Jimmy Kimmel pulled from the air over false comment about Kirk murder

[andy06shake]

I was a bit surprise that the liveview numbers were still so strong, actually. I'd expected lower in this day and age. Although the 45+ demo skew is pretty much what I expected. Truer numbers cost more money, so I wouldn't expect to see objective accuracy, not like I would expect that from the Post anyway. Also interesting to see some outlets touting Google search trends for "what time is kimmel on" as some sort of indication of strength, rather than an indication that liveview tv is an anachronistic vestige that requires controversy to even be tangentially relevant to the young.


I do not really give a shit. I do care about people, though, and what they find relevant to their lives.

End of the day, money is what it's all about.

Sad but true fact.

And subscriptions and views equate to profit.

If Disney/Hulu/and the rest, were not making a pretty penny off the fellas' back.

They simply would not have brought the show back.

As to what constitutes Liveview TV and the direction headed.

We could argue about that from now to next Tuesday, it would not change much or the fact that traditional TV is going ther way of the dinosaurs.

Hence more independent and less under the thumb speech is more likely.  The money thing will always be there because everyone needs to make a living somehow.

Imagine Colbert and Kimmel and Stewart having one night time show and bouncing ideas off each other.

Yes .. imagine all that bias and bloviating in a one hour shot.
It would Trump and MAGA a run for their money in the bias and lies department.  
Same/same.

If only we were flies on the wall of Kimmel's legal team's office, huh?

Well you guys are like flies on something.

Flies are pollinators, if we were flies we'd be pollinating the truth from flower to flower.

I'd rather be a fly on something, then have my head up Trump's brown mashed cheeseburger ass.

 You are almost right, it would give Trump and MAGA the anger and energy to try to sue them, and lose...because 'freedom of speech'.

I actually meant like flies on shit.

I believe Trump is suing ABC. Well, threats anyway: https://www.usatoday.com/story/entertain...320953007/

Yes, he did say that. He's all threats and any lawsuit about his lies about the shooter being a leftist radical will be countered and show him up for his lies to push his agenda by the psychologists who actually know something about what the problems are with the young men of the U.S.A. on both sides. The same with the Epstein Files release, he never sued Michael Wolff because all would be revealed in court.

We all knew what you meant, and I meant one's head so far up Trump's ass that you would have brown face and then fair game for ICE.
