Some of her quotes…
“It’s a great honor to be part of the team that gets under Trump’s orange skin night after night. ”
“Let’s not wait for your kid’s face to get blown off by an assault weapon for you to take a stand on them. #BanAssaultWeaponsNow”
“Thank you, grand jury for indicting him two hours before we shoot tonight's show.
@JimmyKimmelLive”
“I LOVE that we got under his thin orange skin.”
“I’m sounding the alarm on abortion rights.”
“Just your friendly reminder that 147 Republicans voted to overthrow our election and they probably shouldn’t serve our democracy anymore. #vote”
“If you thought that last election was stolen you should definitely protest by banning this next one.”
“I wish the secret service had let Trump storm the Capitol like he wanted. He’d be in jail where he belongs.”
“Shout out to all the moms suppressing their despair in front of their children. We are the violinist on the Titanic.”
“I wanna angrily step over shrubs with Elizabeth Warren and her starter earrings until we get ALL the rights”
“Mother’s Day Gift Guide: Reproductive rights and stop being dicks to our LGBTQ kids.”
And how does that prove that she's "crazy woke" or controlling Kimmel's opinions?
Tell you what, post the statements Charlie Kirk has come away with?
And we will make assumptions as to his mental state and political leanings.

She has creative influence as co-head writer and executive producer.
But she is not personally liable for what airs.
Let it sink in, networks like ABC, assume legal responsibility, backed by compliance, standards, and legal teams.
Creative leadership does not equal personal liability.
And it's the network, not the individual, that is legally accountable for the content they broadcast.
In 1995, Amedure's family filed a negligence lawsuit against The Jenny Jones Show, Telepictures, and Warner Bros. Represented by Geoffrey Fieger, Amedure's family alleged that producers of the show "ambushed" Schmitz through the revelation of a same-sex crush and that they should have known the segment would result in violence. In May 1999, the jury awarded the Amedures $29,332,686.

This is what is considered to be part of a “normal executive producer”.
So
McNearney Failed as show management to act as a stop to keep the show from being suspended by ABC where affiliates refused to air an episode.
Or McNearney as co-head writer didn’t care her husband was going to piss off affiliates because of political bias.
Take your pick.
Again, your claims misrepresents the situation.
Kimmel’s show faced affiliate pushback over the controversial segment, but the show's suspension was never imminent.
McNearney, as co-head writer, is not responsible for affiliate decisions.
Those are network-level choices, and that's just a fact.
Editorial decisions involve multiple layers WallFlowerActive, not a single writer.
Assuming her actions, or her husband's political views, directly threatened the show oversimplifies the entire matter.
Late-night shows routinely feature satire that might irritate some affiliates.
But networks weigh audience, ratings, and legal standards before pulling episodes or putting them back on air.
Blaming McNearney personally is misleading and ignores the larger operational context.
This is about money, revenue, and subscriptions, and those decisions simply don't involve McNearney.

You mean management of a show that is responsible for its production is legally liable for its content.
Only a crazy woke person would argue otherwise.

Who do you think wrote the monologue?
Jimmy? LoL
He only reads what’s on the prompter during his monologue.
As head writer, she absolutely wrote/cowrote and greenlit the words he said.
It’s her job as head writer and executive producer.
I’ve been encouraging anybody here to quote Charlie Kirk in context.
Still no takers.
We know why.

Here is another Liberal asshole that needs to shut his damn mouth.
Keith Olbermann.
https://www.foxnews.com/sports/ex-espn-s...ive-pundit
Quote:Former ESPN host Keith Olbermann appeared to make a threat toward CNN conservative commentator Scott Jennings on Monday in a series of since-deleted social media posts.
The posts were screenshotted by Townhall columnist Dustin Grage. The posts showed Olbermann directing vitriol toward Jennings nearly two weeks after Charlie Kirk was assassinated at an event on the campus of Utah Valley University.
"You’re next motherf---er," he wrote. "But keep mugging for the camera."

That case involved real provable harm Vermilion.
The guest was murdered after a segment ambushed him, and the jury found the producers negligent in a ""court of law.""
That's somewhat legally different from a writer or producer being blamed for complaints over political satire, as any lawyer will tell you.
The networks retain ultimate legal responsibility for what airs, backed by compliance and standards teams, again, just a fact.
You don't have a shred of evidence that shows McNearney personally caused harm or legal liability, unlike the Jenny Jones producers, i may add.
Apples and Oranges at best.

It was just an example of how producers will in fact be sued and hauled into court for the content they produce.
That jury decision ended up getting overturned but it ruined her show.
Apple and oranges maybe but only because Kimmels show was on life support prior to his speech.

I wonder if this is related:
Quote: BREAKING: Due to our oversight efforts, GOOGLE commits to offer ALL creators previously kicked off YouTube due to political speech violations to return to the platform.
BUT THAT’S NOT ALL.

Late-night TV, never mind the rest of it, is on "life support" Vermilion.
Simply because the world spun, and they refused to catch up....
You know if they tell somebody they can't have something, they will only want it more, right?
End of the day it's simply all about money.
