Media Darling Jimmy Kimmel Says [bleep] You’ to Critics, Fundraises for Left-Wing Everytown

ABC’s newest entertainer turned activist isn’t backing down, after intense criticism for his recent turns at blaming the right for people dying in a shooting massacre and overturning ObamaCare.

Jimmy Kimmel is now actively seeking out media coverage of his left-wing activism, outside of what he does on his late night comedy show. In a response to an artist-critic in Hollywood, (of all places,) Kimmel took a photo of himself giving the finger to the artist, with a message calling for support for the left-wing gun grabbing group Everytown for Gun Safety.

Kimmel sent the provocative photo to entertainment media outlet The Hollywood Reporter Thursday afternoon, as a retort to ads mocking Kimmel as a “cry baby.” Along with the photo, Kimmel told THR: "I encourage all fellow cry babies to support Everytown for Gun Safety — everytown.org."

Kimmel’s response came after an artist named Sabo placed fake ads and posters of Kimmel Thursday morning on street benches across West Hollywood, in close proximity to Kimmel’s home and the ABC studios where Kimmel records his shows. The posters featured an image of Kimmel crying, made to look like Johnny Depp in the 1990 movie Cry-Baby, with the text, “The Jimmy Kimmel Estrogen Hour.”

Sabo told THR that the posters were to counter Kimmel’s gun control tirade, which he called partisan and factually inaccurate:

LOL! Another estrogen fueled tirade. Keep it up jimmie. These people continue to make asses out the themselves. Are there really that many people that watch and attend these shows? Baffling!

[KC_Conspirator]

Is he still clearing his talking points with Chuck Schumer’s office?

[Arm_Bears]

Who are Jimmy’s advertisers?

Do they support his positions?

[winner3000]

Who are the sponsors of his show please?

[gaijin]

He is not in the same tribe as us.

America’s full of Outsiders but this particular one is fundamentally opposed to the value set that established this country.

He is a consanguous MSM’er - an antennae waving INSECT.

[DiogenesLamp]

It’s good to see that Sabo is getting to the arrogant bastard.

So, Kimmell responds to something said or done to him,but criticizes the President for using Twitter. Seems Kimmel is the thin skinned one.

It not too funny when the guy is mad not in a comic way but truly angry and lashing out nightly at 60% of his quickly dwindling audience.

[originalbuckeye]

Kimble has jumped the shark. I am relegating him to the Dustin of History....along with Kathy Griffin, Meryl Streep, Jane Fonda and all the other bitter snowflakes.

[ “The Jimmy Kimmel Estrogen Hour.” ]

You should see what the bloat does to his face though.

Every snowflake is a political activist these days. With no understanding of the real world. That’s why they loved Obama. He fed them lies and it made them happy.

Never seen so many people ready to receive the Antichrist. Frankly I’m shocked so many are so willing to believe lies. Hitler rounded up all the guns too. How’d that work out? Oh yeah, millions dead in Germany, Austria, Poland and a war that cost over 50 million dead in total. Brilliant thinking, Jimmy. Just like all liberals.

I remember back when late night TV was funny. Sure they told some tongue in cheek jokes about the President or other political figures during the monologue, but it applied to all Presidents and politicians, not just one party. It was in a spirit of playfulness and fun. Remember how they never .... NEVER ... passed judgement on their audience and nobody cried or told you how to vote?

Now it's just a bunch of virtue signaling leftists who call you a dumb redneck murderer if you don't agree with them. Their "jokes" are at the expense of other Americans ... half their audience! ... that they don't agree with. Never gonna watch late nite talk again.

The last time I watched ABC was Millionaire (the Regis Philbin version) about 15 years ago.

[WKUHilltopper]

Yeah? FU back, pus%y.

[Kickass Conservative]

Jimmy, please explain what “Gun Safety” means.

Last time I checked it’s a device on a Firearm to prevent it from accidentally discharging.

Time for a “Kimmel Safety” to prevent him from purposely making a ass of himself.

[EdnaMode]

He has a segment called “Celebrities Read Mean Tweets.” He never reads mean tweets sent to himself.

Jimmy Kimmel ✔ @jimmykimmel Dear crazies: it is fascinating that 500 innocent people get shot and your anger is directed at me. Think about that

Actually, 500 innocent people get shot and Kimmel's anger and "solutions" are directed toward laws abiding citizens.

Jimmy, folks are just responding to your attacks.

Think about that.

[Obadiah]

Is Kimmel’s monthly friend visiting?

[nutmeg]

Kimmel has gone completely off the charts insane. Are his tirades helping his ratings?

[Freedom56v2]

60% of his quickly dwindling audience.
