Pipeline run for this draft
Generated note
Carson’s ~55M and Colbert’s 6.74M ratings are broadly accurate. Comparing them as population shares omits that modern TV viewing is split across streaming, broadcast and cable; Nielsen says streaming surpassed broadcast+cable in 2025. https://www.adweek.com/convergent-tv/stephen-colbert-late-show-finale-ratings-viewership/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/lifestyle/1992/05/25/the-tv-column/56049391-abb5-4d09-8832-c2ae1748c997/ https://www.nielsen.com/news-center/2025/streaming-reaches-historic-tv-milestone-eclipses-combined-broadcast-and-cable-viewing-for-first-time/

When the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson signed off in 1992, 55 Million of America's 250 Million people watched. (More than 1 in 5 Americans) Stephen Colbert's final show drew 6.7 Million out of 342 Million Americans (less than 2%) That's the difference between being an American institution and preaching to a small and dying liberal choir.
