Key points about Stephen Colbert and MSN Now coverage (as of the latest available snapshots):
- There have been reports in mid-2025 about The Late Show with Stephen Colbert ending hiatus and returning with new episodes, including planned guest lineups. This is the type of coverage MSN Now would typically highlight in their entertainment news section.[1]
- In July 2025, reports circulated that CBS considered or implemented measures affecting Colbert’s show amid broader CBS/Paramount discussions, including industry coverage of cancellations or schedule changes. This kind of development is the sort of item MSN Now would flag in a “latest” round-up.[2]
