    The funniest thing about your bullshit is Trump is out there tweeting that he hopefully played a major role in his firing and he wants Fallon fired next. But yeah sure all they want is an apology lmao

    I sincerely hope the admin is paying you for your posts. I cant imagine anyone voluntarily sucking on his nuts for free

    He didn’t just suggest an apology:

    “We can do this the easy way or the hard way. These companies can find ways to change conduct, to take action, frankly, on Kimmel, or, you know, there’s going to be additional work for the FCC ahead.”

    He construed Kimmel’s remarks as “some of the sickest conduct imaginable” and threatened regulatory consequences if ABC didn’t discipline or at a minimum force him to apologize.

    The clip I heard doesn't deserve this kind of reaction from Disney or FCC

    It does if Disney is looking for a reason to cut him. It seems some of ya have forgotten about Fox cutting many of their people awhile back. The money and the viewers is just not there, for Disney and Fox and all of the networks for that matter. MSM is dying. This is not a left or right issue.

    It doesnt. He has done borderline objectionable comedy few times. If Disney wants to cut him,they could have done it then. He was selected couple of years consecutively to present at Academy's as a host. So I don't think it is popularity thing either.

    I agree it is not left or right issue. Not so sure about it not being president Trump's issue though..

    Because it was Trump/FCC that did this.

    When it was found out the gov't was helping FB on content it should censor, I believe you were one of the people who posted it and called it out as deeply troubling.

    But I am sensing you see it's A-OK for the gov't to cancel their critics. Oh, sorry, By pressuring Disney with taking it off the air if it doesn't.

    He said MAGA was using Kirk's murder for political gain.

    If Charlie Kirk was a kid in school they would have forgotten all about him by now.

    Doing it after a request from the gov't shows this was not the case.

    I am definitely not going to spend a penny on ABC/Disney ever again. Disney+ sucks anyway. I not anyone but I know there will be many more.
