Zone1 Is Jimmy Kimmel a victim of a free speech crackdown ?

[Zebra]

It looks like it to me. You may disagree with him but being distasteful should not be illegal.

I saw a small clip of what got him banned and it seemed reasonable enough. The right has gone into overdrive on this issue with several leading members of the regime making unwise comments.

The killer has not even gone on trial yet.

It isnt the job of govt to stifle debate. That used to be an american belief but now it doesnt seem to be a thing.

It started with the banning of the AP and he got away with that. America needs an enshrined right to free speech not just approved speech.

i think in the US one can even spread Nazi slogans?

 

[sartre play]

Wonder how many on here would admit that they paid little to no attention to either one of them.

That is mandatory on musks forum.

like his Nazi salute ....

Kimmel is still alive and free to make false claims all he wants. He still has way more free speech than in most parts of the world today. There is no crackdown on free speech, this is just neo-leftists trying to change the topic away from the fact that one of their own just murdered Charlie Kirk. That murder was a crackdown on free speech. Kimmel has a lot more free speech than Charlie Kirk today.

Let's see the ratings with him gone.

And I thought Colbert was about him losing CBS money. This recent attack on free speech was because of hate speech. And look at you celebrating it.

At 11:30 p.m. The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on CBS is the top-watched show by total viewers, averaging 2.417 million viewers, while Jimmy Kimmel Live! on ABC led in the key 18-49 demographic.

Trump just killed another industry. Cable. It was dying anyways but....

I just cancelled my cable. Now I can afford Trump's tariffs.

I'll just have to get my anti Trump info from the internet.

Are they going to cancel the Daily Show too?

If they're concerned about profits, they should.

LOL

 

[protectionist]

Colbert, now Kimmel.

The rest will be far more careful now, and that goes for every profession, which is how this works.

More parallels to the past. We continue to edge closer to fascism, and that appears to be what the flock wants.

You, et al, are too far lost from reality to probably get focused, but it's always worthwhile to make a venture to understand what you don't grasp. This link, AND the videos within it, can be a help .....IF you proceed to it >>>

Media Spins Charlie Kirk’s Murder — Leftist Lies Try to Rewrite the Truth About Who Really Killed Him

Let’s be real here, if the tables were turned a great number of you would have their panties in a wad screaming bloody murder. The fact that a corporation decides the content, nature of comments disrespectful, contrary to the fundamental beliefs of common decency, prompts the decision of a corporation to cancel a show or cease advertising has nothing to do with censorship.

Did Abraham Lincoln believe in the right of 'free speech'?

Not poor ratings then ?

Are they going to cancel the Daily Show too?

Look at the ratings when Carson left the Tonight Show, his last show had 45 million viewers, his average was 17 million nightly. Letterman was 15 million nightly. Compare them to the late night talk shows of today, 5.77 for three talk shows, looks like nobody really cared about talk shows anymore. I haven’t watched any since Leno

 

[Hollie]

Do you even have to ask?

Where are the 1st amendment constitutional Republicans on this? The only right winger who will condemn this is Papageorgio but then of course he will point to one thing Biden did and say Dems are no better or different.

As if what's going on right now is not insane.

I love it every time I tell my MAGA friend something fucked up Trump did, he says something like "good I'm glad because I never liked Kimmel, or Howard Stern......" He doesn't realize that doesn't matter. If you are for freedom, then you want people you don't like to be free too. Did Kimmel cross a line? Nope. He made fun of Trump's reaction to a reporter when he was asked if he's broken up about Charlie. Trump sure didn't seem too broken up. Is that a crime to point these things out?

I don't know where all the late shows get these tapes of politicians saying the craziest shit but if it weren't for these shows, none of us would see these things. And that's exactly what Republicans want. This is why they hate the media.

The only thing we can do is vote next year and I doubt these next elections will be honest.

A typical leftist election denier.

 

[Hollie]

He started with the AP.Everyone laughed because it neatly displayed the brittleness of his character. Narcissim writ large.
His attacks on late night hosts just targets a small demographic and I trust they will get work elsewhere.

His attacks on legal firms and universities are more concerning. In truth nobody gets upset seeing lawyers getting a beating. But they do fulfil an important role in society.

How can you get a free trial if the state picks your legal team ? Its just not possible.

I dont see trump as bright enough to work this out for himself. It has required a higher level of cunning than trump has. One of his Project 25 goons no doubt.

As conspiracy theories go. Yours are not very entertaining.

Spoken like a true Socialist. If this had been a Biden Lacky with a following and he was Shot this entire Country would be in a Uproar yelling MAGA TRUMP followers are Killers! If anyone on TV or Radio tried to label this person as a LIBERAL he would be fired immediately! Maybe YOU can tell us how he got the brilliant Idea that he’s a Trump supporter Regarding “ free speech “ Conservatives have been forcefully silenced for years.

The AP was never banned, they have been restricted from smaller events but are at White House press conferences.
