The speech police came for Colbert

The article discusses how FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr's actions, following a previous incident that briefly took Jimmy Kimmel off the air, seemingly led CBS to prevent an interview from airing on Stephen Colbert's late-night show. This incident is discussed on The Vergecast, where hosts David and Nilay analyze the timeline of the Colbert/CBS situation and re-examine the complexities of the FCC's equal time rule, questioning the extent of Carr's perceived "chilling effect." The episode also covers unrelated tech topics, including Meta's developing facial recognition feature for smart glasses, potential early March launches for new Apple iPads and Macs, and a lightning round discussing Tesla's self-driving record and Samsung's upcoming phones.
