The gesture is nice but this isn't going to change anything.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

But they don't control whether he gets to stay on the air, only whether they themselves personally offer him an award.
Do whatever good you can, when and where you can.
Correct, even a baby step in the right direction is a step AND the right direction.
Turns out the bullshit "cancel culture" narrative only applies to anything that gives chuds a sad. I still don't see how any conservatives have been "cancelled".
I think Charlie Kirk got cancelled.
Charlie Kirk becoming a gun statistic in the middle of a smarmy comment about gun violence will never not be funny.
Specifically a white gunman when ranting about black violence.
Truth
After all the amazing work he did during the Rally To Restore Sanity, I think he's earned this much respect.
Agreed.
That was a great day. Thanks for prompting a trip down memory lane.
Hey, didn't see you there that day! Or my friend that I was supposed to meet. Couldn't get around much with that huge crowd in the way.
Yeah, my little group met up in Arlington and traveled together so we wouldn't get lost.
It was nice to be with such a huge group of people who all had a good sense of humor. We don't get a lot of that these days.
I will agree that he deserves more than this, absolutely.
Yeah. About as useful as a FIFA peace prize.
But not near as shitty
Stephen should run for dead old Lindsay Grahams seat.
Not ‘til after Lord of the Rings!
Oh :( I thought this was him winning a law suit
Come on Stephen, do the Public Access Television Tour. Don't make us beg:
CBS took copyright enforcement actions against Colbert. They've supposedly come to an end, but who knows for sure. Colbert seems silenced.
