Topic: Jimmy Kimmel Canceled
Meta started this discussion 4 months ago #129,135
https://www.nytimes.com/2025/09/17/business/media/abc-jimmy-kimmel.htmlABC announced on Wednesday evening that it was pulling Jimmy Kimmel’s late night show “indefinitely” after criticism of comments he made on Monday about the motives of the man who is accused of fatally shooting the conservative activist Charlie Kirk last week.
Brendan Carr, the Federal Communications Commission chair, sharply criticized Mr. Kimmel’s comments on a podcast earlier on Wednesday.
Nexstar, an owner of many local stations throughout the United States, said shortly before ABC’s announcement that it was pre-empting episodes of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” for the “foreseeable future.”
Charlie Kirk Shooting
“Nexstar strongly objects to recent comments made by Mr. Kimmel concerning the killing of Charlie Kirk and will replace the show with other programming in its ABC-affiliated markets,” the company said.

> Hours earlier, FCC Chair Brendan Carr told conservative podcaster Benny Johnson that Kimmel’s comments were “truly sick,” and that there was a “strong case” for action against ABC and Disney.
> “This is a very, very serious issue right now for Disney. We can do this the easy way or the hard way,” Carr said. “These companies can find ways to take action on Kimmel or there is going to be additional work for the FCC ahead.”
I cannot legally say what I think should happen to these people so I will just say that this is flagrantly unconstitutional and also very stupid.

I think there's enough evidence now that he's not a MAGA. Why would a Trump supporter would want to take out one of Donald Trump's personal friends who Trump said was responsible for his 2024 election win??? It makes no sense at all.

The point is he's telling millions of people that the right-wing did it, which will get repeated mindlessly by that audience.
It's not about being too macabre or mean, it's disinformation that shifts blame for a terrorist attack.
This pushes war even more rapidly, and no one should want that. The right won't see people being killed for speech, then misattributed to themselves, and just shrug it off.
It also empowers the left to be violent, knowing the mass media will absolve them of responsibility, making violence more attractive.

The GOP has tried to reduce the FCCs power in the past, it's the Democrats who fought to maintain that.
What do you think it would mean for ABC to lose FCC approval? No one watches broadcast TV anymore. This isn't a real power the government has any longer, everyone could watch Kimmel on whatever streaming app, on any device now.
The company fired him because he's intentionally lying about a terrorist act. Private companies have that right.

These lines don’t hold. The left championed Woke cancel bullshit and the right has become autocratic, not libertarian, and wants to silence its perceived enemies (including fact checkers).

It's called the FCC not the FTV. It regulates all forms of communication including the internet. Even if that weren't true, you still obviously are conceding that conservatives are fine with censoring protected speech, which again proves my point that you are just regurgitating propaganda with no critical thinking.
> The company fired him because he's intentionally lying about a terrorist act. Private companies have that right.
They absolutely do, and had the U.S. Federal Government not threatened the parent networks, you could still parrot that stupid talking point about how conservatives are true principled free speech warriors or whatever that you'd have to be brainwashed to believe. Unfortunately because the government is run by stupid fucking criminal morons they couldn't help themselves and had to violate the law as usual.
> The GOP has tried to reduce the FCCs power in the past, it's the Democrats who fought to maintain that.
Non-sequitur.
> What do you think it would mean for ABC to lose FCC approval? No one watches broadcast TV anymore. This isn't a real power the government has any longer, everyone could watch Kimmel on whatever streaming app, on any device now.
It's called the FCC not the FTV. It regulates all forms of communication including the internet. Even if that weren't true, you still obviously are conceding that conservatives are fine with censoring protected speech, which again proves my point that you are just regurgitating propaganda with no critical thinking.
> The company fired him because he's intentionally lying about a terrorist act. Private companies have that right.
They absolutely do, and had the U.S. Federal Government not threatened the parent networks, you could still parrot that stupid talking point about how conservatives are true principled free speech warriors or whatever that you'd have to be brainwashed to believe. Unfortunately because the government is run by stupid fucking criminal morons they couldn't help themselves and had to violate the law as usual.

For the past decade or so, that was definitely true and now it is less true. I don't think either side is really principled on it.

IF you believe our president is a King and can do anything he wants to do with no limits...Then the US Constitution for him, is not a viable document.
So NO, Free speech and freedom of expression is off the books for now.

The FCC didn't force ABC to do anything, because the FCC can't regulate ABC with their current powers.
A broadcast licence is a formality that lingers from the days when people watched TV over antennas.
ABC fired him for brazenly lying about a terrorist attack.

He said to multiple family members that Charlie Kirk was spreading hate. He lived with, and dated, a transwoman.
There's no evidence he was MAGA. He came from a conservative family, but many leftists and antifa will complain about their conservative parents.

I for one, I don’t agree or disagree with anything Charlie Kirk said or anything any of his opponents said either. But I’m a Christian, and as a Christian God wanted us to love everyone. God wanted us to talk to the Harvey Weinstein and Diddies and Hitlers of the world. That’s how we built a better tomorrow, through dialogue. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

Republicans as Democrats and Independents and Green etc Do NOT march in lock step on every issue.
Kirk was totally Anti LGBtqxyx and the Killer was living with a Man whose Anus was turned into a make-believe Vagina packed with feces.
For example, George Santos (now surrounded with only men behind bars) George was of course a Right-Wing Republican, and crooked as can be as well as an open to the world FAGGOT.
Charlie was proud to be called a racist -"Charlie Kirk, White Supremacist, Dead at 31"

This topic got me to skim more about Kirk - Kirk gets credit for shit like this..
Kirk promoted the false claim that Haitians in Springfield, Ohio, were eating residents' pets and other wildlife
First on LateNighter: The Late Show with Stephen Colbert once again took the top spot at 11:35 p.m. among total viewers in November, while Jimmy Kimmel Live! held onto first place in the advertiser-coveted 18–49 demographic.
Monthly Ratings: Another Split Decision for Colbert and Kimmel in November 2025
According to Nielsen Live+7 ratings data, both shows made modest 1% monthly gains among total viewers, with Colbert netting an average nightly audience of 2.7 million versus Kimmel at 2.4 million. In the advertiser-covered 18–49 demo, Kimmel outpaced Colbert, growing 8% month-over-month to 294,000 viewers, while Colbert declined by 5% to 218,000.
The Kirk Fiasco BOOSTED Kimmel's Ratings by a BUNCH
Amazed at what Wiki Says about Kirk - Right Wing as all fuck and mostly Racist but an Ideal Mate for Trump.
