Kimmel's show was very popular. ABC, like CBS, is cutting off it's nose to spite its face. Kimmel will be invited to speak his mind on Fallon and Colbert. |
Absolutely disturbing. Robespierre and the silencing of free speech.
|
They both received threats from the FCC which would have put both networks out of business. We live in an authoritarian regime. The sooner people understand that, the sooner people might start to do something about it. |
Colbert has been cancelled, too. I can’t believe the media is rolling over for Trump… sad, sad day and era. |
From a different thread, I am sharing my own post.
Kimmell, cancelled in September, at the request of the president for remarks related to the murder of Charlie Kirk. However, in reality, the remarks weren’t “about Charlie Kirk,” they were about how this administration is using Kirk’s death as an excuse to shut down critics … and the administration responded by proving Kimmel completely correct. |
I’m so mad right now I can’t even see straight. I just see colors. Like rage. I just wanna F something up. |
"the media" and the various leading social media platforms are mostly owned by billionaires. Of course they are going to kowtow to the authoritarian. That's how this works. |
DCUM is probably next.
We need to boycott. I have a Disney subscription. It's getting canceled tonight! |

Unbelievable. What was it that they objected to?!
Are you happy yet Republicans??? |
Disgusting behavior by our authoritarian regime. I feel so powerless. |
The comments that got him fired:
In his monologue, Kimmel said: "We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it." He also took a swipe at President Trump's response, joking that Trump was in the "fourth stage of grief: construction." |
