The end of Stephen Colbert’s 'The Late Show' on CBS is announced

A few days ago, the American television network CBS announced that in May 2026 it will bring to an end one of the most emblematic programs in U.S. television, The Late Show, hosted for nearly 10 years by Stephen Colbert.

The Late Show, the leading late night show on U.S. television, airs Monday through Thursday nights. The program has had two hosts throughout its history: David Letterman, who was at the helm for 22 seasons, and Stephen Colbert, who when the program ends will have been in charge for 11 seasons.

The news of this program's end has generated enormous interest and has provoked all kinds of reactions, including among Colbert's competitors in American nighttime television, who have shown their support for the host by understanding that his departure is fundamentally due to political pressure from the President of the United States, Donald Trump.

However, CBS network has stated through a press release that the decision is "purely a financial decision against a challenging backdrop in late night" and that "not related in any way to the show's performance, content or other matters happening at Paramount", CBS' parent company.

LinkedIn Learning offers nearly 25,000 courses on business, technology and creativity

One of the services we can find on the professional social network LinkedIn is its online training platform LinkedIn Learning.

It currently offers 24,700 courses "to acquire the essential skills necessary to advance in your career," as the platform itself explains. The courses, which cover all types of topics, are taught by more than 3,900 experts and thought leaders in their respective sectors. There are courses in seven different languages and they are offered with subtitles for more than 20 languages, including Spanish.

In addition to searching by topics among the wide range available, one of the options that LinkedIn Learning offers is personalizing training through goal setting and skills assessment for each user, so they can take the courses that best suit their professional situation. Additionally, specific guides are offered for over 35 different roles and 1,300+ hand-curated pathways for guided learning and deeper skill acquisition.

The courses are organized into three major areas: Business, Technology and Creativity.

LinkedIn Learning's offering is aimed at both individuals, who can take a free one-month trial, and companies.

In the case of individuals, the model is based on paying a monthly or annual fee that allows access to all courses, some of which are also offered for free.

Discover the extensive range of shows and podcasts from NPR

The NPR (National Public Radio) of the United States is a radio network belonging to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB), which also includes the PBS television network, and has more than 200 local stations distributed throughout the country.

NPR is recognized for the quality of its programs and the cultural, informational and educational service it provides to its audience, something that the authors of this newsletter can attest to having been faithful listeners of the network at different times in our lives and in various cities, such as Miami, Austin or Boston, or from a distance, through the internet.

In recent days, the United States Congress has approved the elimination of the annual federal aid of 1.1 billion dollars that was provided to the CPB, which could endanger the continuity of some stations.
