Stephen Colbert is among the many disappointed by the delayed start to the trial in the $1.6 billion defamation suit against Fox News filed by Dominion Voting Systems.
The judge didn’t give a reason for the delay, but Fox News was reportedly trying to settle out of court.

With no court action on Monday, there was no sketch ― not an official one, anyway.
So Colbert’s team made their own just for “The Late Show.”
“Here’s a little behind-the-scenes info,” Colbert offered. “To make that sketch, we just traced a scrotum and drew glasses on it.”
The audience erupted.
