Charlie Kirk Killer Plea Deal?

[Delldude]

What you like is that you are silencing the opposition.

Along with Colbert, Kimmel's rating's and production costs were an issue. Your late night 'news' is heading for the trash heap.

I didn't watch him anyway. So I guess I silenced him on my own..

 

[sealybobo]

His ratings suck ass, just like your taste in entertainment.

Breaking down claim CBS was losing $40M a year on Colbert's 'Late Show'

Rumors about the $40 million annual losses appeared to stem from reports published by a media outlet called Puck and the New York Post.

www.snopes.com

• In July 2025, as some critics of CBS's decision to cancel "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" questioned the network's motives, social media posts claimed the popular late-night show was losing at least $40 million per year.
• The claim appeared to stem from reports published by a media outlet called Puck and the New York Post on July 18. However, Snopes could not corroborate the reporting because it relied on information from anonymous sources.

While the show still garners an average of 2.47 million viewers a night, leads its 11:35 rivals in total audience, and just this week scored its ninth consecutive Emmy nomination for outstanding talk/variety series, its ad revenue has plummeted precipitously since the 2021-22 season,"

Executives didn't first ask key talent to take pay cuts, fire people or slash costs before cancelling this very popular show?

So they should put in Seth Meyers. He got rid of his band. That saves the company a lot of money.
Oh well. All good things come to an end. And paybacks a *****.

"Colbert might be No. 1, but who watches late night TV anymore?"

broadcast networks took in an estimated $439 million in advertising revenue for their late-night programs as recently as 2018.

In 2024, that number dwindled to $220 million

Still 220 million. What are they going to replace these shows with? They just killed themselves.

Your Snopes article neither claimed true or false......

MSNBC has a comedy show, Maddow.

You do know it was ABC affiliates who told ABC they weren't going to carry Kimmel anymore from viewer outrage. Nextar and Sinclair broadcasting groups...... their advertiser's freaked out..... Bob Eiger then pulled the show indefinitely, not Trump.

Kimmel was offered a chance to go on the next night and apologize for his comments and refused.

Heard rumors his show will be preempted in those markets with Charlie Kirk event videos.

I would be OK with a plea deal to spare Charlie Kirk's killer the death penalty if he would agree to testify that he was incited by the major media outlets, who could then be criminally prosecuted for conspiracy to commit murder. What say you?

If I knew there would be real consequences for Democrat Controlled media, I would agree. But I know there wouldn't be so I vote for death by firing squad.

Yeah, wouldn't that be typical of the right wing, trying to turn this whole affair into a way of getting fascism, and getting people fired for suggesting that they're turning this whole affair into a way of getting fascism?


Get a kid who killed someone you like, and get them to lie to save their life, and save them from the death penalty.

Let's not forget that Utah has only executed 8 people since 1976.

With a homicide rate of 2.0 according to the FBI and 2.7 according to the CDC, with 1.8 per 100,000 people being from guns.

So, with 72 murders in 2019, most of which were gun murders, you want to execute this kid in Utah.

The last person to be executed raped and killed his girlfriend's mother.

The one before that killed two people, one of which was killing an attorney (which was the one that got him the death penalty, because killing a non-attorney is not so bad, apparently)

You have to go back to 1999 before you get someone executed for the offense of murdering one person only.

But you assume this kid's going to get executed because the right wing liked the guy he killed. Right.

Not what I heard. So you are repeating fake news.

Jake Tapper is on Colbert right now. They can't believe Trump supporters are celebrating this. The next Democratic president will use his FCC to threaten corporations too.

But just because you don't like Kimmel, Colbert, Fallon, TDS and Meyers, doesn't mean this is a good thing. But I suspect many of you would rather have a dictator like Putin, so long as he's conservative, instead of sometimes having a liberal president/government. You even forgive stealing elections. We know. You've done it 3 times in my lifetime as far as I know. Maybe 4.

 

[Delldude]

Not what Maddow said, huh.....

So you are repeating fake news.

No, I'm reporting factual news.

You fell prey to the tickler/trigger word 'Trump' at the start of the 'news' you follow.

OBTW, your failed Snopes article......do some research and find out why your late night 'pseudo news' shows are doing so poorly on ratings and why they're all headed for the chopping block.

STFU and pay your tarrifs.

 

[Rawley]

I could wrap my head around one plea “deal” for the assassin.

In exchange for his non revokable entry of a guilty plea (also requiring a full and honest allocation of what he did and how and how he planned it and naming his accomplices, if any) and including a firm agreement to never appeal his conviction or sentence, the United States (or the state of Utah) will permit him to choose between two options for how he will be executed:

1. Death by hanging, or

2. Death by electric chair.

There’s the plea offer. Take it or leave it.

LOL spellcheck "Allocution"

Do they intentionally not watch/read anything but their loon media feeds them, or do they dismiss anything contradictory to what they're told as "fake?"

IRVING, TX (Sept. 17, 2025)—Nexstar Media Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: NXST), today announced that the company’s owned and partner television stations affiliated with the ABC Television Network will preempt “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” for the foreseeable future beginning with tonight’s show. Nexstar strongly objects to recent comments made by Mr. Kimmel concerning the killing of Charlie Kirk and will replace the show with other programming in its ABC-affiliated markets.


“Mr. Kimmel’s comments about the death of Mr. Kirk are offensive and insensitive at a critical time in our national political discourse, and we do not believe they reflect the spectrum of opinions, views, or values of the local communities in which we are located,” said Andrew Alford, President of Nexstar’s broadcasting division. “Continuing to give Mr. Kimmel a broadcast platform in the communities we serve is simply not in the public interest at the current time, and we have made the difficult decision to preempt his show in an effort to let cooler heads prevail as we move toward the resumption of respectful, constructive dialogue.”

It probably allowed me to do so. But I failed to edit (or missed it). My bad.

Yes. I thought I had typed allocution.

I don't think that's how plea deals work.

This fucktard is facing execution.

There is nothing he can testify to that the FBI doesn't already likely know about.
