NewsBusters Podcast: Jimmy Kimmel Schtick's Too Cruel for ABC Stations
ABC stations revolted when late-night host Jimmy Kimmel uncorked some revolting remarks about the murder of Charlie Kirk, lying against all evidence that the suspect is a Trump supporter.
Kimmel claimed on Monday that “the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it.”
ABC could be a response to Nexstar and Sinclair stations announcing they wouldn’t air the Kimmel show. MRC President David Bozell and NewsBusters Managing Editor Curtis Houck joined me to review the current situation.
David made it plain: ABC should fire this man, for once and for all. The stations that objected to Kimmel should be commended.
At NewsBusters, we never expect any leftist platform to be cancelled, or any leftist personality to be suspended. We were shocked at Kimmel, just as we were shocked at CBS announcing an end to Stephen Colbert's show.
For the last ten years, these "comedians" have been viciously anti-Trump, and our only job has been to document it -- and in our Alex Christy's case, doing a joke count to precisely measure the degree of Democrat-pleasing "comedy."
It is not an exaggeration to say that the Acela Media appear more upset about the loss of Kimmel’s show than they are about Kirk’s assassination. MSNBC's Chris Hayes decried "the latest chapter in Donald Trump's ongoing campaign to crack down on free speech, dominate the media, and essentially render the First Amendment meaningless."
The Left has created a narrative that Trump caused Kimmel's suspension -- and that his FCC chairman Brendan Carr is acting on his "authoritarian playbook." In their story-telling, Kimmel is a free-speech hero. Every vicious journalist or comedian against Trump is part of the "independent media." They sound very dependent on Democrat talking points. The late-night shows tilt against Republicans in their joke counts and overwhelming favor Democrats as their pampered guests.
Enjoy the Podcast below, and you can watch it on video tomorrow morning.
