Keep defending censorship.I really hate to make assumptions about somebody I have never met, but I'm going to to guess that you never lived under authoritarian rule. So with all due respect, your opinion on comparing Trump to somebody like Mao, Xi, Putin, the Kims means absolutely...

If you read my post, I want strong opposition to whatever party is in power. As a matter of fact, when Biden said he would defend Taiwan on 3 separate occasions - I applauded that (even if he had no idea what he was saying.) When Pelosi visited Tibet and Taiwan, I applauded that. When I heard Pelosi visited Tiananmen Square in 1991, I admired that very much.
What happened to Jimmy Kimmel is not even close to censorship that occurs in China. Kimmel still had rights to freely to speak his mind while he was suspended. Again I will remind you.
Real censorship

I really don't know what you are trying to say here. I have a hunch you actually know more about business than is displayed in this post.And as for ad revenue... you show your lack of understanding of how decisions are made in major global corporations. Or that 'ad revenue' , especially short term blips is hardly the motivation of the execs and Boards who make thee decisions. Market share, views, and mostly share/stock prices are but a few of the big drivers.
I thought Disney is keeping Kimmel on the air because he is profitable. Probably profitable by my metric and also profitable by your abstract definition that requires an incredible imagination to understand.If they needed to assuage the audience they would have stuck to their decision and would have said so in their statement.
If you include youtube, then Kimmel is rocking it and the networks are going to be super happy.I really don't know what you are trying to say here. I have a hunch you actually know more about business than is displayed in this post.
Revenue in this case from advertising is greatly preeminent over all other drivers. Let's include YouTube revenue that is derived from advertising. As far as blips, ABC will likely assess where the Kimmel show is in terms of advertising revenue (not just ratings) vis-à-vis production costs after year-end. You know why I know this? Because this is what every American corporation does on an annual basis.
To be clear, I am not saying the Kimmel show will or should be cancelled. Some of the lefties hear have to stop defending anything or everything that has even a hint of challenging their idealistic view.
I think Kimmel will benefit from Colbert leaving the air. It's possible his show will become more political. I don't know if he can hold on to the audience that just wants to laugh and the part of the audience that wants to laugh but also wants straight-up political commentary at 11:30 pm.
Wyatt, just checking if you agree with Teddy? It's not a gotcha question, it's just trying to see if we are on the same page.I thought Disney is keeping Kimmel on the air because he is profitable.

Oh, but big bad Orange Man posted some mean things about our hero Jimmy Kimmel.That's all fine and dandy, but all the Lefties on Terb are trying to argue that Trump was behind the cancellation of Kimmel
But you support state censorship and trump using the FCC and threats to shut down criticism?Oh, but big bad Orange Man posted some mean things about our hero Jimmy Kimmel.
Yes, but I would take it further in a Rand Paul fashion. The FCC's regulatory relationship with public airwaves broadcasters is an outdated relic of the past. Most people watching Kimmel and ABC are watching it over private platforms.Wyatt, just checking if you agree with Teddy?

I know you two can read so here we goOh, but big bad Orange Man posted some mean things about our hero Jimmy Kimmel.
Fine, this is an acceptable answer. I will give you a B+Yes, but I would take it further in a Rand Paul fashion. The FCC's regulatory relationship with public airwaves broadcasters is an outdated relic of the past. Most people watching Kimmel and ABC are watching it over private platforms.
Again I don't want Kimmel taken off the air.
You guys need a show that allows you to share your political frustration at the end of a long, hard day.![]()
Again, Trump doesn't have the power to cancel Kimmel.I know you two can read so here we go

Was Trump involved in the suspension of Jimmy Kimmel? Here’s what he said
Donald Trump threatened ABC (again) after bringing Jimmy Kimmel back to the stage.www.yahoo.com

Kimmel pulls no punches as he sends defiant message to Trump
The US talk show host isn't backing down after being suspended; it seems to have hardened his resolve.www.bbc.com
Right from the horse's mouth
" "He tried his best to cancel me," Kimmel said. "Instead he forced millions of people to watch the show. That backfired bigly. He might have to release the Epstein files to distract us from this now."

Why is Jimmy Kimmel returning to ABC, what did his suspension cost Disney?
Kimmel’s show was suspended last week following his comments about Trump and MAGA responses to Charlie Kirk’s murder.www.aljazeera.com
Then, Federal Communications Commission (FCC) chairman Brendan Carr called for action against Kimmel, Disney and ABC, a move which has been criticised as “overreach” by the one Democrat on the FCC, Anna Gomez, and legal experts.
Voicing an opinion in Trump's case reveals thin skin, but he has taken it a step further. DO YOU NOT READ his own TrushBUllshit posts?Again, Trump doesn't have the power to cancel Kimmel.
Trump is legally allowed to put on as much pressure as he wants though.
If Trump thinks Kimmel's jokes are in poor taste regarding Charlie Kirk, then he can voice that opinion
No he cannot.Trump is legally allowed to put on as much pressure as he wants though.
Its still sad that MAGA is focused on Kimmel and Kirk while ignoring trump's decline and the decline of the american economy.Voicing an opinion in Trump's case reveals thin skin, but he has taken it a step further. DO YOU NOT READ his own TrushBUllshit posts?
1st amendment only gives citizens protection from the government so they are not imprisoned for free speech.No he cannot.
That would be a violation of the first amendment.
Trump didnt do anything illegal. He's entitled to his opinion that Kimmel should be firedVoicing an opinion in Trump's case reveals thin skin, but he has taken it a step further. DO YOU NOT READ his own TrushBUllshit posts?
Don't mention genocide when referring to Trump since your side didn't go out and vote for Kamala. You had a helping hand in giving BIBI everything he ever wanted.Its still sad that MAGA is focused on Kimmel and Kirk while ignoring trump's decline and the decline of the american economy.
trump won't fund schools, health care or americans but he'll send billions for genocide and now he's sending $20 billion to bail out Argentina's failed populist leader. A guy who did everything that trump is trying to do to america.
