ABC pulls Jimmy Kimmel Live after comments on Charlie Kirk

[Servus]

The laughter was for his bit about the rush to make political advantage, not about the murder, or Mr Kirk himself.

Keep digging that hole.

I'll that as, yes, you believe the POTUS can use the FCC to control political speech.

Sounds like desperation for people to believe in the latest Trump is a dictator conspiracy theory.

 

[GoldenBoy89]

And that's were he should have stopped.

Why?

Trump isn’t threatening to go after other shows now? Sounds like someone’s got their head buried in the sand.

Keep digging that hole.

Instead of showing me where Im wrong, you drag out a generic cliche. Great.

No, the laugher was over Kimmel using Kirk's murder to mock Trump. Nothing said whatsoever at all for any reason about a murder that just occurred, should generate laughter. I really should not have to explain that. But if the left wants to keep digging a deeper hole by saying it was okay in any way, they obviously will keep going at it.

Post a clip of him saying exactly that.

I would agree if it had been about the murder, and not limited to the politicizing reaction.

"My condolences on the loss of your friend Charlie Kirk. May I ask, sir, personally, how are you holding up over the last day and a half, sir? Yes. He's at the fourth stage of grief, construction." *laugher from audience*

If you still don't get it, I totally give up on trying to explain it to you.

That’s a joke about Trump, not Charlie.

When did the right become so PC?

Its looking askance at the people rushing to make political hay out of the whole thing.

Note that this portion of the transcript is from the video clip that was played - that was a question that a reporter asked Trump, not something Kimmel said.

Start with Jimmy Kimmel claiming MAGA assassinated Kirk.

 

[Chrystal-J]

I never could stand Jimmy Kimmel, especially when he cried on-air over Trump winning the election. But, I'm also for free speech. So, unless his ratings were low, I don't see a reason for dismissal.

 

[wing2000]

Jesse is your source. Okay then!

 

[durangodawood]

Start with Jimmy Kimmel claiming MAGA assassinated Kirk.

You mean like the MAGA movement killed him? Is that what Kimmel claimed?

 

[The Barbarian]

Nothing at all there mocks the murder, or Mr Kirk himself. Its all about the rush to make political advantage from it, which is real.

He was mocking those who were dancing on Kirk's body, trying to make political points about it.

Which to those who were doing it, was a greater outrage than if he had actually mocked Kirk.
