ABC Defies President Trump

What is the MAGA approved popcorn brand ?

The MAGA crowd doesn't give two-shits about Kimmel because he's basically irrelevant to them. He's just another hater in a world filled with them. You'll see no one from MAGA with pitchforks and torches storming the studio. Kimmel's a bore.

I'm gonna do some looting and throw rocks at cars.

Trump'll probably throw a hissy fit and send in the National Guard.

And founder, when can we expect Icey's cancelation? He's an annoying troll who offers nothing to your site, plus he's been insulting and mocking you recently. Terminate the bastard.

ABC brings back Jimmy Kimmel today after its debacle over freedom of speech.

There, I Fixed It For You, @founder.

You are welcome.

@Lex Luthor icey has even threatened legal action against founder and the website previously. Lol

Lol... It's all a joke, my friends

Not so fast:

Sinclair Stations Still Won't Air Jimmy Kimmel

newser.com

^ when they find out that they’ll lose Monday night football, the will change their mind

^Dandy Don was announcing the last time Monday Night Football was relevant lol.

Of the 230 ABC stations, about 40 are controlled by Sinclair. Across all broadcast stations, about 1.5 million people watch Kimmel on air. About 20 million watch on YouTube and other streaming platforms. Sinclair is not Goliath in this fight.

In other news: I think I was in fourth grade when I learned that if you punch a bully back, he'll stop. (Doesn't always work, but that's the place to start.)

MAGA douchebags beefing with corporate douchebags is a no-lose situation. The harder they fight, the bigger the win for non-douchebags.

Conservatives, particularly the Christian brand which Charlie Kirk most appealed to, are not the violent type. Even Erika Kirk had the strength to stand at his memorial and announce that she was forgiving her husband's assassin as the Bible had taught her. These people are nothing like the leftists who attack people for disagreeing, who block interstates, loot, and riot and call it "a mostly peaceful demonstration", who lie, smear, and dehumanize the right championing free speech and equality. The leftists, as they are very stupid and lacking imagination, cannot grasp that MAGA and the Conservative right have more subtle and powerful tools to affect change. For example, the leftists on this site who took Founder's satire as serious expectation.

But I thought the cancellation was due to Trump trampling on the first amendment. This sounds like it was a corporate decision.

It’ll be interesting to see if Jimmy gets a rating bump and how long it’s sustained. The Beatles had their best selling albums after saying they were bigger than Jesus and then pissing off Imelda Marcos in the Philippines

@gobstopper007 Right? who would have thunk it? An publicly traded media company making a choice independent of politics and based upon cultural and shareholder value? That never happens.

No, MAGA won't storm the studio. Only the left reacts with violence.

The Biden Administration "advised" social media companies that they should censor certain content. A baseline rule is, be extra skeptical of broadcast media for news or political analysis. Frequency allocation requires government regulation and very limited access, so the reporting is the most prone to having agendas other than good journalism. The Kimmel thing was a "crisis" because the Trumpers threw their weight around very publicly to gratify their base. I'm skeptical it hasn't happened more privately under past Presidents. Nobody made Kimmel jump into the guilt-by-association cesspool. When comedians need dumbasses who think they're political analysts to have enough viewers, they've failed at their actual jobs.

Jimmy Kimmel back on the air tonight, and the world is supposed to end either today or tomorrow.

This is not a coincidence!!!!

The two biggest station owners for ABC have announced they will not broadcast Kimmel. They could air Gilligan’s Island and get better ratings.

By law, anyone using the public airwaves ( ABC, CBS, NBC ) must serve the public interest by presenting balanced viewpoints. I predict, in the next three years, the government will auction off these frequencies to be used by mobile and internet providers. Bye bye legacy media.

Nexstar has announced they will also keep Kimmel off the air until they are satisfied that ABC and Jimbo's show have committed to improvements in their programming rhetoric.

Actually 99.99999%+ of people on both sides of the political spectrum are peaceful and non-violent. The difference is that the right focuses on the less than 0.00001% on the left who have made news for violence, mention and run their stories over and over, and add deceptive narratives to smear the entire left.

^I would say more than 85% of the people on the left support violence against Jews and well over 50% support violence against the police, insurance executives, ICE and anyone else on earth that disagrees with them. The left is comprised of the most bigoted, hateful and violent people on earth.

Love the sarcastic dig from founder regarding Jan 6. All talk shows are on the decline with tge rise of other media outlets. Fringe people can sit and stew in their own bubble now without being kept in check within their own echo chambers. I avoid all outlets opinion heavy, almost. Gotta check in with tuscl once in a while to see which ones are still certifiably nuts, but pretend to be righteous.

^Pot calls the kettle black...news at 11.

wld4testes is FULL OF SHIT! Everyone known, and the numbers prove, that democrat voters support violence in politics well over Republican voters. Let's go to the tape:

today.yougov.com today.yougov.com today.yougov.com today.yougov.com

Democrat voters have committed more violence and support committing violence in politics against the opponents by a huge margin. The demorat party supports terror, supports criminals, and enables both on every front. This is why they are losing and lashing out by becoming even more violent. Until saner heads in their party prevail, we must reject and isolate them and their rhetoric at every turn. This is why Jimmy Kimmel was taken off the air temporarily. He was lying (more) and enhancing the environment which encourages violence from the left.

Maybe the government should be out of the tv business.

Other polls show more support for violence on the right: cnn.com At the end of the day there are still very limited instances of political violence happening, and no basis to broadly portray the left as the party of violence, except in the minds of RepubliCONs looking to deceive Americans to score political points.

Honest question. Before Kirk when was last time there was an assassination based purely on political/ideological reasons. Not counting actual politicians. The insurance exec earlier in the year possibly but before then. Asking because the last assassination of liberal leaning person that comes to mind would be MLK and that can’t be most recent.

What type of buffoon posts something from CNN, pretending it is an unbiased source? The simple fact is all the George Floyd urban terrorists were lefties; all the looters were lefties; the tranny murderers have all been lefties; muslims are lefties, as idiotic as it sounds, but to be fair progressives, muslims and nazis all view jews the same, if there is a counter protest that turns violent in order to prevent one side from lawful assembly and speech the counter protestors are 100% lefties. Antifa is garbage, lefties and should all be exterminated; and on and on.

Gobstopper, were you around earlier this year when the Minnesota democrats were assassinated by that political right wing nut job? What is shameful regarding media is that everything is being politicized instead of looking at the simple facts which is people are acting out their hate towards others, all based on opinions. Stupid.

Waylon Jennings once said in an interview on tv that he wishes the media would stop reporting on these tragic events. That way the nut jobs wouldn’t get the attention they crave. I for one haves stopped consuming as much media, even this website due to angry angst projected all too much without regard to civility. Dumb….^^

Less than 15 years to go to the end of America.

I remember that Mate, that’s why I said excluding politicians.

The CNN article discusses results from multiple independent polls and studies, which one would realize if they took the time to read it. Stopping because of the website name and claiming bias is the type of excuse low information voters use to avoid educating themselves.

wild4testes, poster girl of leftist shills everywhere.

Gob: Political but not politician seems like a narrow category, but take a minute to drill down on this Wikipedia category:

en.wikipedia.org

Jimbo gave the type of non-apology that reasonable people expected. I think TP is expecting and asking too much of him for a full and direct apology, but I also believe he was not explicit enough in acknowledging his own lies. He failed the national audience when he continued the same gaslighting that got him suspended. At one point he stated that Pres. Trump was applauding him and his staff losing their livelihoods because he could not take a joke. However, Jimbo does not make jokes. A joke would be "President Trump is so fat that the AF1 flight crew asked him to purchase an extra seat ticket. Joe Biden is so old that Medicare dropped his health insurance. Kamala is so deep in denial that she found Dr. Livingston." Jimbo stating that Charlie Kirk's assassin was MAGA and not a leftist trans activist is gaslighting, as was his statement that his gaslighting was a joke and not deliberate lies designed to subvert the public interest. It was a deliberate attack against everyone who opposed the murder of a peaceful man by deranged leftist trans activist.

At the end of the day, the Man Show and this brief notoriety will be sum total of his legacy. He is down to 1.5M viewers a couple of weeks ago, and has lost at 25% of those with the channels that have decided to keep his show off the air. His show is a few last gasps of leftist cope which mainstream America has already moved on from.

The recent spate of trans related murders proves that trans = mental illness and that it is contagious.

The ultra biased lying machine known as CNN relies on other mainstream left-wing fraudulent sites, so the idea that CNN does anything honestly and fairly is mere pblum for the retarded progressives on this site.

Kimmel was classy, gracious and funny last night. The show's YouTube channel alone is showing over 10M views. Probably watched by tens of millions.

Some folks are butthurt that the show is back. Gammanu writing one of his trademark long-winded attacks, so predictable and sad. Trump going on another disgusting tirade and threatening to sue ABC. The clip from Ted Cruz last night warning about government censorship was spot on... good to see the conservatives who have been speaking up on free speech.

Ted Cruz said "If the government gets in the business of saying we don’t like what you, the media, have said, we’re going to ban you from the airwaves if you don’t say what we like, that will end up bad"

If everyone across the political spectrum can't agree with that, you don't actually like freedom of speech as much as you claim to.

All we're asking is that media refrain from telling lies when they're fully aware they're lying. Media that are regulated by the fcc are supposed to be at least a little balanced, which they aren't now.

^Further if shows delve into politics and only provide airtime for one side's view, then the law requires them to give equal time. The days of blatant political scheming by pretending unfunny people are comedians is over.

wld4testes aka randomloser is as much of a shameless gaslighting shill as he has ever been. His comprehension and breadth of experience are low enough that he may have actually thought Kimmel did well last night, as my careful critique clearly went over his head. He also expected us to discard his sources on right-wing violence out-of-hand, as they should have been. I did a bit of a deep dive and his links were, predictably, op-ed attack pieces masquerading as journalism. Exactly what we should expect from CNN. Remember, that is a newsroom that went in to open revolt when the CEO placed a centrist in charge to eliminate partisan hackery. That are not and can not be taken seriously. That is exactly the source that a buffoon like testes would want to protect his leftist echo chamber.

Having said all that, we are warned to be careful. Facts show that leftists like wld4testes are the most likely to engage in violence and attempt to harm and kill their political foes. Fortunately, wld4testes would piss her pants right upon the sight of a gun and blow her pussy off before she even figured out which end goes pew pew pew.

The leftist political violence continues daily.

foxnews.com

If the left cared about free speech at all, there would be no hate crime laws in this country, pretending that yelling I am going to kill you asshole, is somehow far less serious than I am going to kill you homo. Note: on the left it is ok to kill Jews for any reason, including being the victim of Muslim land theft.

Who am I to question Founder, but this almost seems like it should have been posted in the Politics board. 🙂

^Politics is a disease that affects everyone, everywhere, all the time.

I need more popcorn! it's day two for this thread, I'm curious, has anyone changed their opinion either way ?

Trumps meltdown 🤡💩

founder is the unitary executive of TUSCL, all forums are his bitches.

^^ Well 25 I used to fantasize about a this country recovering, but after this I think I prefer that it end.

Kimmel will get a good ratings bump mainly out of curiosity...for just a few days, then back in the dumpster. He and his 100+ person crew should get their CVs updated abd start shopping for a new gig now as I'll be stunned if Disney renews his contract when it expires 1-Jun-2026. Then, ABC needs to find new content, a test pattern will get better ratings.

The ways that younger generations have been consuming media should have clearly signaled that late-night talk shows were ending. During their heyday, musicians released albums which had to be purchased in their entirety, new release movies were watched exclusively in theaters, and television networks carefully crafted their nightly lineups to keep you glued on the couch and to the same channel. In the past 10-15 years, all of that has changed. The changing landscape of how music is created and consumed has been talked to death on here, most new movies are garbage and can be streamed On Demand with in a few weeks if not on the day of release, and TV shows are binged instead of unfolding over weeks or months.

Late night TV was based around getting the how new stars of each genre on to promote their latest project. Anticipation for the project drove viewers to the show, reaction to the show drove viewers to the project. Even remote work has removed the practice of chatting about the show around the water cooler from the workplace. Late night TV is obsolete. It no longer has a purpose or a place in the American media entertainment landscape.

^ This generation has moved over to a new "Vast Wasteland" as Newton Minow, the former chairman FCC, and hence the reason Sherwood Schwartz named the SS Minnow after him.

@skibum I'm torn between agreeing with you about America's decline and optimism about our future as human beings have been able to solve the most intractable of problems over the ages, this article that was originally published by Rolling Stone is interesting and gives me hope, you might have a different take on it, if you read it. apple.news

25 as with everything else on Rolling Stone the left wing bias and citation of opinion as fact is astounding. The left can claim that January 6, was armed insurrection and that is something I deny and will never agree with. So it is not a fact. The true armed insurrection was "CHOP" in Seattle and that is my opinion. In addition, I fint the author is making "citizenship" as anything but in an argument to allow illegal aliens in or allowing them to stay and govong them the vote. They are not citizens, never should be and should be ineligible to vote. I stopped reading the biased drivel after the "author" started blming George W. This article confirms it is hopeless. I blame the democrats for the demise of democracy; I blame their judges for cheatingby ruling based on their personal political opinions (which is why I adore Amy Coney Barrett), I blame democrats for the fact that in my state people born here go hungry because the Governor spent 1.2 billion dollars of our money, catering to foreigners who snuck in and never should be allowed to stay. I look at things like this: If God came to me and said he was changing my age by 20 years, but I could choose to be almost 88, or almost 48, I would have said 88 before he was done speaking. To the turds on the left who think being nti-immigrstion is racism; I say you're fucking ignorant racists yourself, and that living in the Boston area in the 60s and 70s mde me hate immirants, especially the illegals with a passion and to this day I still won't get a lap dance from anyone who looks Irish.The immigrants who taught me to hate immigrants were lily white.

There was no fact to this article it was an opinion piece based on facts like the rise and fall of the Roman Empire and other empires throughout known history, which really isn’t in dispute, if you read the article you can understand what my point is, if you just skimmed through it trying to find issues to dispute then you really missed the point. I’m not saying that immigrants should be able to enter at will, but rather, that we need new ways to look at issues, for the record I’m probably much more conservative than most, difference is I refuse to allow inherent distrust to enhance my ability to make decisions based on facts, my opinions are not based on what others think or say, rather on how they impact my circumstances

What Kimmel said was both amazingly stupid and utterly nasty. But I support the right for him to make a jackass of himself on national television. This is the very purpose of our First Amendment free speech protections. . So I'm glad that ABC pushed back. Trump is wrong on this one. We cannot be chastising European countries for censorship on the one hand and then do the very same thing on the other. Trump abandoned a great moral high ground on the issue of free speech when he threatened FCC action against ABC.

Youre arguing that society is "biased" against white supremacists and Christian nationalists. And that thats bad 🤡 💩

^
Just another dougster being contrary post as part of his formula to troll tuscl 🤡 💩

Viking theeosu nor whatever you call yourself. Opposing right wing bigotry isnt being contrarian or trolling. Its being normal. But keep trolling every thread i post in. Calling me dougster coz you hated Dougster for calling out a pedophile on here 🤡💩

That troll sounds a lot like that autistic sirlapdancealot. Same trolling technique

First of all dougie, stop lying about me hating you because of the VM episode here, I was against him too except that I made a couple comments and then decided not to continue a back and forth with him and others that supported him. I recall saying that he was reprehensible regarding what he did, which if you can't comprehend it translates to i was on your side of that issue dumbass!

Yeah i'm going to dog you on all of your troll accounts so get used to it. You want it to stop, drop your icie moniker and go back to posting as who I and several others know you are, DOUGSTER!

As you should clearly see your blocking me didn't and won't stop me because I will be here to address your troll charade until you drop it. If you don't drop it I won't drop it either. Is that clear enough? lulz

I forgot, you need this to help you understand better 🤡💩

PRO level statisticians in here. Both sides. The anal side, and the cock side. Figure out which side you're on.

^ Besides being 🤡💩, iciedougster is on the receiving end of both sides lulz

Just dipping in to note the discordance of our beloved Founder putting this in the Front Room rather than in Politics. That is all. Thank you for your attention to this matter

Politics infects life everywhere.

My attitude is fuck anyone who tells me what I should or shouldn’t watch Watching a show is my right as an American if you don’t like it dont watch.

founder hangs a lot in Vegas, and Kimmel is a lounge act, so it's personal to him, not political.

"^Dandy Don was announcing the last time Monday Night Football was relevant lol."

Meanwhile relevant or not both Nexstar and Sinclair caved, and Kimmel's show is back on their air

Sirlapdancealot theeosu viking

Youre officially the most delusional ficktard on here 😂

🔺👍 ' Yay Yay! Trump let's TikTok stay apparently & the deal is working out, I like their videos!

'Youre officially the most delusional ficktard on here'

So says icee icie iceyloco phatboi txtittyfag mypoorlifechoices davids and multiple other troll accounts from dougie DOUGSTER the poster boy for delusional lulz

Do like you've always done dougie, keep doubling down and repeating the same lies over and over in the hope that you dupe some of the simpletons here. Keep grabbing the low hanging fruit fuckhead 🤡💩

Trump Info : The Space Center being moved to Huntsville Alabama will create approx 30,000 jobs Trump said. There is already NASA Center there & Trump said it will be s good outlook for building a missile dome defense system.
