Every news network in the Free World must be taking great delight in >repeating the exact words that Jimmy Kimmel uttered on his TV show,
that got the Trump faction to force his network to sack him.
Here we have NZ and the UK reporting on same ><https://www.stuff.co.nz/world-news/360827879/what-jimmy-kimmel-said-about-charlie-kirk-got-him-taken-air>
<https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c203n52x1y9o>.
To normal people, that is just freedom of speech. But in the USA, it
appears, that concept no longer exists.

"-oWe hit some new lows over the weekend, with the MAGA gang
desperately trying to characterise this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk
as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to
score political points from it,-o he said in a monologue."
If that's all he said, I don't see the problem. Sure, it's a lie, but
so what? Free speech doesn't include lying anymore?

Anyway, the capper was the clip of Trump being asked how he was
holding up in the last day-and-a-half (after Kirk's death). He
said okay, and immediately pivoted to the building of his White
House ballroom. He doesn't *really* care about Kirk.

That Kirk's killer was MAGA.
His family was Republican but Robinson
himself was noted by family members as rebellious and was known to be
dating a trans.
On this point the left is starting to sound like the rightists blaming Democrats for the KKK.

Exactly. Trump must be the center of attention. So what if he had to
ride a martyr's ass onto the stage?

We re-elected a preening, narcissistic, grievance-soaked, vengeful
tabloid tallywhacker, and the Supreme Court removed all
constraints from him.

Imagine going after a talk show plus comedic opening monologue, in

in the FCC's purview, in the service of a lawless and incompetent
President.

Nexstar made the decision to drop Kimmel before Carr suggested anyone

Nexstar made the decision to drop Kimmel before Carr suggested anyone
should find ways to "take action" on Kimmel.
That's a lie, fascist filth.
Nexstar, the nationAs largest station owner, denied on Thursday that it
pulled oJimmy Kimmel Live!o off the air due to pressure from FCC Chairman
Brendan Carr.
The company announced the decision hours after Carr threatened to take action
against ABC affiliates over KimmelAs comments about Charlie KirkAs killer.
Carr also urged affiliates to preempt the show.
Asked whether NexstarAs decision was in any way influenced by CarrAs remarks,
Gary Weitman, the companyAs chief communications officer, said oNo.o

Nonsense. Insuring that the broadcasts are in the public interest is
well within FCC's purview. Telling an outright lie is not in the
public's interest. Had Kimmel or ABC appologised and corrected it
might have gone away, but Kimmel is a moron who wouldn't do it. The

Nexstar made the decision to drop Kimmel before Carr suggested anyone

That's a lie, fascist filth.
Nexstar, the nationAs largest station owner, denied on Thursday that it
pulled oJimmy Kimmel Live!o off the air due to pressure from FCC Chairman
Brendan Carr.
The company announced the decision hours after Carr threatened to take action
against ABC affiliates over KimmelAs comments about Charlie KirkAs killer.
Carr also urged affiliates to preempt the show.
Asked whether NexstarAs decision was in any way influenced by CarrAs remarks,
Gary Weitman, the companyAs chief communications officer, said oNo.o

What is the FCC's responsibility?
The limitations on the FCC's power to restrict or ban speech begin
with the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which decrees that
the federal government "shall make no law -a abridging the freedom of
speech, or of the press." Accordingly, Congress through Section 326 of
the Communications Act, 47 U.S.C. -o 326, explicitly declared that
nothing in the statute
shall be understood or construed to give the Commission the power of censorship over the [broadcast] communications or signals transmitted
by any [broadcast] station, and no regulation or condition shall be promulgated or fixed by the Commission which shall interfere with the
right of free speech by means of [over-the-air] broadcast
communication.
---
Further, from
<https://www.fcc.gov/sites/default/files/broadcasting_false_information.pdf>
---
Broadcasting false content during news programming
The FCC is prohibited by law from engaging in censorship or infringing
on First Amendment rights of
the press. It is, however, illegal for broadcasters to intentionally
distort the news, and the FCC may act
on complaints if there is documented evidence of such behavior from
persons with direct personal
knowledge. For more information, please see our consumer guide,
Complaints About Broadcast
Journalism (www.fcc.gov/consumers/guides/complaints-about-broadcast-journalism).

SCORE!
Trump is not under FCC jurisdiction, Dummy.
So? Doesn't make him any less a liar.
Don't forget that the vast majority of what's at that wiki site
contain author half-truths and out of context statements.
You just can't stop lying either, can you?

What is the FCC's responsibility?
The limitations on the FCC's power to restrict or ban speech begin
with the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which decrees that
the federal government "shall make no law ? abridging the freedom of
speech, or of the press." Accordingly, Congress through Section 326 of
the Communications Act, 47 U.S.C. o 326, explicitly declared that
nothing in the statute
shall be understood or construed to give the Commission the power of
censorship over the [broadcast] communications or signals transmitted
by any [broadcast] station, and no regulation or condition shall be
promulgated or fixed by the Commission which shall interfere with the
right of free speech by means of [over-the-air] broadcast
communication.

Once again my opinion is Kimmel is a pawn in all of this.
Both networks are in the middle of negotiating merger deals for big money. Kimmel's ratings have been tanking and let's face it the guy isn't funny.
So Trump enters this mess, wrongly IMHO, and has pull with the FCC who will in
part
determine the outcome of the mergers and bingo Kimmel is put on hold to please
the FCC
who want to please Trump.
Kimmel is a POS however in this case it's not censorship but follow the money.
And I do not believe that Trump or the FCC trying to please Trump should be involved in any
of this.
I also did not feel that Biden should have been pressuring tech media to censor COVID posts
conservatives, Hunter laptop etc.
So where were you "free speech" left wing lunatics when that was going on? Those incidents surely affected far more people than a single, 3rd rate stand up
comedian.

Jimmy certainly got Lawsuit Larry's attention:
oI canAt believe ABC Fake News gave Jimmy Kimmel his job back.
The White House was told by ABC that his Show was cancelled!
Something happened between then and now because his audience
is GONE, and his atalentA was never there. Why would they want
someone back who does so poorly, whoAs not funny, and who puts
the Network in jeopardy by playing 99% positive Democrat

Not without Nexstar and Sinclair. I suspect the show is in a death
spiral due to poor ratings.
Nah, that's like 20% of ABC stations at most, I believe.
More like 30%, but his ratings are already poor.

Can either of you cite any stats?
AI overview: "National household reach: The combined blackout by--
Sinclair and Nexstar affects viewers in about 23-u25% of U.S.
households, effectively blocking millions of viewers from watching
Kimmel's return."
Second place out of four networks isn't poor. Especially since that
third place network was #1 for forty years.

No, reading further down, actually *both* of those affiliates have put
Kimmel back on!
One fun bit:
Sinclair also announced it would air a special in remembrance of
Kirk in Kimmel's time slot, but then decided to put it on YouTube
instead.
Money talks louder than religious or political ideology. Or at least

As I wrote a couple of days ago, when they find that Kimmel gets
better ratings than re-runs of Andy Griffith, they'll be putting him
back on the air.
Kimmel noted the big boost in his viewership a couple days ago,
and, like the grateful and appreciative liberal he is, thanked
President Trump.

I'll bet ABC/Disney wishes he was doing better on "the tube."

Probably the most competitive on the planet. There's a saying,

That's a true statement.
As I always say, the average American can tell you all about Dancing
With the Stars, but has no idea who their state representatives are.
That being said, with the exception of AM talk radio which is on life support, the left controls the media by far. At least the legacy
media. They always have.

I have no problem with that
but it's still all about money
and if Kimmel
sinks again in the ratings, which I predict he will, he's gone.
Just like any entertainer.
And BTW, this was never a first amendment issue despite the left trying
to push the narrative.

Tell that to the millions who couldn't
watch the Kimmel return because Sinclair
stations all over the country refused to
broadcast it.
And the "liberal" ABC News who fired
him. And the "liberal" CBS who fired
Steven Colbert.
The Conservative Agenda:
Make life harder for veterans
Make life harder for retirees
Make life harder for teachers
Make life harder for farmers
Make life harder for consumers
Make life harder for students
Make life harder for disaster victims
Make life harder for tourists
Make life harder for gay people
Make life harder for trans people
Make life harder for sick people
Make life harder for students
Make life harder for voters
