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

The year 2020 can prove you wrong by itself.

You’re not intelligent enough to provide an actual response.

This isn’t turnabout. No administration was threatening TV stations for exercising free speech.

Fox News reporter secretly monitored by Obama administration: court documents

Agents monitored James Rosen's movements in and out of the State Department, searched his personal emails and cell phone records

Obama got warrants and surveillance against s reporter he didn’t like

 

[TemplarKormac]

Feel free to prove me wrong.

Furthermore, ABC did it of its own accord. The FCC simply reminded them that making purposefully false statements about pending criminal litigation is a violation of the terms of ABCs FCC license.

None of that is true.

There was no purposefully false statement.

It’s not a violation of the license.

They were threatened by an authoritarian government.

Threatened of what? If nothing Jimmy did put them in any sort of legal jeopardy then what was the threat?

Nobody is fabricating anything.

But denial in the face of superior evidence is nothing but a fear response.

Did the government put pressure on the companies in these examples?

Nope, not a clue.

This is the problem with you cultists, you're totally ignorant of everything outside your tiny bubble.

You sure are. You’re fabricating a “knowingly false statement” and you’re fabricating a violation of the “broadcast license”.

Wrong, Jimmy said a mega Republican killed Kirk…we know that’s false…and yes news distortion can cost ABC their license

The fact that the Regime felt it necessary to use a gross hyperbole to mischaracterize Kimmel's critic of the Regimes actions in using the assassination to score political points is not just a coincidence. It ginned up a lot of Fauxrage at Jimmy.

Saying Tyler Robinson was MAGA is a bold face lie, it is not an "opinion". That lie needs to be corrected.

I believe it likely that Benedict Donald did apply pressure to the owners and they capitulated. When Democrats take back Congress I believe they will investigate the matter.

What happened is that the ABC affiliates Nexstar and Sinclair were outraged by Kimmel's lie and told ABC that they would not broadcast Kimmel going forward. Trump had nothing to do with it. ABC's owner is Disney, did Bob Eiger say he was pressured to cancel Kimmel? If Eiger wanted to keep Kimmel and take it to court he would win, courts always rule against the government in 1st Amendment cases. It was a business decision prompted by the affiliates, Kimmel needs to remember the old "know your audience" rule.

I’m still praying

For deep state government media censorship.

Not the rule. His audience love him. Know your owners.

His in-person urban audience may have, but not the audience in the est of the country.
Nexstar and Sinclair weren't owners, they were affiliates.
Owners need to pay the bills.
