All of the foaming at the mouth by the usual suspects is a waste of foam.

Disney was just waiting for a chance to pull the plug on a show that nobody watches anymore. Re-runs of ‘Bambi’ would likely do better audience wise.

Don't worry, Kimmel, the no talent clod, can always buy another trampoline and a camera.

Kimmel was on the way out either way. Carr just gave the Left ammunition to scream censorship and try to make Kimmel a free speech martyr.

FCC regulations that prohibit news distortion or a hoax.

Wait, what?? Has The FCC ever heard of the Steele Dossier?

Perhaps but I doubt Adam Corolla will take him back.

Network broadcasting. CNN can still lie through their teeth.

The Sinclair TV stations wanted Kimmel out. They are the ones who own the FCC license.

These are local tv stations that rely upon advertising from the local businesses in their broadcast area.

The local stations do not want to upset their local advertisers by having a degenerate like Kimmel being aired to their customers.

Well Bambi would be funnier.

Now the Dems are foaming at the mouth that the cessation of Jimmy Kimmel’s show was a violation of his First Amendments rights. They have sponsored a free speech bill.“It’s repulsive, repulsive that the Trump administration is perversely using this awful death to supercharge their long-standing campaign against political opponents,” said Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer. North Dakota Sen. Kevin Cramer told reporters that he wasn’t concerned that a “veiled threat” from the FCC may have led to ABC’s suspension of Jimmy Kimmel.

“If that’s what scares off ABC, maybe they need a little bit of a scare,” Cramer said Thursday.
