Jimmy Kimmel praised Erika Kirk. And also made a reference to Jesus.

(And he was totally sincere).

The local ABC affiliate in MA really hyped it up.

On the other hand, about 20% of the country didn't get to see it.

It is all downhill from here.

Kimmel's return has almost 8 million views on his You Tube channel in less than 12 hours. Undoubtedly some of those are people who never watched him before. He could end up growing in popularity after all this.

His only material seems to be dissing Trump and right wingers.

People get quickly bored of non-stop political commentary.

His contract won't be renewed because he is a financial liability to ABC

His only material only seems to be dissing Trump? Well I can see how it may seem like a lot of things to people who didn’t actually watch it!

For people who actually watched it instead of making assumptions not based on fact, one of the most significant parts was his praise of Erika!

(But it didn’t “seem” like that to people who actually watched it and didn’t have to engage in assumptions).

Just one post of Jimmy's comeback monolog has gotten over twenty million YouTube views already. Oldass MAGA like Trump still do not get how things work today. Jimmy's comeback is worldwide news. Just as Trump's humiliating United Nations blundering. What a disgrace...

“Cord-Cutters

Are you trying to pretend that is why someone on free network tv gets less of an audience than a guy on cable tv?

One of the things I find funny about the left obsession with how many people watched him on Tuesday was that the vast majority watched a snippet or two on you tube, to see if he apologized or if he doubled down on stupid.

Nowhere that many watched on broadcast tv.

Kimmel had less than the other one they let go. 

Basically, ABC pays Kimmel $16 million a year to host a non-funny show that loses $40 million a year.

All so a few lefties can have a little release at night.

And now, just 4 days later Sinclair caved to public pressure and is reinstating Kimmel live tonight.

Maybe people are confused as to directions?

(Or perhaps they may just be confused? Maybe in their confusion they may be thinking that Up is Down, War is Peace, Freedom is Slavery, Ignorance is Bliss ....???

“We made a decision last week to preempt ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ following what ABC referred to as Mr. Kimmel’s ‘ill-timed and insensitive’ comments at a critical time in our national discourse,” Nexstar said in a statement.

That means Kimmel won’t be seen in key markets where Nexstar beams ABC content into homes, including Syracuse, Salt Lake City, Hartford and Albany.


These are the Sinclair and Nexstar-owned ABC stations that won't air Jimmy Kimmel's return

Or so it was to be 3 days ago when I posted it.

(But at least, hopefully, it might put a lid on some of the Fake news that appeared...especially on social media, etc.)

When has Jimmy Kimmel ever stood up and defended people who he disagreed with were censored? 

And I guess all the people screaming fascism about his employer suspension must have missed google confirming yesterday that they censored content at the Biden admin's direction. So odd..

It's not odd in the least.  It's actually expected.  The very people claiming Trump is a fascist, are the very people that supported the Biden administration's censoring of the people.  These are the same people who are crying over ICE operations were calling law enforcement over groups of people during the "lock down".

They are also the same people who will tell you that Kimmel being let go is an attack on the 1st Amendment but silent about Charlie Kirk being killed.

To date, a lot of what they support actually falls within the REAL definition of fascism but they are too busy crying and pointing fingers to see it.

It is definitely hilarious to see the people who have actively tried to shut down free speech for 15 years suddenly try to pretend they give a shit about it.

Exactly.  Some folks whined when he was fired and some folks whined when he was brought back.  Someday they will realize what they have in common, whining.

Me? I just thought if Jimmy was trying to be funny he failed at it, just like any other night.  But it did give him a chance to be emotional.  Not bad for a guy who's claim to fame is "girls jumping on trampolines".

Reality of it is, for all we know, Kimmel's shitty show could have been cancelled to bring the outrage, then brought it back to get ratings up.
