I'm not a fan of Jimmy Kimmell but I do think it's a bit extreme..

@dale74 those were decidions by private companies not in response to govt pressure like the FCC

@TradEmily no they weren't

@dale74 you’re saying Tim Allen’s stale BS was cancelled due to pressure from the FCC?

@TradEmily no it wasn't it was backlash from his free speech support of trump. Kimball hasn't been funney in years if ever.

@dale74 not government pressure, Private companies can do what they want - and the public can use consumer power to influence private companies - that’s all individual decisions. The FCC is the Govt putting pressure on a private corporation. It wouldn’t matter even if they didn’t fire Kimmel - it’s wrong for the govt to attack free speech

@TradEmily Jimmy Kimball ratings were almost less that 1 million that show back in the day was twenty times that.

@TradEmily and the sinclair family is a privately run company

@dale74 it doesn’t matter even if they didn’t fire him. As an American u should be mad the Govt put pressure on a private tv station to silence someone. Anti-american.

@TradEmily sorry go cry you a river

@dale74 acting on pressure from the FCC the govt to suspend their broadcasting license

Did you cry when they canceled jay Leno

@TradEmily no, they weren't.And if millions were like you and supported the show, it would actually have decent viewership

Three hundred and thirty million people live in the united states.One point one million was the viewership of his showthat is 0.333%

@dale74 your fat-addled brain still doesn’t understand- the problem is FCC pressure not the ultimate decision to fire him

@TradEmily just realize he should have been canceled years ago.

If you want a debate, you can quit the name calling the name calling just shows you've lost the argument
