Reports differ across sources; according to forbes.com, topline Late night host Jimmy Kimmel blasted CBS in a new interview and accused the network of lying about why it canceled "The Late Show" with Stephen Colbert, saying executives used "made-up numbers" to call the move a financial decision and claiming his own show, which has aired on ABC since 2003 (and drew in fewer viewers) is still profitable.
