· France 24

Paul McCartney led an all-star lineup for the final episode of "The Late Show" as host Stephen Colbert bowed out after broadcaster CBS cancelled his show as it courted US President Donald Trump. FRANCE 24's Douglas Herbert notes that Colbert's exit could be seen as "evidence of Trump’s full-frontal assault on US democracy".
