During the Monday broadcast of CBS’ “The Late Show,” host Stephen Colbert saluted the passing of Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia.

Scalia “was universally acknowledged to be an intellectual giant, who left his mark not only on the court, but on how to interpret the Constitution,” Colbert stated.

“And whether or not you agreed with him or made a lot of jokes about him, like I did, one thing you’ve got to admit is that he had a great sense of humor,” he continued. “That might be part of the reasons why he could be such good friends with justices he disagreed with.”
