Why ABC brought back Jimmy Kimmel after ‘free speech’ controversy

In the end, Disney and ABC had no choice but to rehabilitate Jimmy Kimmel.

The reason is that the host late at night returns to the air tonight is that this entire matter was the absolute public relations catastrophe for ABC, and more personally for Disney Pop Eygar President, who traveled by his predecessor as CEO, Michael Eisner, accused of bending to “intimidation outside of control.”

I don’t think I am going out to one of the parties to say that Earger’s reputation is shattered forever.

The company has become a sticker as a high-level opponent for freedom of expression-a fatal tag for news organization ABC.

Disney announces “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” Back on Tuesday after the comment

So the “Undedient” comment ended.

I was able to smell that things were moving in this direction when I learned that the two sides were talking. And when Disney Kimmel asked about a second meeting on the last day, I knew that the only question is the day he would return.

Let’s reconsider the stupid and inherent comment that made Kimmel in trouble. And remember, like Stephen ColbertHe is so hostile to the extent that he surrendered half of his fans:

“We have reached the lowest new levels during the weekend, with the Maga gang severely trying to distinguish this child who killed Charlie Kirk like anything other than one of them.”

First, it was beyond the deaf tone, with very raw feelings The assassination of Charlie Kerk. The killer is not “Maga”, just the last madness that he said was behaving from “hatred” for Kirk, but he also sympathizes with homosexuals and transgendering like his colleague in the room and his romantic partner.

At the same time, there was pressure from FCC, with Brendan Car president Reducing by saying that he will act on Kimmel if you don’t do ABC. Even Car’s allies, like Ted Cruz, said that he seemed to be the head of the mob by declaring “We can do it in an easy way or in the difficult way.”

A nice small network you got here – be a shame if anything happens. Car walked again the next day.

What Kimmel said was not the worst thing that was pronounced on the air, and perhaps in one month it could have passed without anyone noticing. But not after that after the targeted assassination.

Howard Sterin explodes ABC on Kimmel’s comment, he says he canceled the Disney+ subscription

With this kind of blatant government pressure, ABC CAVED took Kimmel from the air as it was about to the tape last Wednesday – and it was said that he was preparing for a more striking monologue about Kirk Killer. Again, failed to read the electronic room.

He was from there.

Anyone who believes in freedom of expression – includes some Democrats Those who do not agree with Kirk about almost anything – Disney and ABC are now enemy.

Howard Stern, the closest friend of Kikil – said their families together – yesterday that he canceled his subscription to Disney+, as Robin Koyvars did. After participating with Kimmel, he said in his first live show since the comment:

“When the government says,” I am not happy with you, so we will organize a way to silence you, it’s the wrong trend of our country. It is not good. “

Steran called the comment “terrible” and “impressive” for such “big talent … you cannot support this type of step. I don’t care whether or not you love Jimmy. It is related to freedom of expression. If ABC wants to expel Jimmy because they did not like them, or had low classifications – they do not want to launch it.

Howard has many followers on Sirius XM that would take a braid from him.

About 400 celebrities signed Aclu Message This was described “a dark moment for freedom of expression in our nation.” These include Jennifer Aniston, Jason Batman, Robert De Niro, Jane Fonda, Selena Gomez, Tom Hanks, Olivia Rodrigo, Ben Steller, Jimmy Lee Cortis, Julia Luis Dirada, Maji Gilnah, Redina King, and Kerry Washington.

And Obi Goldberg comes out in the quiet critics of “The View” on Kimmel: “No one controls us.”

This is the type of thing that Hollywood really cares about, bold names.

Kimmel is said to be concerned about the jobs of dozens of producers, employees and contractors who will lose their livelihoods if the exhibition is sixth.

Disney pointed out in her statement that Kimmil was suspended because “we felt that some comments were unlimited and therefore not sensitive.” But the “studied” talks led to Jimmy’s return.

Whether you like Kimmel or not, no company can carry this type of pressure, even if it contradicts desires Donald TrumpWho celebrated the comment.

Now you are the challenge that Kimmil and Disney faced/ABC.

The suits urging Kimmel to reduce attacks against Trump. But Kimmel, who hosted the program since 2003, and insisted on Oscar hosting, has always insisted on his independence. It can be said that it is the most famous face in the network.

She played a small role last year by asking Trump about Kimmel yet Academy Awards, The candidate criticized him, and their hostility escalated. Jimmy even took criticism of me (Awal).

So perhaps with a wink and gesture, Kimmel now agreed to alleviate matters that are brought up and consent of copper to allow him mainly he says what is going on in his mind.

Jimmy Kimmel is the only clear winner of this.
