Samantha Bee is sticking up for her former 'Daily Show' colleague Stephen Colbert after 'The Late Show's' cancellation, but points out that the program was 'hemorrhaging money.'

Bee has some experience with a show getting canceled in the wake of a merger: Her TBS late-night show Full Frontal With Samantha Bee was cut following the Warner Bros. Discovery merger (which is currently in the process of being undone ), and it was on the air when AT&T and TBS parent Time Warner merged.
