Social Jimmy Kimmel gets Canceled

[Croaker]

FCC didn't fire him ABC did and Kimmel did it to himself by using his platform to offend half the country.

Seano, don't be an idiot, he can't even get half of his family to watch him, let alone a country.

Saying the killer was MAGA was a lie. We know the killer's motivation. There is no question. You're part of the problem if you keep trying to spin that.

He didn't say the killer was MAGA. He said MAGA was doing everything to say he wasn't. His problem was neglecting to both sides it, as everyone had a rage boner hoping it was the opposition.

 

[calavera2]

hm, minus all the hyperbole.
he's never been funny imo.
a late night show? please.
he was the hack on the Man Show, Corrola was the funny one.

This I can actually agree with...dude is not funny

 

[Confucamus]

That wasn't the question.

I really don't care.

 

[cottagecheesefan]

I don't care he mocked Trump, or tried to play games about something extremely tragic. That’s in poor taste but whatever..

The problem I have is this part right here:

"MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them."

That’s a calculated lie meant to mislead. It’s deliberate disinformation, and it’s disgusting. So yeah good riddance, get canceled you clown. Go cry somewhere else.

You see my post that I’m the Friday night time slot, they will be having a Charlie tribute. What a move. Just by the controversy, will draw attention and viewers. Well produced Charlie tribute, going to be amazing

And lol at dorks stating the FCC, etc. This is a company distancing themselves from someone spreading obvious misinformation, which will hurt their business.

Did any of you freaks complain when Fox fired Tucker? Retailers and advetisers canceled Mike Lindell? Or being sued for hundreds of millions of dollars, including even Rudy, or billions even like Alex Jones?

Cry about it and create your own alternative platforms and infrastructure.

SCOTUS has been very good on free speech grounds and not in the tank for Trump (definitely not first term, second term TBD)

I think it was a calculation. Is it worth the legal suit for a show they thought was on the decline/ not making profit. Still not good

Eh, i think any lawsuit/appeal/etc. will be overturned at the SC level in Trump's favor.

As a matter of first ammendment rights, Kimmel is able to sue the FCC over this. The fact that ABC/Disney didn't even try tells me where that would go.

 

[Rygu]

There’s no answer because they aren’t over sensitive pussies.

Yeah I mean could you imagine if a geographic was such pussies that they self harmed due to being misgendered? Or burned cities due to losing an election?

That would be crazy.

You’ve alluded to this before. I don’t think you know the court well. But all good.

MAGA didn't need to do anything to show the killer was a leftist. The facts of the case showed that. Anyways, if you have an issue with the reasoning behind this I suggest you look at the official statement released.

 

[Loiosh]

I really don't care.

Obviously.

If you let truth get in the way, you couldn't post about anything.

I just had to correct you for lying but okay.

 

[luckyshot]

Present your proof that is the reason why he got shit canned.

Read the article in the OP. The FCC goon is quoted saying ABC had a choice of "the easy way" (firing Kimmel) or the "hard way" (getting fucked by the FC).

You just said the shoe was "on the other foot now," so why are you suddenly playing queer?

 

[The Diplomat]

You’ve alluded to this before. I don’t think you know the court well. But all good.

I know that Trump personally picked three, while having a 6-3 ratio. Sure, they go against him every now and then, but if you think the court won't side with him in any major cases, we'll just agree to disagree.

I’m not advocating for Kimmel being cancelled at all but he could’ve made his joke without shoehorning “maga gang” and saying one of their own killed Kirk or whatever. It’d be like a host saying BLM should stop killing themselves in the streets of Chicago and white knighting drug addict felons before making a joke about Jussie Smollet or some shit. It clearly wouldn’t go over well lol.

 

[Takes Two To Tango]

The FCC, Brendan Carr and Trump did obvious coercion here to shut up Jimmy Kimmel. This is not cool.

That's actually an extremely classy move. Thankfully, it looks like they were actually watching what was going on throughout the country in regards to the vigils dedicated to Kirk. You're seeing thousands and thousands of people gather in so many cities across the country to celebrate Kirk's memory. America, by and large, is done with the divisiveness that led to Kirk's murder.

Misinformation. To cancel a 22 year comedy talk show over misinformation while the mainstream media is what it is, is asinine.

 

[My Spot]

Oh no!
Anyhow...

 

[koquerelle]

It should scare both parties. Will it? I doubt it.

Masterful breakdown that he nominated three justices and about the 6-3 split. You know far more about the courts than I expected.
