alt Hacker NewsHBO Max still airs “Last Week with John Oliver”.
Even Paramount still has “South Park” and the creators are basically daring Paramount to cancel them.

Didn't the South Park contract predate the Skydance takeover?

It's hard to cancel popular shows for political reasons (at least in america) - it's too transparent.
But its possible to starve them of talent, funding and eventually let them wither into obscurity, by not promoting nor giving it the opportunity to flourish.
But there's still youtube even if these incumbent media outlets are compromised - independents can still create and distribute there. This is very different from the airwaves or cable.
