    Trump looked like a fool, Kimmel called it out, and his administration

    Wow. The utter cluelessness of that statement is astounding. Can you even think for yourself, or are you just another bot who gets programmed by his TV every day?

    We have piles of video evidence of the Left using inflammatory rhetoric, but we seem to only have evidence of everyone else just saying the truth.

    Oh, but that's right. Ignorant like you don't even know the meanings of the labels you want to slap on people to shut them up (which doesn't work anymore, BTW). And you seem to think that telling the truth is "hate speech".

    Trump ordered the FCC to intimidate ABC, ABC
    probably wanted to get rid of their late night show anyways, and saw a patsy.

    I know this will break your precious Narrative, but that didn't happen.

    But we all know how you ignorant Leftists like to make stuff up to further your false Narrative.

    The facts are:
    1. Kimmel broke FCC rules.
    2. The ratings for Kimmel's show is tanking and has been for some time now.
    3. The LOCAL AFFILIATES dropped Kimmel's show because of what he said.

    Disney, who's finances are hurting because of THEIR Wokeness, probably wanted to difuse this mess as quickly as possible.

    And they already announced the Kimmel's show is coming back. The most of the local affiliates won't broadcast it. How low can a show's ratings go before the parent company kills it?

    Except, this time, Disney wasn't counting on a mass exodus of
    subscribers and Jimmy Kimmel has 3 more years on his contract. Rumor
    has it he's already talking to attorneys.

    Guessing: since Kimmel broke FCC rules, Disney probably has some good legal ground break the contract.

    "We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it."

    Which was proven false long before his show aired. Of course, for mindless bots programmed by your TV, like you, you'd never know this.

    He pushed propaganda and blatently lied, breaking FCC rules.

    Apparently you certainly don't care about accuracy, as you stopped your
    quoting right before where he called Trump a d!ck, which was the
    potentially offensive bit I called him out for. If I google "Kimmel
    dictator dick," the first article that comes up is from the Guardian.

    Their quote, unlike yours, includes that part.

    He also insinuated that the kid might be MAGA -- that MAGA needed to desparately distance themselves from -- which turned out not to be the
    case. Claiming that didn't really make sense.

    Trump looked like a fool, Kimmel called it out, and his administration
    is continuing to push a dangerous narrative that "liberal violence and
    hate" is the enemy.

    All violence and hate is an enemy. I have no issues with someone pointing
    out that this includes leftist violence as, guess what, that exists but a
    lot of people like to ignore it. In this particular case, a kid hated Kirk because of his right-wing views and acted on it. In this case, and a few
    other recent ones, leftist violence and hate had everything to do with it.

    We *do* need to get away from the necessity to label stuff "right" or
    "left" as a lot of what is developing defies political definition. IMHO, it would be better defined as apolitical -- and sociopathic.

    Trump ordered the FCC to intimidate ABC, ABC
    probably wanted to get rid of their late night show anyways, and saw a
    patsy.

    I agree they are probably looking to get rid of their late night show. Now they still have their patsy when the time comes.

    No, but it is the reason the show got yanked. The local affiliates can't get anyone to advertise in that slot because of the low ratings.

    he's dishing out stuff that most people want so i'm not sure how he can continue on making shows.

    It could be because someone ran the numbers and looked at the contract and decided that it would be cheaper to have him continue, but have very few local affiliates to broadcast the show.

    Kimmel is not directly answerable, but the network and the affiliates that carry the content are.

    From the FCC website:

    "The FCC does impose certain restraints and obligations on broadcasters. Speech regulations are confined to specific topics, which usually have been identified by Congress through legislation or adopted by the FCC through full notice-and-comment rulemaking or adjudicatory proceedings. These topics include: indecency, obscenity, sponsorship identification, conduct of on-air contests, hoaxes, commercial content in children's TV programming, broadcast news distortion, accessibility to emergency information on television, and inappropriate use of Emergency Alert System warning tones for entertainment or other non-emergency purposes."

    From past news stories, I do know that the FCC does levy fines against broadcasters for at least the first two topics listed.

    Apparently you certainly don't care about accuracy, as you stopped your quoting right before where he called Trump a d!ck, which was the potentially offensive bit I called him out for. If I google "Kimmel dictator dick," the first article that comes up is from the Guardian.

    Which has nothing to do with Charlie Kirk.

    My whole point was that language is something your station/network can get
    in trouble with the FCC for. So you have someone that decided that
    bringing up a touchy subject... a death no less... and trying to use it to
    get laughs (or whatever Kimmel thought it would do) which generates a bunch
    of phone calls and negative press.

    He also worked in... same show, different recent show, doesn't matter... what many would consider an obscenity, which could be an FCC liability and, since his ratings are not good, he has given you your out.

    I am not a Kirk fan but I am also not stupid enough to try to work his
    recent death into any conversation where I plan to cast said death, or
    those who were fans of Kirk, into any negative light unless I was looking
    to get fired. What kind of moron does do that?

    I don't find Kimmel offensive so much as I find him a crass, stupid person
    that apparently some equally crass, stupid people find "clever." I only
    know about what he did because there are people here, and on social media,
    who keep track of him. The latter group seems made up mostly of people who
    who look to him as a "thought leader," which is as ill-advised as looking
    to Kirk as one.

    As joe rogan said, kimmel has a 'go fuck yourself' style.

    is he really telling jokes or just manipulating people?
    I'd like to know what trump really did to kimmel. they must have met in person and trump must have got his goat and kimmel has been working so hard all these years to get his confidence or sense of face back.

    If people think kimmel is funny or entertaining i think the only reasoning is they just want to hear bad things about trump all the time.

    personally i dont want to hear about trump all the time. i had a liberal gf with severe tds and she would just talk randomly in the car about how he was
    a rapist, etc etc. trump was in her brain all the time. i dont like to have shit running around unresolved in my head and i don't know how people can
    live that way. yet, there are many many people who do live that way.

    There's seriously some type of new mental illness where it's political
    belief derangement. Furthermore most of these people do not understand how politics work or how the different branches of our govt operate.

    Well, I don't often find him funny any more, so...

    Honestly, I am not sure I ever found him by himself funny, although some of
    his interactions with guests are. I find Fallon to be funnier, but don't intentionally watch either of them.

    I'd like to know what trump really did to kimmel. they must have met in person and trump must have got his goat and kimmel has been working so hard all these years to get his confidence or sense of face back.

    I think it is more simple than that. Kimmel said some things Trump did not like and then Trump started talking about him all the time, so Kimmel knows
    he has Trump's attention. I also suspect that Kimmel does a lot of it in
    hopes of drawing more (left) eyes to his show... he could use the ratings boost.

    If people think kimmel is funny or entertaining i think the only reasoning is they just want to hear bad things about trump all the time.

    Based on social media commentary/posts, I would have to agree that many
    sure do.

    There's seriously some type of new mental illness where it's political
    belief derangement. Furthermore most of these people do not understand how politics work or how the different branches of our govt operate.

    There seem to be a lot of my more left-leaning friends who can tell me all about what Trump has said or done today than most of the rabid MAGAs I
    know. By the same token, the rabid MAGAs kept track of Biden's doings a
    lot more than any one else did, and I suspect it was the "future MAGAs" who were always telling us what Obama was up to.

    It has been going on for a while but continues to get worse.

    I suppose the republicans are woke and supporting cancel culture now
    that it fits their goals.


    It had to happen.

    I mean, at some point you realize all the magazines in the Submission Grinder are going to sabotage your submissions if your persona does not fall within their aproved political model. You are going to realize you cannot take part in online communities because some politicla view you expressed elsewhere does not suit some head honcho within that community.

    You are going to realize there is a full blown war going on in the shadows whose objective is to have you isolated and destroyed.

    So yeah at some point you are going to fight back because you are going to realize you will be a gonner if you don't show you have teeth.

    It sucks, but you invented this shit. Now, own it.

    i dont think these people that talk about trump really think. the more you talk about trump, good or bad the better it is for trump. to ignore him
    would take away most of his super trump powers. he's like some mystical
    deity. the more you talk about him the bigger he gets.

    with biden it was obvious that he was president autopen.
    He was a sick old man and he was not fit to be president. Everyone with a brain knows it. i dont think with biden there was the type of derangement that you see with trump.

    i always referred to biden's office as an example of elderly abuse. they let him go out there and embarass himself when in the past he was one of the sharpest loose cannons. He brutalized Paul Ryan in a debate before his
    health took a downturn.

    right now they are claming he's spending hours with a ghost writer writing
    his memoirs.

    "He holes up for hours at a time in Delaware working on his memoir with a new ghostwriter, while undergoing treatment for an aggressive form of prostate cancer. " HE ISN'T. the man is gold and sick. he probably lays in bed all day and night.

    it takes years to get to stage 4 prostate cancer scale 9. he was taking bloodtests for years and other tests. what the hell was going on?

    liberals in the usa are largely morons. even the smart ones don't want to think. they dont realize that since trump lost that dude was on the road campaigning and making sure his enemies were not getting voted in.

    the funny thing is they cancled him on social media and everything so not
    only were the news stations not making money by reporting on everything about trump, they couldnt actively track what he was doing so easily.

    Trump has a long cancel list, a lot of them republicans who he dealt with. liz cheney was on the top of the list. also several of them retired under pressure. that's his own party.

    So yeah at some point you are going to fight back because you are
    going to realize you will be a gonner if you don't show you have
    teeth.

    It sucks, but you invented this shit. Now, own it.

    every action has an equal and opposite reaction. cancel culture cuts both ways. yes kimmel is back, his ratings will still suck. it's all a big game at this point.

    The reason for that is the more the Left talks, the most their hypocricy and anti-American views come out.

    There's a meme called "Operation: Let Them Speak" which is just getting the Left to publically admit, on video, what they stand for - which is everything unamerican.

    Come 2026, anyone running against a Democrat need only show the video of said Democrat speaking as his campaign commercial.

    with biden it was obvious that he was president autopen.
    He was a sick old man and he was not fit to be president.

    I think that there's a good case for NO Democrat to be President today.
    They don't have to be old and feeble-minded to be unfit to be President.

    Everyone
    with a brain knows it. i dont think with biden there was the type of derangement that you see with trump.

    There was the opposite with Biden. "Biden Organization Syndrome"

    i always referred to biden's office as an example of elderly abuse.

    It certainly was sad to see that. No snarky comment here. Elder abuse is bad no matter who it's being done to.

    they let him go out there and embarass himself when in the past he was
    one of the sharpest loose cannons.

    The only difference is that back then, Biden **knew** he was lying.

    That is true but, if posts on social media can be trusted, there are a lot
    of never-Trump folks out there who will get upset if their talking heads
    don't tell them something bad about Trump every day.

    it takes years to get to stage 4 prostate cancer scale 9. he was taking bloodtests for years and other tests. what the hell was going on?

    Considering that he was President for 4 years, you would think someone
    would have been checking his PSA levels at least.

    He was implying it.

    From what I read on the FCC site, and posted here, it could be an issue if
    he were considered a newscaster. Since he is an entertainer, that
    monologue probably didn't violate any "no misleading news" clause.

    OTOH, so many idiots look to entertainers for their daily news it blurs the lines quite a bit.
