Hollywood Uproar: Jimmy Kimmel BLASTS CBS Over Colbert Axing — “THIS MEANS WAR!”

Nobody — nobody — saw this coming.

CBS just pulled the plug on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert in a stunning move that’s sending shockwaves through Tinseltown.

But it’s Jimmy Kimmel’s brutal reaction that’s lighting up Hollywood like gasoline on a bonfire.

“Cowardly. Politically motivated. A direct hit on comedy — and the truth.”

That’s how Kimmel described it — live on-air and all over social media — in what insiders are calling the most savage takedown of a network since Letterman’s infamous Top 10 list.

Industry insiders say this isn’t just TV beef — it’s a full-blown celebrity civil war.

And behind the scenes? Executives are scrambling, stars are taking sides, and one question is burning through the industry:

Was this REALLY about ratings?
Or is CBS silencing voices before election season?

Colbert’s team is reportedly “devastated.”
Writers are refusing to go quietly.
And Jimmy Kimmel? He just declared:

“You want a war? You’ve got one.”
