Kimmel advocated for Rosanne Barr to be fired and banned from TV, as well as supporting Trump being banned from social media.

2. Reminder, libs said "Freedom of speech is not freedom of reach. It's OK to limit reach"

Especially when outright misinformation (Kimmel) leads to gun violence (ABC station shooting).

3. Nexstar joins Sinclair to limit freedom of reach, for violent liar Kimmel.

You had it coming, libs.

Suck it good.

It shows, whole thing was only their publicity stunt.

But it doesn't quite work: Sinclair still blocks him.

& Kimmel fan who shot ABC station is stuck in jail. Stunt doesn't wok out for him either.

2. Idiot Conan Obrien, sure doesn't get it.

The suspension of @jimmykimmel
and the promise to silence other Late Night hosts for criticizing the administration should disturb everyone on the Right, Left, and Center. It’s wrong

But not even 1 / 1 000 000 000 as wrong as publicly executing Charlie Kirk.

Not 1 / 1 000 000 as wrong as years of bashing MAGA with fake news & obvious hoaxes.

Not 1 / 1 000 as wrong as those of you libs (Kimmel) who continue to lie about Kirk after his death, or who enjoy & lie about his murder.

@hubrys I'm smart enough to know that. Are u? No

Lib track record with these things is so awful, you can fuck off or you can gift FULL quotes IN CONTEXT. Uh huh.

your Dot Dot Dot technique classic hoax marker

Are you too stupid to know what ellipses are?

... whether the speaker is Charlie Kirk or Jimmy Kimmel....

They are not even slightly same.

Kimmel has his Freedom of Speech & can go home to his kids.

2. But Sinclair gets it right. They show tribute to Charlie, in place of Jimmy Kimmel

3. btw, Sinclair original statement 2 days ago, makes clear they decided things, ABC / Disney were followers.

https://x.com/WeAreSinclair/status/1968471160359645658

Sinclair decided to indefinitely preempt Jimmy Kimmel Live beginning tonight. Following these discussions, ABC suspended production of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”

@hubrys your Dot Dot Dot technique classic hoax marker

You libs sure did it to Charlie.

Tonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnns of dot dot dot technique.

Lib track record with these things is so awful, you can fuck off or you can deliver FULL quotes IN CONTEXT. Uh huh.

"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." - Theodore Roosevelt

swing & miss, something I don't know of & don't care

Clearly you've never seen or read V for Vendetta. That's a shame; you might have learned something.

But they murdered Charlie Kirk & celebrated it widely, because Charlie Kirk was very truthful.

@hubrys swing & miss, something I don't know of & don't care

Nexstar & Sinclair owner networks determined that their viewers wouldn't watch Kimmel anymore - they dropped Kimmel first, Disney & ABC followed - market forces.

USA broadcast licensees always have obligation to serve their communities honestly & end of "Fairness Doctrine" did not end that, is not what I was talking about.

Disney & ABC centrally imposing KimmelLies & KimmelKrap on their affiliate licensed local broadcasters is not licensees serving their communities honestly.

Trump merely cajoles & allows the system to work as it was always meant to, where local licensees take their obligations seriously & object to public lies & harms imposed on them centrally. Local licensees come back to life, after years of central dictatorship that gave lying, toxic results.

https://x.com/i/status/1968786097900544394

broadcast licensees like ABC are required legally to be strictly even-handed & factual, different from cable networks.

The Fairness Doctrine was abolished in the United States in 1987 under Reagan. The FCC exercises certain speech restraints on over-the-air broadcasters, but those are confined to specific topics, which usually have been identified by Congress through legislation or adopted by the FCC through full notice-and-comment pursuant to the Administrative Procedures Act (e.g., indecency, obscenity, commercial content in children's programming, conduct of on-air contests/game shows, or the Emergency Alert System).

The FCC doesn't have carte blanche power to enforce fairness or even-handedness. The FCC does not have the power to force broadcasters not to criticize the presidential administration.

The FCC Chairman said on the podcast:

“We can do this the easy way or the hard way. These companies can find ways to take action on Kimmel or there is going to be additional work for the FCC ahead.”

And make no mistake, he was threatening to use his power to punish broadcasters with whom he disagrees. He made sure to clarify his threat on the Sean Hannity Show, where he further explained:

"Over the years, the FCC walked away from enforcing [the] public interest obligation. I don’t think we’re better off as a country for it.... They [meaning late night hosts] went from going for applause, from laugh lines to applause lines. They went from being court jesters that would make fun of everybody in power to being court clerics and enforcing a very narrow political ideology...."

FCC Chairman Carr called the late night hosts a "narrow, partisan circus," and said that the FCC was currently working to reinvigorate enforcement of the "public interest obligation" of broadcasters.

You're delusional and living in fantasyland if you think the decision was based on ratings. I mean, Sinclair Broadcasting Group, owner of ABC affiliates, literally told Kimmel in Sinclair's official press release to make a "direct apology" for the comments and demanded he make a donation to both Kirk's family and to Kirk's Turning Point USA. You cannot pretend that the actions were because of rating. They were a reaction to the comments and the backlash from the FCC and Trump.

Given broadcasters intensive lying over these many years: If FCC / Carr are involved: It's looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong overdue.

Roseanne's cancelling wasn't perpetrated by the Administration

& neither was Jimmy's.

ABC already planned to shitcan him. Then, in response to some consumer & affiliate pressure, they moved it up.

Roseanne's cancelling, which was just a business decision

& so was Jimmy's. Again: ABC already meant to.

You've added hot air, except really nothing to show it was anything but ABC doing business calculations, that is, "A BUSINESS DECISION".

I don't think Trump and his followers are lovers of Fascism

you mean - You'll let them live???????? you don't need to murder them after all??????

How generous

No one who melts down over Jimmy Kimmel today, lifted finger to defend Roseanne.

Roseanne's cancelling wasn't perpetrated by the Administration (which was Trump's first administration) using threats from the Chairman of the FCC to the licenses of both ABC and the affiliate stations broadcasting ABC. The FCC Chairman, Brendan Carr, made the public threats to Disney, ABC, and affiliates on the Scott Jennings radio show.

Trump's current FCC chair is using threats to cajole the networks into censoring opponents of the current administration. Disney (owner of ABC) has its ESPN poised to purchase the NFL Network, which will require approval by the FCC. And the largest network affiliate carrying ABC, which is Nexstar, is currently bidding to purchase its rival Tegna. That merger will also require FCC approval.

So, it's not surprising that neither of those corporations want to piss off the FCC chairman. Unlike Roseanne's cancelling, which was just a business decision based on public outrage at Roseanne's racist tweets, here we have a government agent as the cause of the cancellation. That's government censorship, which the First Amendment is supposed to protect against.

And Trump's not ignorant of the power his lapdog at the FCC has, since he just today said that the FCC should pull the licenses of any licensee who broadcasts media critical of Trump. He's already tweeting that he'd like Jimmy Fallon and Seth Meyers gone as well. FCC Chair Carr has already said he's going to look into how he can take down The View, potentially claiming that it isn't a news show and/or has violated some form of the Equal Time doctrine.

I don't think Trump and his followers are lovers of Fascism. I don't think they'd wear that on the lapel. But they sure to love using the trappings and methods of fascist governments.
