NEW YORK, Sept. 8, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- <a href=http://www.aec-ist.com/css/Gucci-Belts-Online-Prescription-Frames-Designer-Glasses-Parfums.html>Gucci Designer Glasses</a>  The CBS Television Network announced today that James Corden will be the new host of THE LATE LATE SHOW. Corden a multi-faceted performer, host, writer and producer with accomplishments that span television, theater, film and comedy will take the reins of the daily late night show in 2015.
(CNN) The family of slain American hostage Steven Sotloff believes ISIS paid as much as $50,000 to rebels who alerted the militant group that the journalist had entered Syria, a spokesman told CNN.
+
  The 36-year-old Corden comes to American late night television with a growing list of award-winning and critically acclaimed credits. He is a Tony Award-winning performer on Broadway, a BAFTA-winning star of a UK television series, a feature film actor with two releases this year, and an acclaimed host, writer and producer in several genres of television.  
The family had learned from sources on the ground that a member of a moderate rebel group reached out to ISIS, Barak Barfitold told CNN s Anderson Cooper 360 on Monday.
+
Currently, Corden is starring opposite Keira Knightley and Mark Ruffalo in "Begin Again," which is in theaters now, and will star opposite Meryl Streep, Johnny Depp and Emily Blunt in the highly anticipated feature film "Into the Woods," which hits theaters in December. Additionally, Corden hosts the BAFTA Award-winning UK sports-themed comedy game show "A League of Their Own" on Sky 1 and stars in, produces and writes the BAFTA nominated comedy thriller "The Wrong Mans," which is available on Hulu and airs on the BBC.
  Somebody at the border crossing made a phone call to ISIS, and they set up a fake checkpoint with many people, Barfi said. Steve and his people that he went in with could not escape.  
+
  "James Corden is a rare entertainment force who combines irresistible charm, warmth and originality with a diverse range of creative instincts and performance talent," said Nina Tassler, Chairman, CBS Entertainment. "He is the ultimate multi-hyphenate a writer, creator and performer who is loved and respected in every medium he touches, including theater, comedy, music, film and television. James is already a big star in the UK and he's wowed American audiences on Broadway; we're very excited to introduce his considerable and very unique talents to our network television audience on a daily basis."
Barfi said the tipster was one of the so-called moderate rebels that people want our administration to support.  
+
  "I can't describe how thrilled and honoured I am to be taking over from the brilliant Craig Ferguson," said Corden. "To be asked to host such a prestigious show on America's #1 network is hugely exciting. I can't wait to get started, and will do my very best to make a show America will enjoy."
So how much was the tip worth?
+
  Outside of his native England, James Corden attracted international attention as the lead in the hit comedic play "One Man, Two Guvnors," performing first in the National Theatre and the West End in London and then on Broadway, which earned him the 2012 Tony Award for Best Leading Actor in a Play. His additional theater credits include the worldwide tour of "The History Boys" in the role of Timms, which he also played in the feature film adaptation.
Sotloff s whereabouts were sold for something between $25- and $50,000, Barfi said.
+
On television, Corden starred as Smithy in the critically acclaimed BBC comedy series "Gavin and Stacey," which he co-created and co-wrote. For his role, he earned the BAFTA Television Award for Best Male Comedy Performance in 2008 and the British Comedy Award for Best Male Comedy Performer in 2007. The series received the British Comedy Award for Best TV Comedy in 2008 as well as the National Television Award for Most Popular Comedy Programme in 2010. Prior to that, Corden starred in the British television series "Fat Friends" from 2000 to 2005, which earned him a nomination for the 2000 Royal Television Society Award for Network Newcomer On Screen. He also had a recurring role in the popular BBC science fiction series "Doctor Who" as Craig Owens, the Doctor's roommate. In addition, Corden hosted the Brit Awards, the biggest event in the British music industry, from 2010 to 2014.
  False accusations
+
Over the course of his career, Corden has been awarded the Royal Television Society Award for Comedy Writer <a href=http://www.aec-ist.com/css/Gucci-Outlet-Online-High-Tops-Digital-Watch-Glasses-Men.html>Gucci Glasses Men</a>  of the Year for his work on "The Wrong Mans," the Writers' Guild of Great Britain Award for Comedy Writer of the Year, the South Bank Show Award for Comedy, the Tric Award for Best Comedy and the National Television Award in 2010 for Best Comedy.
Sotloff, a 31-year-old freelance journalist, disappeared during a reporting trip to Syria in August 2013. Barfi said last saw his friend off the morning he disappeared.
+
  Corden's additional film credits include "How to Lose Friends and Alienate People," with Jeff Bridges; "Gulliver's Travels," with Jack Black; and "The Three Musketeers," with Orlando Bloom.
  Minutes before he was kidnapped, he called me from inside Syria to tell me that he was in, Barfi said.
+
  THE LATE LATE SHOW with JAMES CORDEN will be produced by CBS. The creative elements, as well as the producers and the location for the Corden-hosted LATE LATE SHOW, will be determined and announced at a later date.  
Sotloff was supposedly turned over because his name was on a list of people responsible for a hospital bombing, his friend said.
+
  Corden succeeds Craig Ferguson, the critically acclaimed host of the CBS late night series for the past 10 years. Ferguson announced his intention to leave the show during his April 28 broadcast, and will sign off in December 2014.  
  This was false. Activists spread his name around, Barfi told Cooper.
+
  THE LATE LATE SHOW is broadcast weeknights on the CBS Television Network from 12:37 AM-1:37 AM, ET/PT.
In fact, Steve <a href=http://www.aec-ist.com/css/Gucci-Discount-Size-Chart-Outfits-Used-Handbags.html>Gucci Outfits</a>  loved the Arab and Islamic world, and he wanted to bring their suffering to the world stage, Barfi said. He believed that everybody was created equal, and the people in the Arab and Islamic world weren t terrorists, they were just people like you and me.

Was the beheading preventable?

The gruesome video of an ISIS militant decapitating Sotloff spurred international outrage at ISIS, the Islamist terror group that refers to itself as the Islamic State. The group is trying to establish strict Islamist rule over swaths of Syria and Iraq and has captured cities in <a href=http://www.aec-ist.com/css/Gucci-Handbags-Outlet-Leather-Jacket-Man-Gucci.html>Gucci Handbags Outlet</a>  both countries.
+
But that video wasn t the first time Sotloff was featured in an ISIS message.
+
  SOURCE CBS Corporation
Sotloff appeared in the earlier decapitation video of James Foley, another American journalist who was beheaded by an ISIS militant. In that video, a militant said Sotloff s life depended on what President Barack Obama did next.
+
 
Once Steve appeared in that video, the Sotloff family made one simple request of the administration and they were rebuffed on that, Barfi told CNN. He declined to elaborate on the request, citing the safety of those who are still being held hostage.
+
RELATED LINKS
He said the relationship between the Sotloff family and the White House was very strained.  
+
  We do not believe they gave us the cooperation (the family needed), he said.
+
National Security Council spokeswoman Caitlin Hayden said the administration is still committed to the cases of Sotloff and Foley.
+
  We understand the very real pain the Sotloff family is feeling at this time. Our thoughts and prayers are with them as they grieve Steven s loss, Hayden said.
+
  We condemn the murders of Steven and Jim Foley and we remain committed to bringing the perpetrators of these crimes to justice.
+
But Barfi also lamented the release of information about an unsuccessful U.S. commando raid this summer that attempted to free Foley, Sotloff and others.
+
  We know that the intelligence community and the White House are enmeshed in a larger game of bureaucratic infighting, and Jim and Steve are pawns in that game. And that s not fair, Barfi said.
+
  If there continues to be leaks, the Sotloff family will have to speak out to set the record straight.  
+
Up to $10 million reward
+
A group of bipartisan senators introduced a bill Monday that would authorize up to $10 million for information leading to the arrest and conviction of anyone involved in the Foley <a href=http://www.aec-ist.com/css/Cheap-Gucci-Handbags-Side-Bag-1627-Frame.html>Gucci Side Bag</a>  and Sotloff abductions and beheadings.
+
James Foley and Steven Sotloff nobly risked their lives in the pursuit of truth, and the United States will not stand idly by after two of its own were brutally murdered at the hands of fundamentally evil and freedom-hating extremists, Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Florida, said in a statement.
+
Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, D-New Hampshire, echoed that sentiment.
+
James and Steven contributed greatly to the world through their reporting, and we must vigorously pursue those responsible for their murders.
