Stephen Colbert gave ousted CNN chief Chris Licht a hilarious on-air tribute a year before CNN fired him

detonated a wave of resentment among the network's staff and leadership.

"There are bosses, and then there are leaders," Colbert said, as Licht listened from the wings."Bosses tell you what to do. Leaders work as hard as you do to do what needs to be done. And that is why he earned the respect of all of us here who live in the clown car."Licht had been credited with nudging the CBS show into first place — blowing Colbert past Jimmy Fallon's"Tonight Show" to take the late-night crown.

"Six years later, I love you," Colbert said. The camera then pans to Licht, who puts his hand over his heart in thanks.
