Look at this very lovely lady lying to take advantage of the good will of people (I would assume her fellow Dems).
Old Jabba keeping Illinois safe from Trump.

Jimmy Kimmel: Trump pressure on the media mounting https://share.google/eUoC0hDU7mIqfk7Zz
The difference in this case is that the government pressured ABC to pull Kimmel off the air. It is government censorship. Even Tucker Carlson said it was wrong.
Actually, private entities that own ABC affiliates made this happen by pulling Kimmel unilaterally. ABC then caved to reality.
But, nice try.
Hilarious that you are now a Tucker Carlson fan.
I'm old enough to remember when Clinton/Obama/Etc. tried to get Limbaugh off the air and "equal time" programming restored via law. Just remember Jeff, Rush Limbaugh was "equal time" to the left-wing propaganda that you slurp down. Bye bye racist, sexist, America-hating Jimmy Kimmel. I'm sure Netflix will throw you 15M.
That is not what happened. Nexstar wanted to buy additional local stations that would require FCC approval. The FCC chair told them you better take care of Kimmel. That is why it happened.
I am not a Tucker Carlson fan. Just pointing out that people on both sides can see government censorship for what it is.

So much for freedom of speech.

A company that owns OVER 500 television Stations alerted that they would no longer put up with programming anger !
Disney didn't want to see another shareholder revolt, caved and Kimmel can have a nice vacation !

This is false. Sinclair/Nextstar stations were the catalyst for ABC. This isn’t censorship. Kimmel willfully told a big whopper. ABC is an over the airwaves network and thus beholden to certain rules cable networks aren’t. Tucker Carlson is a dummy.

Some Republicans are not comfortable with the FCC chair's pressure tactics regarding Kimmel.

Welp, Jeff and Stone, the real reason Kimmel is gone - he has no audience except for a handful of deranged leftists!
So here we go AGAIN with posters with severe TDS blaming what a major publicly traded company does for protecting it's value and assuming Trump cares what Kimmel speaks.
