This week on Green Desk, Wire Host Sara takes a deep-dive into the environmental issues surrounding the proliferation of AI technology, particularly in New Zealand. In the context of Luxon's recent announcement about a $7.5 billion investment by Amazon Web Services into data centres in New Zealand, alongside the rapid adoption of generative AI in sectors across the country, academics have raised concerns about the environmental impact of the growth of this industry. Last year, University of Waikato's Dr Amanda Turnbull co-published an article about how New Zealand is outsourcing the “risks and costs” of AI and data centres, highlighting the water and resource consumption of global reliance on data centres and AI.  Sara spoke with Dr Amanda Turnbull about her concerns relating to AI's environmental impact and how the New Zealand government should be responding to the ever-expanding industry. Following the interview with Turnbull, Sara was interested in exploring how businesses are confronting the issue of AI, especially as it becomes more integral to work. Layer3's Solution Director Daniel Bohan published an article earlier this year scrutinising the confusing data surrounding the water footprint of AI. Sara spoke with Bohan more about how businesses and consumers should engage with AI and better understand the environmental impacts.  She start by asking about how he engaged with AI in his mahi

Amazon invierte en rappiAmazon invierte 25 millones de dólares en Rappi para expandir su presencia en el comercio electrónico de América Latina     Por Félix Riaño @LocutorCo  Amazon busca fortalecer su negocio en América Latina y acaba de invertir 25 millones de dólares en Rappi. Esta alianza le permite acceder a la red de entregas rápidas de la empresa colombiana, desde México hasta Chile. Rappi, además de repartir comida y mercado, ya ofrece billetera digital y tarjetas de crédito. La jugada enfrenta directamente a Amazon con MercadoLibre, el gigante regional del comercio en línea. ¿Estamos frente a una nueva carrera por dominar las compras digitales en América Latina?  Amazon confirmó que invirtió 25 millones de dólares en Rappi. Lo hizo a través de una nota convertible, que le abre la puerta a quedarse con hasta el 12 % de la empresa si se cumplen ciertos hitos. Esta estrategia le asegura un lugar en el tablero del comercio electrónico latinoamericano.Rappi nació en Colombia y se expandió rápidamente por América Latina. Hoy opera en países como México, Brasil, Chile, Argentina y Perú. Su servicio más llamativo es Rappi Turbo, con entregas de productos en 10 minutos. A eso se suma su billetera digital, que ya tiene autorización regulatoria para funcionar con tarjetas y cuentas de ahorro. Del lado de Amazon, el movimiento se entiende como un paso para competir con MercadoLibre, que domina las compras en línea en la región. Con esta alianza, Amazon se apoya en la infraestructura de Rappi para llegar más rápido a millones de clientes latinoamericanos.  Pero no todo es tan simple: hay riesgos financieros y de crédito.   La noticia llega en un momento en que los hogares en Estados Unidos están usando más el crédito para cubrir gastos diarios. Datos de la Reserva Federal muestran que en julio el crédito rotativo, como las tarjetas, creció a un ritmo anual del 9,7 %. Esto refleja que las personas gastan más de lo que reciben en ingresos, lo que hace al crédito un puente necesario para sostener el consumo.  Este contexto ayuda a entender por qué Amazon mueve sus fichas en América Latina. El comercio electrónico depende de que la gente pueda comprar incluso cuando su bolsillo está apretado. Y ahí entran en juego los servicios financieros de Rappi, que ya no se limita a las entregas: ahora también presta plata y ofrece medios de pago.  Con esta combinación, Amazon no solo gana velocidad de entrega, también se acerca al bolsillo digital de millones de usuarios, en un momento en que la competencia por el “último kilómetro” se define tanto en la calle como en las apps de pago.  El gran reto está en el riesgo financiero. Los datos de la Fed muestran que más familias esperan dificultades para acceder a crédito en el próximo año. Un 45 % de los encuestados cree que conseguir préstamos será más difícil. Y eso se traduce en un panorama incierto para empresas que dependen de financiar consumo, como Rappi y Amazon.Además, las tarjetas con planes de pago en cuotas están creciendo, pero de manera desigual. Los llamados private label cards, que son tarjetas asociadas a tiendas específicas, crecen a un ritmo del 4,8 % anual en número de usuarios. En cambio, las tarjetas de uso general apenas crecen al 0,8 %. Esto significa que los consumidores están buscando alternativas más cercanas a comercios y marcas, algo que puede favorecer a una empresa como Rappi que combina logística, restaurantes y servicios financieros.  El problema es que si la gente se endeuda más rápido de lo que suben sus ingresos, tarde o temprano aparece el riesgo de impagos. Y eso afectaría a toda la cadena: desde el cliente hasta Amazon y Rappi.  Pese a esos riesgos, Amazon y Rappi ven la oportunidad. El acuerdo no se queda en las entregas. Incluye acceso de Rappi a la nube de Amazon Web Services, lo que mejora la capacidad tecnológica de la empresa colombiana. También abre la puerta a que Amazon utilice la base de datos de Rappi para llegar de manera más directa a millones de clientes que ya confían en su aplicación.  Para Amazon, esta inversión es relativamente pequeña —25 millones de dólares frente a sus gigantescos ingresos—, pero estratégica. Es como poner un pie firme en la puerta de un mercado que todavía tiene mucho espacio para crecer en digitalización y comercio en línea.  En el caso de Rappi, la alianza con Amazon refuerza la confianza de los inversionistas, justo cuando su fundador, Simón Borrero, ha dicho que la empresa podría salir a bolsa en 2025. Si eso ocurre, contar con el respaldo del gigante estadounidense sería una carta poderosa para atraer capital y crecer aún más.  Rappi nació en Bogotá en 2015 y en menos de 10 años se convirtió en un referente regional. Fue una de las primeras empresas latinoamericanas en lograr el estatus de “unicornio”, es decir, alcanzar un valor superior a los mil millones de dólares. Hoy compite directamente con aplicaciones como Uber Eats, iFood y PedidosYa, pero con un modelo más amplio que incluye supermercados, farmacias y, más recientemente, servicios financieros.  Amazon, por su parte, ya había intentado expandirse en América Latina con operaciones en México y Brasil, pero no había logrado el mismo impacto que en Estados Unidos o Europa. La alianza con Rappi le da una red local que entiende la logística urbana en ciudades con tráfico complejo y calles estrechas, donde las motos y bicicletas son más efectivas que las camionetas de reparto.  Si bien la inversión es de 25 millones de dólares, el impacto potencial puede ser mucho mayor: acelerar la competencia en comercio electrónico, transformar la banca digital y abrir un nuevo capítulo en la relación de Amazon con América Latina.  Amazon acaba de invertir en Rappi para acelerar las entregas y reforzar los pagos digitales en América Latina. La jugada enfrenta al gigante estadounidense con MercadoLibre y plantea un futuro en el que las apps de domicilios también serán bancos digitales. ¿Crees que esta alianza va a cambiar cómo compras en línea?Te invito a seguir el pódcast Flash Diario en Spotify para no perderte más historias como esta.   Amazon invierte 25 millones en Rappi. Entregas rápidas, pagos digitales y choque directo con MercadoLibre por el mercado latinoamericano.  

Colby Ward of Amazon Web Services talks about leveraging agentic AI for competitive advantage; navigating change management; data; & eliminating spreadsheets.  IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:   [04.04] An introduction to Colby, his background, and role at Amazon Web Services. [06.58] An overview of AWS – who they are, what they do, and how they help their customers. “Everybody knows the expression: ‘Garbage in, garbage out!' But no one seems to focus on that area enough. They seem to say: “Well, here's our solution, whatever your data is, we'll take it.” And nobody focuses on: “How can I connect your data in an easier way?” “Our goal is to eventually eliminate the spreadsheet on every supply chainers desktop!” [10.30] Where enterprise technology has focused over the last couple of decades, the positives and negatives, and how we've got to where we are today. [14.17] The problem with generic SaaS systems in supply chain, and how agentic AI can deliver improved orchestration and eliminate bias. “SaaS systems are designed to fit any customer need, not your specific needs…. It has to be built in a generic way, so they offer configurable options, different APIs, but you're molding a generic system. And the problem is: supply chain problems aren't generic. They're specific. When you translate the word supply chain, what you're really saying is business operations. So that's a big topic!” “Not conjecture, not just leaving it up to somebody's best instinct… When you're operating on data-driven decisions, you don't have to second guess.” [22.27] How businesses can tackle outdated processes and deal with dirty data to leverage agentic AI in the most effective ways. “People say that data is the new oil, and that's true. But, like oil, if it's unrefined, it's useless.” [29.17] Leveraging agentic AI for competitive advantage, and why businesses should be thinking about creating the most amount of outputs from the least amount of inputs. “Enterprise A that doesn't use AI will eventually be the lumber yard that never bothered with a chainsaw. There's a reason we moved from axes to chainsaws, and AI is your chainsaw!” [35.21] Whether or not agentic AI will level the playing field. [37.34] An overview of ontologies, process and knowledge graphs, and how they can guide agents to achieve next-level intelligence. [42.36] Change management, and how businesses should be thinking about people alongside technology to ensure the best chance of success. “If you visualize this as a tool to help you with your job, you're immediately going to be better off… Make sure you have an AI strategy in place. Don't be dismissive that this is the next new fad. It's not. It's transformative.” [45.00] Are we ready? What organizations should take away from this discussion.   RESOURCES AND LINKS MENTIONED:   Head over to Amazon Web Service's website now to find out more and discover how they could help you too.

Interview with Thomas Lamb, CEO of Myriad Uranium Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/myriad-uranium-csem-60-boost-to-potential-100-mlbs-wyoming-project-7466Recording date: 4th September 2025Myriad Uranium (CSE:M) represents a compelling investment opportunity in the rapidly evolving uranium sector, where technological advancement and market dynamics have created significant value creation potential. The company's flagship Copper Mountain project in Wyoming has undergone a transformative resource upgrade through modern measurement techniques, with CEO Thomas Lamb reporting that advanced gamma probe technology and laboratory assaying have delivered 50-60% grade improvements over historical estimates established in the 1970s.The technological advantage stems from replacing outdated Delayed Fission Neutron probes with modern gamma probe technology, revealing substantially higher uranium concentrations than previously recognized. Laboratory assays have confirmed these improvements, with grades above 1,000 ppm showing 60% boosts and those above 500 ppm demonstrating 50% increases. This upgrade positions the project's resource estimate significantly above the historical 15-30 million pound baseline, with expansion potential to 65 million pounds through surrounding prospects and ultimate potential of 200 million pounds according to US Department of Energy assessments.Market dynamics have shifted decisively in Myriad's favor as operational challenges at high-profile ISR projects have created investor skepticism toward in-situ recovery methods. Fund managers are now explicitly seeking conventional mining projects, with Lamb noting that sentiment has transformed from questioning conventional approaches to actively pursuing them. This preference shift provides Myriad with a significant competitive advantage, as the Copper Mountain project's geology supports conventional mining in the northern section while maintaining ISR optionality in the southern portion.The company's strategic consolidation through its planned merger with Rush Rare Metals will eliminate joint venture complexity while adding complementary assets. Currently holding an option to earn 75% of Copper Mountain, the merger will provide 100% ownership while incorporating Rush's high-grade Boxy project in Quebec, which contains 11% uranium and up to 27% niobium grades. This transaction exemplifies the "1 plus 1 equals three" value creation potential in the current uranium market.Myriad's Red Basin project in New Mexico has emerged as an unexpected value creator following the state's emergence as a nuclear technology hub. Acquired for just $525,000 Canadian, the project now attracts significant attention from major technology companies including Microsoft and Amazon Web Services, which are pursuing uranium supply partnerships to support data center and AI computing infrastructure. The convergence of Los Alamos National Laboratory expertise, state-level funding initiatives, and private technology investment is creating a unique development ecosystem.With $2.5 million in cash, Myriad maintains sufficient capital for immediate strategic objectives through a capital-efficient validation strategy. The company plans to conduct approximately eight targeted infill holes in Copper Mountain's central pit area to establish grade upgrades definitively before expanding to peripheral prospects. This methodology provides maximum leverage from limited drilling while building investor confidence in broader resource potential.The company's positioning as a US-focused uranium producer with assets in Wyoming and New Mexico aligns with domestic supply chain security objectives, positioning for potential strategic partnerships or acquisition scenarios. Management's plan to migrate toward US exchange listings could unlock significant valuation multiples while providing enhanced liquidity for investors seeking exposure to the uranium sector recovery.View Myriad Uranium's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/myriad-uraniumSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

A New Zealand owned cloud data storage firm is sceptical about the scale of investment in New Zealand claimed by the tech giant Amazon Web Services.

Billions of euros in planned data centre projects could be at risk following reports of a new government strategy looking to move future builds away from Dublin. Joining me now is Mike Beary, country leader for Amazon Web Services from 2017 to 2023, Now chair of the governing authority of University College Dublin. Mike, should we be concerned with this plan to move data centre projects away from Dublin?

There's hopes the promised 1,000 new jobs created from Amazon's locally based data centres will go to Kiwis. The tech giant's investing $7.5 billion into the Auckland-based centres, which go live today. It'll mean New Zealand customers can use the new cloud region to run workloads and store data locally. Amazon Web Services country manager Manuel Bohnet says they're taking a long-term view with this project. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Prime Minister has revealed tech-giant Amazon is investing $7.5 billion into New Zealand. Speaking exclusively to Newstalk ZB, Christopher Luxon says Amazon Web Services is scheduled to be announcing the investment. He told Mike Hosking it will create up to a thousand jobs, and make an $11 billion boost to GDP. Luxon says it's probably the largest ever publicly announced technology investment in New Zealand by an international tech firm. Speaking of international investors, the Prime Minister wants foreign investors to feel comfortable here so they invest more. New rules mean Active Investor Plus visa holders can now buy or build one home in New Zealand if it's worth at least $5 million. They'll still need to invest another $5 million separately, as part of the visa's criteria. Luxon told Hosking everything will fall into place for these investors once they have a house here. He says it's not just about the first $5-10 million they're spending, it's what comes after that when they start seeing more investment opportunities.

Microsoft is facing backlash from managed service providers (MSPs) for not adequately protecting them against aggressive pricing strategies employed by larger licensing solution providers. These larger entities are reportedly undercutting smaller MSPs by as much as 20%, leading to significant margin erosion and increased competition. The Cloud Solution Provider Program, which was designed to create a more equitable environment for smaller providers, has not been effectively enforced by Microsoft, leaving many MSPs feeling abandoned. Analysts warn that this trend may result in consolidation among partners, as smaller providers struggle to compete in a landscape increasingly favoring larger firms.In the realm of cybersecurity, MSPs are grappling with severe alert fatigue, with a recent survey indicating that over 75% of providers experience this issue monthly. The report highlights that larger firms are particularly affected, with nearly half of those employing over 500 staff facing daily fatigue due to excessive tools and poor integration, which leads to a high volume of false positives. Alarmingly, one in four alerts is a false positive, and many providers are hesitant to consolidate their security tools due to concerns about migration complexity and potential feature loss. Despite the clear advantages of integrating platforms and enhancing automation, only 31% of MSPs have adopted AI or security orchestration tools to alleviate their burdens.In product news, several companies have made significant announcements. SuperOps has launched an AI marketplace for MSPs in collaboration with Amazon Web Services, aiming to streamline the adoption of AI agents for various tasks. Kaseya introduced customer responsibility matrices to help MSPs comply with Department of Defense cybersecurity requirements, while ConnectWise expanded its remote monitoring and management platform to include third-party patching for over 7,000 applications. Synchro reported impressive operational efficiency improvements for a client, and Ignite unveiled a no-code framework for creating customized AI agents.Lastly, the podcast discusses the ongoing challenges faced by Intel and the vulnerabilities in Enable's remote monitoring and management solution. Intel is receiving substantial investments from SoftBank and potential support from the U.S. government, indicating a lack of market confidence in the company's performance. Meanwhile, Enable is dealing with two critical vulnerabilities that are being actively exploited, with nearly 900 servers still unpatched. The urgency for MSPs to apply updates and validate their security measures is emphasized, as these vulnerabilities pose significant risks to their operations. Four things to know today 00:00 Microsoft Faces Backlash as MSPs Accuse CSP Program of Favoring Larger Licensing Providers04:53 From SuperOps to Egnyte, Vendors Announce AI and Security Features—Syncro Stands Out With Measurable Results07:50 Chip Market Split: Intel Relies on Bailouts, Foxconn Rides Explosive AI Demand10:24 Shadowserver: Nearly 900 N-able N-central Servers Remain Unpatched Against Critical Vulnerabilities This is the Business of Tech.    Supported by: https://www.moovila.com/ https://scalepad.com/dave/ All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud dominate the infrastructure-as-a-service market, controlling 71% of the market share. This concentration is driven by the rapid growth of artificial intelligence, with global cloud spending projected to exceed $700 billion in 2025. The economic impact of AI is significant, as evidenced by Microsoft reaching a $4 trillion valuation, largely due to investments in AI infrastructure. However, this boom has created challenges for recent computer science graduates, who are struggling to find jobs in a tech industry that is increasingly adopting AI tools while simultaneously laying off employees.The job market for young tech workers is deteriorating, with unemployment rates for those aged 20 to 30 rising sharply. Economists warn of a potential "jobless recovery" for white-collar roles, as AI continues to replace routine jobs. The share of tech jobs peaked in late 2022 but has since declined, leaving graduates questioning the reliability of traditional pathways into tech careers. This shift highlights the need for companies to reassess their hiring practices and adapt to the changing landscape influenced by AI.In a concerning development, researchers have identified vulnerabilities in Google's Gemini AI Assistant that could allow attackers to hijack smart devices through manipulated calendar invites. These vulnerabilities pose significant risks as AI becomes more integrated into everyday applications. Although Google has addressed these issues, the potential for exploitation raises alarms about the security of AI systems and the importance of implementing strict controls and user training to mitigate risks.The recent launch of GPT-5 by OpenAI has sparked disappointment among users, leading to a petition for a return to the previous model. Many users feel that GPT-5 does not offer substantial improvements over its predecessor, resulting in a significant drop in OpenAI's perceived leadership in AI. This disconnect between advanced AI tools available at home and outdated technology in the workplace is causing dissatisfaction among employees, prompting organizations to evaluate their AI policies and capabilities to retain talent and enhance productivity. Four things to know today 00:00 AI Boom Fuels Cloud Giants' Growth While Squeezing Entry-Level Tech Jobs06:33 Researchers Expose Gemini AI Flaw Allowing Smart Device Hijacking via Calendar Invites08:04 GPT-5 Backlash Highlights AI Leadership Slip and Workplace Adoption Crisis11:06 Intel CEO Goes from “Conflict Risk” to “Success” in Trump's Eyes  Supported by:  https://scalepad.com/dave/https://www.moovila.com/ Tell us about a newsletter https://bit.ly/biztechnewsletter  All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

It's Friday, August 8th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus ISIS soldiers behead Christians in Mozambique, burning churches International observers are reporting that ISIS-aligned soldiers are beheading Christians and burning churches and homes in central and southern Africa – with some of the most brutal attacks happening in the nation of Mozambique, reports Fox News. The Middle East Media Research Institute – a counter-terrorism nonprofit based in Washington, D.C. – is sounding the alarm about what it describes as a "silent genocide" taking place by Muslim terrorists against Christians.   Alberto Fernandez, their Vice President, spoke to Fox News. FERNANDEZ: “What we see in Africa today is a kind of silent genocide or silent brutal, savage war that is occurring in the shadows and all too often ignored by the international community. We see rampaging jihadist groups from West Africa and even in the south in Mozambique. “The fact, for example, is that jihadist groups are in a position to take over, not one, not two, but several countries in Africa. It is very dangerous for the national security of the United States, let alone the security of the poor people who are there.” Fernandez spoke bluntly about the goal of these Muslim terrorist groups in Africa. FERNANDEZ: “The goal is eliminating Christian communities completely. These jihadist groups want to eliminate all the Christians in that area, take that area over, and keep pushing.” And he's grateful for President Trump's willingness to become involved. FERNANDEZ:  “The President's initiative in stopping the growing war between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo, its neighbor, is very significant, because this could have become a terrible war. We know that jihadists like to take advantage of vacuums, security vacuums, ungoverned spaces.” The migration agency said Monday that attacks by Muslim insurgents in Mozambique's northern Cabo Delgado province displaced more than 46,000 people in the span of eight days just last month. Sixty percent of those forced from their homes were children. The Muslim jihadists of Africa would do well to follow the advice of Gamaliel, the Pharisee from the time of Christ. In Acts 5:38-39, he said, “Leave these men alone! Let them go! For if their purpose or activity is of human origin, it will fail. But if it is from God, you will not be able to stop these men; you will only find yourselves fighting against God.” Amazon Web Services gives the Trump admin $1 billion coupon In the United States, Amazon Web Services is giving the Trump administration a $1 billion coupon to use their services for the federal government's digital transformation and artificial intelligence capacity, reports Politico.com. On Thursday, the General Services Administration announced a sweeping “OneGov” agreement with Amazon Web Services that would yield up to $1 billion in cost savings for federal agencies shifting to cloud services. But the Amazon deal is not exclusive. Similar OneGov agreements are in the works with other major cloud providers, including Microsoft and Google. Oracle also recently signed a deal giving government agencies a 75% discount on Oracle technology. Trump cancels half billion dollars of federal funding for UCLA over anti-Semitism The Trump administration has canceled $584 million in grants for the University of California in Los Angeles, claiming they did not take a strong enough stance against on-campus anti-Semitism, reports One America News. UCLA recently reached a $6 million settlement with three Jewish students and a Jewish professor who sued the school in a civil rights dispute, claiming pro-Palestinian protesters were permitted to block them from accessing certain areas on campus in 2024. President Donald Trump's office announced that the U.S. Department of Justice's Civil Rights Division found UCLA in violation of the Equal Rights Act of 1964 “by acting with deliberate indifference in creating a hostile educational environment for Jewish and Israeli students.” Catholic priest met homosexual prostitute in church parking lot Clemente Guerrero-Olvera, a Catholic parochial vicar at St. Ann Church in Clayton, North Carolina, was arrested and charged with soliciting prostitution with a 20-year-old man he allegedly met on the homosexual app named Grindr in the church's parking lot, reports LifeSiteNews.com. During an unrelated search for a missing person around 1:00 a.m. on August 4th, a police deputy spotted the young man, identified as Ja'Quavis Brinson, inside a vehicle in St. Ann's parking lot and another man, later identified as Guerrero-Olvera, who ran away, according to the Johnston County Report. The 47-year-old Catholic priest was promptly arrested and charged with felony solicitation of prostitution after an investigation revealed that he had arranged to meet the 20-year-old via Grindr, allegedly for the purpose of engaging in sexual activity. Guerrero-Olvera was booked at the Johnston County Detention Center and later released on a $2,500 secured bond. Brinson of Benson, North Carolina was charged with misdemeanor prostitution.  1 Corinthians 6:9-11 says, “Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.” Two weeks after cancellation, Colbert doubles down on liberal jokes And finally, it's been over two weeks since CBS announced on July 17th that it was cancelling The Late Show with Stephen Colbert as of May 2026. In the first show after the cancellation was announced, the leftist comedian addressed the news. COLBERT: “On Friday, Donald Trump posted, ‘I absolutely love that Colbert got fired. His talent was even less than his ratings.” (audience boos) “Over the weekend, it sunk in that they're killing off our show, but they made one mistake. They left me alive!” (audience laughs) However, Colbert has responded by doubling down on the same liberal jokes and liberal guests that made viewers (and advertising dollars) turn away in the first place, reports Newsbusters.org. According to a new Media Research Center study, Colbert's political jokes targeted conservatives and Republicans 95% of the time, and 100% of his political guests, in the two weeks since his cancellation, were liberals. In the eight episodes from July 21 through July 31, Colbert told 129 jokes about right-leaning individuals or groups compared to only seven about left-leaning people or groups. That 95% disparity is considerably higher than his 2023 number of 86% or 2024 number of 82%. The Late Show has been losing a whopping $40-50 million a year because Colbert has used his network platform to belittle half the country, reports the New York Post. COLBERT: “They pulled the plug on our show because of losses pegged between $40 million and $50 million a year. $40 million is a big number. I could see us losing $24 million, but where would Paramount have possibly spent the other 16 million? Oh, yeah.” (audience laughs) That was a dig, referencing the $16 million settlement CBS' parent company reached with President Trump just weeks ago regarding the deceptive editing of a 60 Minutes interview with Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris to aid her candidacy. Here's the edited version which aired on 60 Minutes in a segment with CBS reporter Bill Whitaker. WHITAKER: “But it seems that Prime Minister [Benjamin] Netanyahu is not listening.” HARRIS: “We are not going to stop pursuing what is necessary for the United States to be clear about where we stand on the need for this war to end.” And here is the unedited version, featuring Kamala's signature “word salad” which did not air on 60 Minutes. WHITAKER: “But it seems that Prime Minister Netanyahu is not listening. The Wall Street Journal said that he, that your administration has repeatedly been blindsided by Netanyahu. And in fact, he has rebuffed just about all of your administration's entreaties.” HARRIS: “Well, Bill, [long pause] the work that we have done has resulted in a number of movements in that region by Israel that were very much prompted by, or a result of, many things, including our advocacy for what needs to happen in the region. And we're not going to stop doing that. We're not going to stop pursuing what is necessary for the United States to be clear about where we stand on the need for this war to end.” Exodus 20:16 records the ninth commandment that God gave Moses on Mt. Sinai.  “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Friday, August 8th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  Plus, you can get the Generations app through Google Play or The App Store.
