Calling other people losers straight up, including veterans, including Kimmel. Whether you found Kimmel funny or not is not the point- the point is he was cancelled simply because T is jealous of his ratings and for no other reason.
This is so messed up and those folks lugging and supporting this fascist behavior actually think they are safe- they seem to be in denial that their turn to be canceled is coming soon enough.

Tell me more about MAGA infighting.

Dems want the gullible to believe Trump waved a magic wand & canceled the show. But it’s more likely ABC was looking for a reason to cancel an un-funny “comedy” show that was getting bad ratings.

When the head of a federal agency that can allow or block a merger says "we can do this the easy way or the hard way" that's pretty much prima facie government coercion of speech. Drop in ratings may have made it easier. If the city wants to shut down your business for illegitimate reasons but your revenues are also declining, it's a lot easier to allow the city to steamroll you into submission.

Something the right has always failed to recognize: the other side of the political spectrum has ALWAYS examined what its side is doing. For example, both the New Yorker and the Atlantic--magazines Trump despises, especially the Atlantic, and claims is failing--ran many articles in recent years asking if campus speech had become too repressive, if "safe spaces" and "trigger warnings" had gone too far, etc. I am not aware of any self examination on the part of the left.

Well, CNN did boot Brian Stelter.

Oh wait. Then they brought him back several months later. Nevermind.

Jesus Christ. These people are animals. I mean, we knew it. But seriously, they are rabid. I hope the FBI is looking into all this violent and criminal terroristic behavior. Lot of crime on Trump’s watch.

^ Cato said that? Good on them. Good to hear ACTUAL conservatives chiming in. This MAGA BS is absolutely horrific and is destroying freedom.

Cato has to know how this is going to end. It will swing the opposite way, and MAGA will be purged in a way that will make Mao’s revolution look reasonable and tempered. Using precedent MAGA created.

Let me say it again if Disney execs are reading - I am literally choosing Universal for my Florida trip this year because of this.

Dan Satterfield says the most impactful way to protest/complain is as follows:

1. See if you have a Sinclair or Nexstar station in your area.
2. Watch the local newscast tonight or sometime this week.
3. Note the companies that are advertising
4. Call those companies and let them know you will boycott them until they stop supporting those media companies.

I guess I need to sell my Disney stock. And end the Disney + subscription. My wallet is the only power I have.

+1 For those of us in DC, your Sinclair station is WJLA channel 7. Your Nextstar station is channel 50.

Ironically him being cancelled is the funniest thing he ever did. Truly suffering for his art.

SNL is the most watched show on NBC, btw.

I mean, if we are being accurate, it’s Sunday Night Football.

“Most watched” show on NBC isn’t say much. I haven’t watched SNL in over a decade and the last time I watched a late night talk show was in the Leno and Conan days. And I’m not old
