President Donald Trump has once again taken aim at corporate media, this time zeroing in on NBC over its decision to keep Seth Meyers fronting Late Night through 2028. In a post on social media, Trump ripped into the move, calling Meyers “one of the least talented Late Night television hosts out there.”

“There is a sick rumor going around that Fake News NBC extended the contract of one of the least talented Late Night television hosts out there, Seth Meyers,” Trump wrote. “He has no Ratings, Talent, or Intelligence, and the Personality of an insecure child. So, why would Fake News NBC extend this dope’s contract. I don’t know, but I’ll definitely be finding out!!!”

NBCUniversal had announced Meyers’ contract extension during a May media upfront, touting his supposed ability to “resonate with his audience night after night.” Katie Hockmeyer, the network’s executive vice president of late night programming, claimed that “we’re so happy to continue this legacy franchise with Seth at the helm.”

Trump, however, clearly wasn’t buying it. The president’s scathing remarks come just weeks after CBS abruptly pulled the plug on Stephen Colbert’s The Late Show—a move Trump openly celebrated as a victory for viewers fed up with late-night propaganda disguised as comedy.

Meyers himself has hinted at how fragile his footing is. On a recent podcast appearance, he admitted that the thought of cancellation had him worried about his “mental health.” Meyers confessed that if NBC were to drop his show, he would have to “diversify” by exploring stand-up comedy or other creative avenues, conceding that he has little control over his own future.

“Certainly, financially, I could have been fine just doing the show for the last 11 years. But then it was like, ‘Oh, you know what? I feel like there’s something to trying to build a stand-up career and trying to do other things,’” Meyers admitted.

Despite NBC’s confidence in Meyers, the reality remains that late-night TV has been hemorrhaging viewers for years, as Americans increasingly tune out one-sided political rants masquerading as entertainment. Trump’s blistering attack highlights the disconnect between corporate executives who protect their ideological allies and everyday viewers who have grown tired of it all.

For Trump, the fight against biased media remains a cornerstone of his political brand. While NBC executives call Meyers a “fixture,” the president frames him as part of the problem—a symbol of a failing entertainment industry that has prioritized partisan loyalty over talent, ratings, and relatability.

Whether or not NBC executives change course, Trump has made it clear: he plans to dig deeper into why a host with sinking influence keeps getting rewarded with more airtime. And given how Colbert’s downfall shocked the industry just weeks ago, Meyers might not be as safe as NBC wants Americans to think.
