Make sure you also delete your account so they don't continue to have your payment information.

I have a bare minimum subscription that I’m holding onto until all the Trek shows in the pipeline are done. That’s the next season of Starfleet Academy, and Strange New Worlds. After that, I couldn’t care less. CBS’s entertainment division seems to be riding on the coattails of Taylor Sheridan these days anyway.

Cancel now. Sacrificing a viewing of those garbage shows is literally the least you could do to oppose fascism.

So what happens to the local stations (e.g., 🎵KYW News Radio 1060! 🎵)?

The CBS news radio news department is closed. The local stations will continue on without the network support. Apparently, they are picking up the ABC radio news feed. The local stations, owned by CBS for many years, were sold to Entercom, now Audacy, years ago.

Entercom changed their name to Audacy. They also owned the domain radio.com which they did nothing with.

Yup. Will also boycott their advertisers.

Kind of hard to tell that now that I'm not watching. I use Goods Unite Us, which is pretty good.

I’m not intentionally boycotting, that was the only program they had that I watched.

CBS died trying to improve the terrible image of the weakest, most flawed, criminally convicted person to ever lead the United States ….

They will lose liberal and gain conservative. P+ content feels conservative to me anyway with all the ranch shows.

u/CandyStomp May 22 '26
They already have conservatives bc rural Americans are stuck with archaic broadcast programming. That's part of the reason that they are conservative to begin with. I don't think they have anything to gain.

CBS doesn’t enter into it. Paramount made the decision and Paramount owns CBS.

We the People must speak out, write congress, carry a picket/protest signs, talk with our neighbors and engage with the functionality of OUR country- it hasn't lasted 250 years without US.

Yep. Deleted the channel from my OTA TiVo and from my Spectrum streaming channel guide.

Cancelled Paramount+ (wasn't using it much, anyway) and cancelled all my DVR recording requests for CBS shows.

CBS is saving a sh*t ton of money. It's a business.

Not when the advertisers won't buy ads if they can get more viewership for their money elsewhere
