The right cancels Kimmel

She has nice everything. The show is actually a remake of a French show. I watched the first episode of the French version and the pilot's plot was identical to the ABC version. I forget what platform the French original show is running on - it might be Hulu as well.
My wife in in Paris right now. What is the name of the French show.
 
True that. With Kimmel they were going to lose money once the affiliates started dropping the show. Though I think they could have turned that around with Kimmel correcting the record. I'm not sure why salting the fields was where they took this. Maybe they wanted to change Late <hate> Night TV for some time but had contracts that made it impossible without a reason. :dunno:
Or they did not want the FCC to retaliate by preventing an upcoming merger that must be approved. Bribery.

Did anyone try to cancel the Fox News show when its host said we should kill homeless people?
 
In all fairness, Kimmel was funny once. But that was back when he used to get women to show their tits on "the Man Show."

And it was actually Adam Carolla who was funny - but Kibbles & Bits was there...
He put a cucumber in his pants and got women to grope it. Now he claims the moral high ground. He is a low talent guy that will say anything that will say anything he can get paid to say.
 
Kimmel said the right wanted the killer to be anyone but who he is….

They literally canceled him for that!
That was not what Kimmel said. Kimmel continued the gaslighting and tried to paint the killer as a right winger, said the right wing was "desperately trying to claim it wasn't one of them"... He surrounds himself with an echo chamber so deep he didn't even know that there was more information, that the kid was no right winger, though his family is, and lived with his trans woman lover, which provided his motive. Instead Kimmel gaslit his audience.

ABC cancelled him because affiliates were dropping the show. Instead of any number of options the corporation chose to burn the fields and salt the earth. If you are upset that he was cancelled, you need to talk to ABC. Tell them to have some balls maybe, act in your interest. Get them to understand that their best interest lies with pleasing Jarod rather than telling the truth.

Ok, you can believe that, but it was not appropriate for the government to pressure them. You know that.

Were you upset when a corporation took aunt jemima off their syrup bottles? The government didn't even threaten them to for that.
 
Indeed.

You have done your due diligence and allow the chips to fall where they may.

I have to explain issues to the receptionist in the morning and then again in the afternoon. His memory has gone bye bye.

These losers on the left know they have lost and are now just whining.

It’s delightful to see them acting like little children.
It is fun isn't it, lol. They are losing all of their safe spaces. Sooner or later, they'll have to face reality or truly go insane. I say, start building mental hospitals now.

Not just a lie but a retarded lie. The shit stain was cancelled because local affiliates were complaining and were not going to air his program. People are sick of your fuckig bullshit asshole.

public airwaves are limited. it isn't a free market. we have 4 - and if they continue to choose to be a mouthpiece for one political party, we should go hard after them

That is when the "licensed broadcasters" started saying they would not run the show.
 
There is such a "oh, good - we're all MAGA now!" vibe going on.

People are talking like they want one party rule, and all national voices to only reflect the MAGA agenda.

Charlie Kirk wanted dialogue. Are people forgetting that?
Kimmel seems to have forgotten. He like most leftists I run into either can't or won't accept their rol in the current state of affairs.

Kimmel is gone because the affiliates have had enough. People are sick of the constant complaining by the left. For 10 years it's been nothing but incessant whining.

Yup...

Just as I said, Kimmel: “desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them"

Gaslighting. Lying.

Yes that is what he said... how is what he said relevant to the FCC chair threatening the licensed stations, who responded by telling the network they would not air the show.

Hum, seems like the Government censoring the Network.
 
At this point you are just being deliberately obtuse. You have no moral high ground, you know it, and you do what you think ABC should have done, double down.

I get your disappointment, you however aim at what you see as a target of opportunity. I would question why you want the media to continue to lie, but I already know the answer.
To be clear are you saying you think if a personality, comedian or other, on air is thought to have lied then using the full force of the FTC to threaten to shut the network or their distributors down is a good and proper thing to do?


I do not think it is good and proper and think it violates free speech but at the same time i am all for this standard being set as I could see no way for society to deal with this growing magat media ecosystem but this new tool and power will allow the next Dem governments to gut it. So for that reason i am very happy with this new established standard.
 
Brendon Carr, the FCC Commissioner, said that in the past, the FCC had operated in the best interests of the public.

With Kimmel lying about the “right wing killer,” he reminded ABC that they were not operating in the public’s best interest.

The FCC responded appropriately and Kimmel is no longer on TV lying about the “right wing” shooter.

Government being effective and operating in the best interests of the public, what a novel idea.
 
I promise this - if Al Sharpton is ever shot by a white supremist - and media people desperately try to paint the narrative that he was shot by a black guy - I will move heaven and earth to have them removed as a mouth piece in America.

Hum, seems like the Government censoring the Network.
It seems like the network chose to self censor. The government took no action, Carr spoke on a podcast about a vague future and the corporation decided that it was best to salt the fields rather than continue to gaslight, there there were literally infinite possibilities and they chose this one. Nobody in the government told them to cancel him, nobody was arrested, nobody at all told them to do what they did, they did this on their own decision.

If you do not like the choice they made, talk to ABC.
