Melina Khan, USA TODAY ; CBS walks back copyright claims on Stephen Colbert local access episode
"CBS has backed off copyright claims about Stephen Colbert's surprise appearance on local access TV – at least for now.
On May 22, after signing off from "The Late Show," the comedian made an unexpected return to "Only in Monroe," a Michigan-based local access show. He once guest-hosted the show before taking over David Letterman's CBS spot in 2015.
But after Colbert's "Only in Monroe" appearance, CBS sparked backlash when it sent copyright notices to YouTube channels that were sharing the episode.
Now, the network is holding off on takedown notices pending further review, it said in a statement to USA TODAY."
