Jimmy Kimmel Says Net Neutrality Repeal “Despicable”
Deadline ^ | December 15, 2017 | Greg Evans

Posted on 12/15/2017 10:15:08 AM PST by EdnaMode

Put the axing of net neutrality on Jimmy Kimmel’s naughty list, just below the defunding of affordable health care. Calling the FCC’s repeal of Obama-era net neutrality rules “absolutely despicable,” Kimmel said on last night’s Jimmy Kimmel Live that the actions of the Ajit Pai-led FCC were in opposition to the wishes of 83 percent of Americans.

“I just want to say thank you President Trump,” Kimmel said. “Thanks to you and this jackhole you appointed to run the FCC, big corporations are about to take full control the internet. So merry christmas everybody!”

Kimmel also took the opportunity to remind viewers that today (Friday) is the “last day maybe ever to enroll for health care under the affordable health care act.”

And, he added, “once net neutrality’s gone, we might not even have WebMD anymore.”

Kimmel directed viewers to healthcare.gov to enroll.

Check out Kimmel’s slam above.

I thought late night hosts were suppose to be funny and calm people down after a long day? I don’t remember Johnny Carson going on a political rant in the 25 years I watched him

There is no government program or regulation too obtrusive, too overreaching, too expensive, too wasteful, too unconstitutional, or too ineffective for liberals to call for an end to. To them the biggest problem in the US is that there is just too much freedom.

Like I ask liberals everywhere.

Obama put in the “net neutrality” regulations in mid 2015.

So basically, we are going back to early 2015 internet.

What was so wrong about 2015 interest that makes you so upset?

Wrong as usual Jimmy.

83% of the electorate is too dumb to come in out of the rain.

3 weeks ago, 95% of Americans had no idea what net neutrality was, much less could they cogently explain in.

They are in hysterics now because some “website” told them they should be.

3 weeks from now, the will be back to not caring and still not having any idea what the fake outrage was about.

Jimmy Kimmel has opinions about a lot of things he knows nothing about.
