More cancel culture.

And a blatant First Amendment violation.

I imagine it was more that his ratings were bad, they needed someone else, it was an excuse. If he had high ratings I doubt it would have happened, just an apology.

He was free to say it.
And the network was free to fire him
His 1st Amendment rights weren't violated at all.

Did you read the article? The head of the FCC threatened action against ABC because of the comments. That's government suppression of speech.

Have you ever thought that people have been sick of your party and it’s bs for a long time leading to your election loss and the forward direction of the country. Could it be all of your own fault and you still can’t see it and you just keep on with it all.

No, I never thought that at all.

Because it is blatantly not true.

People is fine.

Government is not.

Why do you imagine the government can fix your problems?

"“These companies can find ways to change conduct and take actions on Kimmel,” said Carr, a Trump appointee, “or there’s going to be additional work for the FCC ahead.”

Carr is head of the FCC. How is this not a 1st Amendment violation?

The plot of course thickens; Nexstar, an owner of many ABC affiliated stations, was the first to pull Kimmel's show from their lineups. It also recently announced a $6.2 billion purchase of Tegna, Inc. that requires ............................................ FCC approval. https://www.forbes.com/sites/howardhomonoff/2025/08/20/nexstar-and-tegna-announce--merger-plan-what-to-look-for-next/

It’s blatantly a problem.
It’s even like Kimmel said anything so extreme that it was inexcusable.

Going down this road is extremism let loose. And the maga crowd seem to lap it all up.

First they came for the communists, and I did not speak up, for I am not a communist…

I have explained this to you and others here. Him and the other huge clown that was pulled had crap ratings not fully utilizing time slots to their full profit. Can you prove this was going to happen or are you repeating someone’s opinion. These two were extremely divisive and very political appealing only to one side.
