Jimmy "The asshole" Kimmel tossed off thd air.

…

Look for more of this as American conglomerates (media or otherwise) become unafraid of the weak left.

Well, that’s actually the opposite of what’s happening.

Where were these voices of outrage when FOX canned Carlson????

Carlson is prospering with his podcasts I'm sure Kimmel can do the same, right?

Again, Tucker being given the boot by Fox was not about a 1a issue. Can you explain how it was?

You're demented.

That's a chicken-shit thing to do - write in your own quote and pretend it was mine. Cowardly and stupid. You do know that there's an arrow to take you to the original quote, right?

Liar.

It’s not a matter of free speech. Nexstar is licensed to broadcast abc and determined its view base found the comments inappropriate. ABC pulled the show from cable too. Sinclair broadcast license holder for the majority of abc affiliates followed suit.
Is abc pulling the show a violation of the first amendment? How? ABC is not the government, nor is nexstar or Sinclair. So where is it you think we are headed? What did maga have to do with it?
I forget who is buying who nexstar or Sinclair, but this will sweeten the deal. Broadcaster influencing what affiliates broadcast.

Spoken like a true believer. MAGA FCC chairman accusations/pressure/threat and billion dollar media deals had nothing to do with the decision to pull Kimmel, and Colbert for that matter.

Do you even read the things you post?
Stick to the memes, ok, twat jr.

Do you not comprehend English? It supports my point perfectly.

WSJ reports that Kimmel had planned to address the controversy on his show Wednesday night. He told Disney execs that he was going to blame MAGA for his behavior. Disney execs concluded that would only make things worse so they pulled the plug on him.

Amusing.

Craig Ferguson. David Letterman.

The rest never should have had shows in the first place.

Congress has dug up a substantial amount of compelling circumstantial evidence, ENOUGH to initiate a grand jury panel and convict any regular citizen. But, since Biden owned the DOJ they never pursued criminal charges. Do you really think Biden ,on the way out the door, pardoned his whole family because they were as pure as the driven snow. Do your homework and don't believe the tripe that comes from Laz, MR, BnF and a whole host of Trump haters.

Put down the pipe, son. You’re forgetting the committee tried as hard as it could to find evidence of crimes but they just wound up sputtering. And he only pardoned family to protect them from trump going after them because trump’s a thinned skinned bully.

What’s your stupid point???
I need to read the tea leaves to make me see a thing that you and maga didn’t yourself see coming and armed liberals are executing people like you in the streets???

Again I ask, do you read the shit you post???

 

[HisArpy]

Ultimately the question for MAGA supporters is whether or not the constitution, more specifically the Bill of Rights, is still the sacred law of the US?

If the 2nd Amendment should be taken in the most flexible form possible, why should the same application of the law not apply to the other other amendments?

And Libel and Slander are also addressed in the first amendment.

But you cannot legally directly or indirectly influence target individuals or organizations for criticism of their speech. The most recent decision, which was decided by the current Supreme Court, was decided 9-0 in favor of the NRA for this exact purpose

The GOVERNMENT didn't cancel Kimmel; ABC did.

Get that one fact into your head and then ask yourself if a Constitutional restriction applicable to government applies at all to this situation.

 

[HisArpy]

As usual Radicalized democrats can’t read the tea leaves. The wind is shifting. The sails are filling and the boat is lurching to starboard. The media landscape isn’t what it was in 2016. What could be ignored then will not be now.

I’m not surprised they didn’t see this coming. A lot of us on the right didn’t either, but the correction to normality, or what used to pass for normal is happening. That the left is so pissed they’re shooting us in the streets is telling.

I saw it. I've even been saying it; the Left lost the culture war when Joe Biden was elected in 2020. It was the last battle they won and it cost them everything.

Explain how what he said was offensive?
What ABC rule on conduct did he break?

They lost the culture war but also it was the last battle they won.

Yall are just sayin mad libs words now.

ABC was pressured to fire Kimmel by the government.

Exactly. Here’s how Donnie has weaponized government agencies to eliminate opposition to his authoritarian rule.

Donnie’s Authoritarian Retribution Tour uses the federal government to attack everyone who doesn’t support him.

• Used the federal government to attack law firms that took cases against him
• Used the federal government to attack universities because educated people didn’t vote for him
• Sued the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times because they hurt his feelings by reporting the truth
• Lashed out at individuals who didn’t support him (Taylor Swift, Bruce Springsteen)
• Coerced ABC and CBS into paying bribes to him personally
• Removed voting rights protections for minorities because they didn’t vote for him
• Urged states to enact more extreme gerrymandering to disenfranchise voters who didn’t vote for him
• Deployed the military to blue cities to intimidate people who didn’t vote for him
• Used the FCC’s control over media mergers to get Kimmel cancelled because Kimmel hurt his feelings

A little self awareness is what you need.

damn, hes been a busy boy , all that aannddd finding time to make this country better than it was?? Keep up the good work donnie

It wasn't me who pulled the plug, it was ABC and they did it because station owners and advertisers yanked their support and MONEY if he wasn't removed.

So, whatever the fuck you want to think about how "offensive" or "inoffensive" his words were, that call was made by the higher ups in the ABC food chain.

His "crime" was interrupting the smooth flow of money into the pockets of corporate types and shareholders. Which in media is worse than anything else you can think of.

 

[HisArpy]

ABC was pressured to fire Kimmel by the government.

No they weren't. Advertisers told ABC that if Kimmel wasn't disciplined they'd stop advertising across the board, not just on his show.

We're talking BILLIONS of dollars here.

ABC sacrificed Kimmel to save themselves. Which, given the current social climate, was prudent.

 

[HisArpy]

They lost the culture war but also it was the last battle they won.

Yall are just sayin mad libs words now.

Not my fault you're stupid.

But then again, that's why you idjits lost the culture war.

You’re mistaking Jimmy Kimmel with someone else. Name the advertisers that threaten to pull their ads. This is some bullshit and everything else that you said was bullshit too.

 

[Chernosoth]

Don't interrupt your enemies when they make mistakes. Letting Kimmel continue helping the Dems self-destruct could have been the smarter move. But Trump may have figured that job is done.

 

[Bn2f]

First you assholes came here claiming that he made a bad joke, then he violated ABC policies, and now you’re pushing that advertisers were behind his suspension. Next, we will hear that Kimmel wasn’t really the intended target, but his employment of Guillermo was.
