#BobIger, #Disney’s chief executive, & #DanaWalden, his head of #TV, were also hearing from skittish #advertisers & #employees who had begun to receive threatening messages. When the team reviewed #JimmyKimmel’s planned remarks, they grew concerned that his monologue would only inflame the situation further.

#Conservatives had accused #JimmyKimmel of mischaracterizing the #politics of the man accused of killing the #FarRight activist #CharlieKirk. #Trump’s chair of the #FCC had just warned #ABC of serious consequences, telling the network that “we can do this the easy or the hard way.” And a #Texas-based owner of many #ABCaffiliates was preparing to pull #Kimmel from its stations indefinitely.

#Disney Pulled #JimmyKimmel As Pressure Built On Multiple Fronts
For #BobIger & his leadership team at Disney & #ABC, time was running out.
Jimmy Kimmel, one of the company’s biggest stars, was preparing to tape the Wednesday edition of his late-night show in Hollywood at 4:30PM. And he had written an opening monologue that would address a cascading political firestorm head-on.

so the Mastodon team is trying to literally implement #censorship as an #ActivityPub feature with quoted toots:
❝ The issue here is having a mechanism for the client to know that an URL is an AP status, then exposing the status object so it can be displayed in the client (and c͟h͟e͟c͟k͟ f͟o͟r͟ q͟u͟o͟t͟e͟ a͟u͟t͟h͟o͟r͟i͟s͟a͟t͟i͟o͟n͟) ❞

with physical speech, the only way you can be forced into “quote authorization” is by having your fingers and tongue cut off and being banished into silence… 🧵
Disney's ABC is pulling "Jimmy Kimmel Live" off the air following remarks made by its host about the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/09/18/companies/disney-abc-jimmy-kimmel-kirk/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #companies #disney #abc #jimmykimmel #charliekirk #us #donaldtrump #tv #censorship #republicans
The Trump administration wants to ban this photo, among others, to censor about slavery. Maybe time to post tonnes of links and photos of these atrocities?

The fascist repression of free speech grinds onwards. Remember that the First Amendment only applies to right-wing hate speech.

"The Department of Justice has removed a study showing that white supremacist and far-right violence 'continues to outpace all other types of terrorism and domestic violent extremism' in the United States. The study, which was conducted by the National Institute of Justice [#NIJ] and hosted on a #DOJ website was available there at least until September 12, 2025, according to an archive of the page saved by the Wayback Machine. Daniel Malmer, a PhD student studying online extremism at UNC-Chapel Hill, first noticed the paper was deleted."

GamersNexus's documentary on GPU smuggling into China, showing literally every step of the supply chain with people on camera willing to talk, is BACK ONLINE after Bloomberg's attempt to silence them via a bogus copyright claim.
It's here! Watch it, because it's sat at 0 views for two weeks thanks to Bloomberg News. Even if you just play it in the background, let's get this thing showing up in YouTube's algorithm again:

Here's Steve talking about some of the shit Bloomberg did, and some of the ways Bloomberg tried to entrap them into giving up their fair-use rights:
Absolute artistic masterpiece.

Here's how censorship is starting to work in US universities:
"A&M Dean removed following student complaints over curriculum."
https://www.kbtx.com/2025/09/09/am-dean-professor-removed-following-student-complaints-over-curriculum/
PS: Watch the video. The student didn't say to the prof, "I think you're teaching something untrue. Can you say more about the evidence?" She said, "You're teaching something that Donald Trump says is untrue." When the student brought her "documentation" to the university president, he fired the prof and the dean of her school.
