Since Letterman and Conan left these guys have been awful. No one tunes in to hear your politics, you're supposed to be entertainment
Sooooo...should the consequence of them sucking just be they eventually fall victim their presumably lower ratings?
Sooooooo….. their ratings have been in decline for years and these shows are incredibly expensive to produce. This is why Colbert is out too
Are we really making believe that this decision was just a company decision based on ratings and not being blackmailed by the federal government?
Perhaps…. That said, point the finger over there, while the person at hand, is committing the act. Very typical of people with your ideology. Civ, you can do better…
Can you explain what exactly Kimmel said that was in any way more offensive than things that Trump and Vance and Mace and so many others have said in the last week?
Much more importantly, from a legal standpoint, can you explain what he said that deserved censoring?
There was nothing vulgar. Nothing profane. Nothing calling for violence. Nothing that even spoke ill of Charlie Kirk.
I'm not asking if you agree with what he said.
I'm not asking if you thought it was political.
I'm not asking if you thought it was funny.
I'm asking whether we can have our country's communication effectively being censored by the government simply because they don't like the content, in the absence of any reasonable and impartial determination that an indiscretion involved calls for violence, vulgarity, sexually explicit conduct, etc.?
