The FCC may be going after Jimmy Kimmel for his claiming Charlie Kirk's killer was MAGA.

You don't seem to understand the first amendment. It's the right to be free from government censorship and persecution. Only the government can limit your "free speech."

You don't understand that I've seen no evidence of government stifling speech. However I have of some moonbat queer doing it

 

[krichton]

There's no evidence the government threatened anyone's broadcast licence. That's just what is being put out by your media

Carr literally admitted to it publicly. lol

They just did it when Carr threatened to pull ABC's license.

 

[krichton]

Liberal whiners should look to FDR and Father Coughlin. This is hardly new territory. The airwaves belong to the government, misuse has consequences.

What's considered "misuse?" What did Kimmel do that would fall under that heading? Go!

 

[Frankeneinstein]

Nope, I’m not 19 white and willingly stupid.

No one claimed it was due to your willingness.

 

[Frankeneinstein]

You remind me of the fluffer in porn.

I can assure you I am neither guy

 

[WEATHER53]

So the show is suspended.
There have been far worse comments here than what Kimmel said. I don’t think his comments were awful but it’s a live wire now so don’t mess with it.

 

[Frankeneinstein]

I’m a maga sycophant blah blah blah blah…

good for you

 

[krichton]

As soon as you show that Trump has done that. Trump hasn't taken anyone off of the air. Neither has the FCC. This decision was made by ABC--the parent company of Kimmel's show. They got tired of paying for his ignorance. If you spent as much time educating yourself as you do impressing everyone with your vulgar rants, you would know that.

In response to Carr's threat, Nextstar which owns dozens of ABC affiliate stations refused to air the kimmel show, thus undermining the show, it's ratings, etc, which promoted ABC to cancel it. Nextstar is currently in a merger deal worth billions upon FCC approval. Do you not see what's happening here? None of this would have happened if not for Carr's threat, which amounts to government intimidation and blackmail.

good for you

Wait I have more Bah Bha Bha bAH abha

 

[Frankeneinstein]

they will discover what happens when the worm turns...

We're witnessing it with you and the boy(s) from fight club...the tweedle brothers

 

[Dr. Phosphorous]

Just the facts, ma'am. Sorry you can't handle the truth.

MAGA **** will lick Trump's balls even after he takes ABC off the air.

What a Nazi *****.

 

[toobfreak]

It would be awesome if the FCC slapped Jimmy Kimmel and ABC with Federal violations. It's way past time that TDS ravaged Kimmel be called out for turning his late night "entertainment" show into his personal vendetta against Trump.

Wow, gee, I have not watched Kimmel in like 20 years, but if he went off shouting that this Tyler monster who assassinated Kirk Mafia execution style right in front of his little kids is shooting off that he was a MAGA supporter, that is so obvious bullshit that I can hardly argue anything the FCC might do.

Hit Kimmel with a 150 million dollar fine, hit ABC with a 500 million dollar fine, suspend ABC's license, hard to care. I mean, weren't these the same people who were totally fine in Trump getting fined demanding 500 million dollars in cash up front as a fine for a deal where a bank set the loan terms, Trump met the loan terms, Trump paid the agreed interest and the bank was happy with no victim, harm or foul?

So now I'm supposed to care if ABC and Kimmel get a handful of sand shoved in their mouths for their endless bloviated bullshit?

 

[Frankeneinstein]

The bouncing back and forth between S/N's is showing.

 

[odanny]

Chilling.

When the government threatens your broadcast license and your entire business for political reasons, than yes.

Please link to something that substantiates that false assertion.

Look to the court cases of the time and the FCC's actions and precedents. I'm not your tutor.

Please keep up with the thread. Been discussed. BTW, ABC/Nexstar is looking for the FCC to change the current law allowing over 40% of local stations to be owned by a single entity. Do you know what anti-trust is? Do you relish the idea of more than 40% of stations being owned by one group? Nothing to worry about there eh? Goebbels would be very proud of you. ABC is sucking up and hoping for preferential treatment like they would have gotten from your vegetable.
