I will say, this is snowflake behavior from them. Jimmy could’ve just issued an apology, not gotten canned. Provocative and irreverent late night tv is an American pastime
If found Trump admin put pressure on networks even before all this, we are in a gray constitutional area…
Hate Kimmel all you want, I’d rather live in a society of top to bottom free speech.

I had seen something about Colbert losing tons of money for the network.
My suspicion is that these have more to do with financial performance amid declining ratings than catering to MAGA.
What did he say to get canned?
He wouldnt apoligize. They are running a memorial to charlie in his time slot.
Nah you wrong.
Freedom of speech is not freedom from consequences. Never was = one can't trash his employer on social media and not expect to be fired.
The right was rightly unhappy to be cancelled over having to abide by the ever shifting standards of people they didnt agree with.
If you stand for the left on this issue you're saying you wanna live in a society where political violence is celebrated against the right.
If that's the case just say it. If you truly believe that, just say "I believe in antony gramsci tactics and I wanna destroy common sense".
Let's be clear, the complaints about cancel culture was always projection.
This is the most insane boost to popularity this guy could have gotten. Just a couple days ago, no one exept a couple boomers who still watch tv knew who this guy is.
Today is is on the frontpage of news outlets, accross all of social media and everyone talkes about how the fascist Trump regime starts to censor critics.
Even if this wasn't a calculated move, it willl absolutely increase the reach of this guy and not silence him
