Axing Jimmy Kimmel Is Government Suppression of Political Speech!

[AntonToo]

No one said he can't say the things he says... he just can't say them on ABC.... let him start a podcast...

Yep, you go with that.

We are going to have a lot of podcasters who were fired from mainstream media for god forbid saying anything your government doesn't happen to like.

And guess what, they will all be rightwingers as soon as a Democrats get in control.

Late night TV just got better....

You’re an authoritarian.

 

[Rambunctious]

Being fired after the Trump administration threatens the stations is pretty close.

Did Trump make Kimmel a boring show that didn't make a profit???? stop lying....

Trump’s administration threatened government punishment because stations aired his show.

That’s authoritarian.

 

[Mac-7]

Being fired for what you say is not the same as being thrown in prison for what you say... so Kimmel can continue to lie but not on ABC... plus his show sucked and was not making money....

True

He could be a Brit in chains somewhere in the UK

Except not, since his personal belief system is as perverted as the quacks abusing their power over ordinary native born citizens

 

[jc456]

"Tormenting the tiger"?

He is no tiger, he is a shameless power abusing authoritarian and you rightwingers are his enablers.

what are we enabling? are you suggesting that we have no right of representative?

Knock yourself out... but dems won't be in control again in our lifetime...

well there's that and, he had a contract and to stay within the limits of said contract. violation of contract is his problem not free speech.

 

[jc456]

Trump’s administration threatened government punishment because stations aired his show.

what was that supposed punishment?

That’s authoritarian.

what is?

 

[Rambunctious]

Isn't it libtards that say words are like bullets?....

I can't go up to a woman at my company and say, hey tits meet toots.

 

[AntonToo]

Fruitcakes don't like free speech.

I didn't ask you about what fruicakes like.

The reason you are answering a question no one asked is because you don't want to answer the actual question.

which is what? Kimmel had a contract and he violated it.

 

[AntonToo]

Without trump, and with 8 years of hillary clinton and the democrats, America would be at the bottom of shitcan by now

Rationalization 101.

You are saying Trump's corrupt abuse of power is a-ok, so long as he serves your partisan interests.

But guess what, Trump will be soon gone and you'll be left reaping the corrupt abuse of power by people who's politics you won't happen to like.

This is where your short sighted, unprincipled tribalism is heading our country.

FYI: Kimmel hasn't been fired and it's likely that he'll be back on air at some point in the near future, reportedly ABC is already working with Kimmel on what he should say when he returns.

However, He may not be back on the NexStar Media owned affiliate stations though, after all they want FCC approval for the Tegnar merger.

Yes it is

And hopefully it wont go that far

But the media is so partisan lib politically biased that its become an issue

The networks need to reform themselves

 

[LordBrownTrout]

No it's not. How soon you forget social media shutting down all debate on the mRNA injections that were deadly and injurious.

I don’t know what’s worse. Seeing you defend authoritarianism or seeing you admit that you’re defending authoritarianism.
