The left’s support for Jimmy Kimmel is the epitome of transferring what they have done for years suppressing free speech. Today’s headlines trashing Trump’s supposed attack on free speech has no reference to Twitter’s ban of President Trump’s account while he was the President.
What should happen? People are allowed to free speech under the conditions imposed by law. You are not allowed to scream “fire” in a movie theater. We also have laws concerning libel and character defamation. In this case, Kimmel falsely proclaimed that the alleged assassin was a MAGA supporter, it did not directly attack the character of Charlie Kirk. Imagine the premise that Disney is supporting: the concept of making America great again is responsible for the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
It also is the right for advertisers or television stations to pull their support of an event or television show for no reason. Disney, Netflix and mainstream media still will not acknowledge that American values and culture are still intact across much of the nation. Two examples are the Sydney Sweeney commercials and the memorial service for Charlie Kirk. Imagine the major news networks not airing this service for fear of reprisals from the Darkness.
While it is up to Disney to reinstate Jimmy Kimmel, its affiliate stations still have the right to not air propaganda and lies. What if this spreads to impact other programs, products and media outlets? Trump has won several cases of false claims about his character and creative editing. While this will not win the war, more lawsuits will make them consider the consequences of their actions. Or not, the Darkness will never stop until it is destroyed.
I don’t think its a bad thing.
Think about it. It hastens the split in society, yes? More and more people will see the hypocrisy, the institution of legacy media takes another arrow to the chest.
No way out but through. You have to accept that. The phoenix does not rise without burning in fire. The faster things happen, the sooner we get to the other side.
I more or less agree. Let these damned fools go on revealing themselves as hateful, delusional liars. A sack of dog squeeze like kimmel has the added benefit of burning inordinate amounts of cash to the detriment of his employer Disney/ABC, and in my view that as a good thing. His ratings were already dismal, and now being carried on some 70 odd less affiliates (including some in major liberal hive mind hot bed markets) the advertising revenue will tank, further wrecking the viability of his show until it runs out of support from the network.
No one but dyed in the wool liberal true believers watch him anyway, so his influence beyond those already lost to leftist insanity is fairly limited. I don’t get why those on the right are so hung up on getting rid of morons like this. I do understand the desire for retribution, but he does more harm to himself and his corporate overlords while he is still on the air, and holds no real sway outside his core audience (who are all leftists) anyway. There are far more worthy targets we should be looking to take down. An unfunny TV show host with a pitiful market share isn’t something to be very concerned with IMHO.
With both out–that’s 1/2 of his audience gone. Poof!
