David Letterman bids farewell to Stephen Colbert on The Late Show

David Letterman made a memorable appearance on "The Late Show" to bid farewell to Stephen Colbert, who is concluding his 11-year tenure as host. The send-off was marked by a dramatic moment in which Letterman destroyed a CBS property, adding a theatrical flair to the occasion.

Colbert's departure from the show is set for May 21, and it comes amid significant changes within CBS, including the recent takeover by the Trump-aligned Ellison family. While some speculate that the timing of Colbert's exit might be linked to these corporate shifts, CBS has stated that the decision was influenced by declining viewership for Colbert's late-night program.
