “It’s not just the end our our show, but it’s the end of The Late Show on CBS. I’m not being replaced. This is all just going away.”

    Rather used copies of real documents that had their kerning adjusted to appear false.

    Can you cite a source on that? I remember back then seeing an interview with the person that made up the docs and they admitted they did it because they wanted to discredit Bush.

            Your own source cited numbers even suggest the majority of people admitting to murder are the one that did the murder, and you’re trying to use that as a defense to your point?
