ABC has suspend 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' in the wake of Brendan Carr threatening ABC affiliates following the late-night host's comments about the suspected Kirk shooter's politics.
You good at just derailing the conversation on things that doesn’t matter regarding that issue.
The first amendement regard personal right not the right about tv national network and still it s a private corporation that fire him not the gouvernement
Those points are exactly on issue. You need to either get yourself up to speed on the conversation we’ve been having or accept that it is beyond you, but for all the patience I’ve put into this conversation I will not stand for you to just declare me derailing it to offhandedly dismiss a core point you don’t like. If you honestly think that I’m trying to pull the discussion off-course, then point out where and how, don’t just give a cowardly hand-wave and pretend to have the high ground.
As a famous politician quipped, “corporations are people, my friend”. Whether you or I like it or not, that is the current reality of constitutional rights. But it’s not just corporate actions that are being targeted, it’s specifically what Kimmel (who is a person) said. Don’t pretend that the enforcement [retribution] mechanism defines what activity is being restricted. If the government threatened to fine the company owned by anyone caught wearing a blue shirt, they are restricting people from wearing blue shirts, not owning companies. If the FCC Chair threatens to do things “the hard way” for a company that employs Kimmel because of what he said, they are restricting his speech.
Furthermore, the fact that government agents didn’t literally haul him out of the building does not absolve them of wrongdoing. Threatening someone and then pretending to not have actually done anything and that their reaction is entirely on them is a classic abuser strategy. Are you going to wholeheartedly stand behind that line of argument and claim to be in good faith? (And don’t even try to claim that people lambasting ABC/Disney for being weak enough to give in to that threat are blaming them for being threatened in the first place.)
