Disney losing billions over decision to censor Jimmy Kimmel
“And then there’s how capitulating to a bully only invites more bullying – #FCC’s chair Carr, not satisfied with getting #Kimmel removed from the #ABC lineup, is now threatening to target the morning show “The View,” whose hosts are also critical of the #Trump administration.”
Nexstar owns The Hill, which explains a lot.

Bonta demands FCC chair ‘stop his campaign of censorship’ following Kimmel suspension
Capitulation leads to more capitulation. We need corporations that will fight for democracy, and must BOYCOTT those who won’t.

We gotta make Disney absolutely pissed that these fascist fucks are fucking up their entire online business.
Disney is probably loosing more money than Sinclair is worth.
Like this is hilarious. Sinclair has like maybe $1B of revenue and $4B of total valuation.
Meanwhile Disney is welll, Disney. A $200B behemoth.
Talk about tail wagging the dog with all this Kimmel censorship backlash 🤣
Jimmy Kimmel's show went on last night to only partial coverage on TV stations around the US.
In his opener he went right in on the fascist orange elephant in the room, Trump's attempts to censor him...
Before Kimmel's show aired on Tuesday, #Trump wrote that he "can't believe" #ABC gave #Kimmel back his show, & hinted at further action against the network.
"Why would they want someone back who does so poorly, who's not funny, & who puts the Network in jeopardy by playing 99% positive Democrat GARBAGE," Trump wrote on Truth Social.

#Trump then threatens, "He is yet another arm of the DNC (Democratic National Committee) and, to the best of my knowledge, that would be a major illegal Campaign Contribution. I think we're going to test #ABC out on this.”

2 companies that operate ~¼ of #ABC #affiliates nationwide, #Nexstar Media Group & #Sinclair Broadcasting, also said they would not air #Kimmel’s show.
#Disney took a step last Dec to avoid a confrontation w/ #Trump by paying $15M to settle his *defamation* lawsuit against #ABCNews & #GeorgeStephanopoulos. It also made moves to dismantle some of its #DEI practices, including removing references in its annual report to its Reimagine Tomorrow program aimed at “amplifying underrepresented voices.”
Apparently that wasn’t enough.
In April, the #FCC sent a a blistering letter to #Disney CEO #BobIger saying it suspected the company was so thoroughly “infected” with “invidious” practices *favoring* *minorities* that it had no choice but to open an *investigation*.
Among other questions, the probe sought to determine whether Disney had really ended policies designed to ensure characters in its shows & its hiring practices favored “underrepresented groups.”
#ABC owner Walt #Disney Co., a massive organization with far-flung operations, frequently seeks #federal #regulatory approval to expand, buy or sell businesses or acquire licenses. And the #Trump admin has not spared the company from *investigations*, opening multiple inquiries in just the past few months to probe possible antitrust, programming & hiring *violations*.

#JimmyKimmel was suspended from his show this week following comments suggesting that fans of #CharlieKirk were trying to capitalize on the conservative activist’s assassination [they are]. Federal Communications Commission [#FCC] Chairman Brendan Carr called the remarks “truly sick” & suggested his agency would look into them.
Carr answers to #Trump, who’s already on record as *disliking* [despising] Kimmel’s comedy.

#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.

Here is the clip from the #JimmyKimmel Show on Tuesday night 9-16-2025
He points out #JDVance lying on the #CharlieKirk show & how the #DOJ took the stats off the page that showed the majority of the domestic violence was from the RIGHT.
