For outright lying about the murderer being MAGA. For those saying he is, you’re lying, too. Good riddance to the trash show. The View will be next.IP: Logged |

It was a stupid comment, but what else is new with Kimmel?? He is quite popular on the left and I think it's a mistake to cancel him because I don't believe in censorship like that. People like Kimmel will just fester underground... and I think it is better to know what they are thinking and saying... Let them be naturally cancelled through loss of popularity and their show becoming worthless. That is the best organic way to have these people go by the wayside. IP: Logged |

I respectfully disagree. He has been stoking fear and violence with his Nazi lies for a long time. If ABC/Disney feels that his lies hurts their brand, who are we to question it?IP: Logged |

It didn't hurt their brand. Their brand has news that regurgitate the same stoking of fear and violence with Nazi lies. IP: Logged |

I need to revise what I said. Jimmy Kimmel is NOT censored. He has NOT been deplatformed.We went through censorship and deplatforming during Covid when people were forbidden to have their brand on regular social media and they had to go underground. We have seen and we know what censorship is. That is not what is happening here. Jimmy Kimmel can go and start his own Youtube Channel or X channel or TikTok, or whatever, and continue to be Jimmy Kimmel, just like Tucker Carlson did after being fired from Fox. Nobody is stopping him from doing that, so it is NOT CENSHORSHIP! hough the left will claim it is. IP: Logged |

I appreciate your assessment. Ultimately, the network gets to decide. We definitely know what true censorship feels like. I won’t be crying any tears or losing any sleep over this decision. All I will say is oh, how the tide has turned. IP: Logged |

Yeah, I won't be crying for Kimmel losing his cushy $15 million a year salary.He can start his own brand venture and his fans can support him, the same way we support the broadcasters that we care about: With our pocketbook! IP: Logged |

Kimmel had two days to pull this back, but he couldn’t because the left can never admit when they’re wrong. I also just found out tonight that the FCC warned ABC that there would be action taken if they didn’t sanction Kimmel.IP: Logged |

Last week, Kimmel, a vocal critic of the Trump administration, advised his audience to respond with empathy in the aftermath of Kirk’s death. “Instead of the angry finger-pointing, can we just for one day agree that it is horrible and monstrous to shoot another human?” Kimmel wrote on Instagram on Sept. 10. “On behalf of my family, we send love to the Kirks and to all the children, parents, and innocents who fall victim to senseless gun violence.” http://archive.ph/r9Gu4#selection-2079.0-2083.169 IP: Logged |

“Indefinitely.” It couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy. For years, the left could say anything and be protected. He’s deserved this for a long time. So what? His employer fired him. That’s not fascism. Dozens of stations refused yobsit it first. That’s freedom of choice. It’s also called “accountability.” He got himself fired because he told one too many lies. He claimed the shooter was not a leftist. He was wrong. He should have known better. Guess we were right. I hope this will serve as a warning to the rest of them. Guess you will have to get your Nazi and other words brainwashing from some other source now.

Anyone claiming that Charlie Kirk was just exercising his freedom of speech, but is cheering on the silencing of everyone critical of the Trump administration, is a massive hypocrite. What Kimmel said wasn't even close to the hate that is regularly spewed by conservative podcast hosts and FOX. The Trump administration and anyone that supports them, is now openly embracing fascism. I hope you all will come to your senses because history shows this never ends well. You will have to live with that shame and embarrassment for the rest of your lives. South Korea will make the detaining of Hyundai personel a human's right issue. And rightfully so. ICE is an absolute disgrace, kidnapping people based on looks and language, and mistreating them in custody. Laughing that you haven't lost any rights and not caring about the treatment of other people, will come back to haunt you. Not only is it inhumane and deeply shameful, it has consequences. Expect karma to bite you in te a$$. IP: Logged |

Trump and his cronies are robbing you blind. This isn't even about Left vs Right. They're using hate as a distraction. You have criminals running your country and they only care about what they gain from it, while everyone else suffers. IP: Logged |

Karma only works one way in your eyes. You always conveniently keep your mouth shut unless you are criticizing the right. But your ignorance always shines through. Just like a good little foot soldier, you scream the word of the week. Fascism! You don’t even know what the word means. ICE is doing its job. The Supreme Court supports stops based on looks. If they are legal, they are no longer held. Status is not a race. A country with no borders is no country. South Korea will do just like Europe did. Where is all that European animosity you predicted anyway? Everything you predict is always wrong. You’re almost like a climate change computer model. Our country was invaded, and we are getting them out. It was immoral letting millions into our borders. Thousands died by coyotes, and children were trafficked. Not a peep from hypocrites like you. Screeching about morality. It must make you feel good when you delude yourself. You should move to America so you will know what true freedom feels like. You would fit in well with the rest of these leftist loonies. Kimmel spewed so much hate over the years. That was karma. Calling half the countries Nazis. You’re just fine with that. Once you use that word, you have lost the argument and lost all rational thought. You’re deranged. Get some professional help. America is doing better than ever before. We are on a sharp upward trajectory of prosperity. We are getting rid of the crime that Dems have allowed to infect our country for decades. Fascism! You’re ridiculous. What about the immorality of calling us Nazis? Dehumanizing us and making it easy for people like Robinson to rationalize assassinating Kirk. That is why Kimmel was fired. His rhetoric built up over years. We call that “the last straw.” But you kept your mouth shut when an entire political party was compared to people who killed 6 million Jews by Kimmel. Nothing FOX News has ever said is even remotely close to Kimmel comparing us to Nazis. That makes YOU the hypocrite. Everything you don’t like they is happening is karma for what the left has done to this country. MAGA! MAHA! IP: Logged |

This is the same guy responsible for this. Who was he defending? Who insulted Biden? And who didn’t get fired, because Biden wasn’t a dictator? IP: Logged |

NEWSFLASH: Calling people Nazis is not political satire! And the independent station owners pulled Kimmel's program first because "it didn't fit their community." Then ABC went ahead and pulled the entire show. IP: Logged |
