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

Even lies are protected speech: New Trump indictment bulldozes the First Amendment​


Why the First Amendment protects liars​

How a tall tale from a California water official tested the Constitution’s limits.

Why (most) lies are protected speech, and why they should stay that way​

Even with our current climate of fake news, misinformation, disinformation, and election lies, we shouldn’t use government power to try enforcing the truth.



United States v. Alvarez​

LII note: The U.S Supreme Court has now decided United States v. Alvarez
Lies are not protected speech over FCC regulated airwaves. You went a long way to try and walk around the actual issue but failed

So, any network can't broadcast Heil Shitler! as he lies about 77% of the time,

Got it.

Nobody is saying Jimmy should be charged with a crime

It’s going to be very difficult for Dems to ever get a job on a network now that the Trump admin is enforcing the law

Does he know who pays his tariffs or not?

Is he lying when he claims that he has made trillions and trillions from his tariffs already?
 
I remember when Kimmel gloated about Tucker Carlson being fired.

I also remember Barack and Michelle Obama contacting Bob Iger to get Roseanne Barr fired.

Gina Carrano, anyone?
Gina sued Disney and won. Her post was nowhere near the tastelessness level compare with leftists celebrating this assassination.
 
No, but they are saying that the FCC should not be pressuring Nextar and Sinclair groups over a free speech issue, as these groups need their cooperation for their expansion plans.

No different than the Biden administration pressuring social media companies to ban or suspend users.
 
Holy shit dude, why are you even here postin? What in the world do you think the FCC does?

Here’s a hint, it enforces the communications act of 1934 and the telecommunications act of 1996

Stop being so stupid
What law covers jokes?

It’s not a free speech issue, the fcc enforces federal law and the law doesn’t allow broadcasters to distort the news https://www.fcc.gov/broadcast-news-distortion

Jimmy was lying to viewers and distorting the news to suggest a Republican killed Kirk

Now Jimmy is free to express his lies on his own time but not on a broadcast network

ABC realized their exposure not to mention the show was already costing therm a fortune and getting horrible ratings so they made a smart business decision

Not sure i know what you are trying to pretend to talk about

We are talking about the FCC and ABC


That’s not a joke
What specific law is the FCC using to try to silence its critics?

Would that law also apply say if a fox commentor claims that the government should kill homeless people?

It’s not using any law to silence its critics

If someone at Fox said that, what news was being distorted?
