As I warned, Kimmel gets his show back, starting tuesday
"(zh) hours after 400 artists [?] signed an aclu letter in response to Jimmy Kimmel's firing, the late-night host's 'indefinite termination' for propaganda surrounding the Charlie Kirk assassination has been turned into a week's vacation.
"according to variety, Disney and abc are bringing the comedian [sic] back to its schedule tuesday night.
[N.S.: How can you call someone a comedian who has no sense of humor? The five people who were watching his "thing" will respond, 'hey, people laugh all the time at his jokes.' That's not "ha-ha laughter," it's loyalty laughter. They don't find Kimmel, or anyone else funny. They find him a "friend," as opposed to an enemy. I first noticed this circa 2005. I was waiting for a football game on sunday, and the channel I was on broadcast some affirmative action programming, part of which consisted of an affirmative action "comedian," a youngish spanish guy who was mocking White people by doing a Godawaful "Gomer Pyle"-type routine. The crowd laughed at the talentless man's shtick. That was loyalty laughter. When this phenomenon really came in hot and heavy for me was probably in 2016. One of the newsweeklies did a long "thing" on tv comics (mainly Amy Schumer) and candidate Donald J. Trump, with long, quoted passages of their "jokes." All they did was rant and rave about how much they hated Trump. They were and are democrat functionaries, and their respective networks were making in-kind contributions to the democrat party by paying them.
We grew up on the King of Late Night (1962-1992), who was a funny man, and not a political hack. Johnny was succeeded in 1992 by Jay Leno, who is also a funny man, and not a political hack. David Letterman was once funny, as well. But in circa 2008, Letterman became an unofficial dnc staffer, who constantly insulted Sarah Palin's daughter. There used to be a rule about not attacking politicians' family members. I guess that was first broken, when comics made Martha Mitchell the butt of their jokes in the early 1970s. Letterman's degeneration into a dnc hack was the end for me.]
"'last wednesday, we made the decision to suspend production on the show to avoid further inflaming a tense situation at an emotional moment for our country. it is a decision we made because we felt some of the comments were ill-timed and thus insensitive,' the company said in a statement. 'we have spent the last days having thoughtful conversations with Jimmy, and after those conversations, we reached the decision to return the show on tuesday.
"Kimmel's show was pulled last wednesday after the host said that Charlie Kirk assassination suspect Tyler Robinson was 'maga' - when he's very clearly not based on what we know. in response, fcc chair Brendan Carr threatened to revoke abc affiliate licenses over the comments, which he described in a podcast interview with host Benny Johnson as 'the sickest conduct possible.'"
Does Roseanne Barr get her show back, too, now?
Developing...
GRA: We can go back to not watching him again.

If he had any balls,Kimmel would invite Brendan Carr on the show and Carr would have the balls to appear.

I mentioned this over at ZH, but I don't think anyone over there knew what I was referring to (anything from my era is ancient history by now): a lifetime ago, the dirtbag Smothers Brothers got cancelled for airing their Commie politics in prime time, without informing CBS of the content ahead of time. Their ratings were certainly higher than nearly anything on the air today, yet there were no protests. (People used to write letters of complaint when a show was cancelled- they sure didn't march in the streets!)
There was an article which I don't have saved online that explained why low-rated shows get kept on the air, and advertisers continue to support them, as long as they promote liberal values. It's sort of a quid pro quo system unrelated to direct financial gain, but paying off in other ways. Same with all the far-left movies that keep getting made despite huge financial losses. (Of course, enormous mega-corporations can continue to absorb such losses- especially when you have a President who doesn't believe in enforcing anti-trust laws, which would upset the totally corrupt stock market.)

NEXSTAR AND SINCLAIR STATIONS WILL NOT CARRY KIMMEL--AS OF TONIGHT
(GRA)There's an asterisk to this story.
(ZH)Note: None of the Nexstar or Sinclair affiliates will carry the show.
Despite Kimmel’s return, it is not immediately clear if his show will be available across the entire country. Sinclair, for its part, had said that it would not go back to running Kimmel’s show on its stations until the late night host apologized for his comments, met with Sinclair representatives and made a donation to Turning Point, the organization that Kirk founded. Sinclair, it should be noted, owns the ABC station in the Washington, D.C., metro area, among other markets.
Nexstar, similarly, could also choose to continue to preempt the show, though of course it would still be accessible online across the country after it runs on ABC. -Hollywood Reporter
GRA:abc noise's,Matt Gutman(you know him) reported "Kimmel is coming back",but did not mention the small print of Nexstar and Sinclair. In fact,WOTV in Grand Rapids will NOT air the show,because it is a Sinclair owned station.
As Mr.Burns would say In "The Simpsons"--"EXCELLENT."

TURNING POINT SUGGESTS TO ABC AFFILIATES--"DON'T SHOW KIMMEL."
(NY post)Charlie Kirk’s Turning Point USA is urging ABC-TV affiliates not to carry “Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ when it returns to the airwaves Tuesday.
Andrew Kolvet, the organization’s spokesman and executive producer of Kirk’s popular podcast, slammed the network and parent company Disney on Monday for “caving” and allowing the embattled late-night host back.
Kimmel’s show got yanked a week ago over shocking on-air remarks he made about MAGA supporters and Kirk’s murder.
ABC announced Monday that Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show would return Tuesday, nearly a week after the program was pulled off the air.
“Disney and ABC caving and allowing Kimmell back on the air is not surprising, but it’s their mistake to make,” Kolvet tweeted minutes after the network revealed Kimmel would be returning.
“Nextstar and Sinclair do not have to make the same choice,” he said of the conglomerates that own a host of ABC affiliates.
GRA:Exactly what's happening in Grand Rapids.

The "comedic cred" he built up with the hilarious Man Show and pre political talk show days evaporated long ago. Textbook case of how to go from an affable, mildly amusing personality into an insufferable sanctimonious buffoon.
I've seen more of Kimmel on my tv since he went off the air...like I said,we can go back to NOT watching him again.
Was this Disney's marketing strategy to make him look like a "spokesman for our times"? To get a surge in ratings(for one show,at least)? If they were in disagreement with Kimmel,he wouldn't be back.

JIMMY KIMMEL'S ANALYSIS OF ROSEANNE'S FIRING(2018):
"And ABC, to their credit, didn't waste any time; they canceled her show today. I'm not a fan of censorship, but this wasn't about free speech... it was about the consequences for saying something vile. You can say what you want, but networks don't have to pay you to say it. You can't just blame Ambien for that. Actions have consequences, and ABC made the right call." -- Jimmy Kimmel, May 29 2018 after Roseanne Barr's show was canceled.
GRA:I repeat--abc is not opposed to what Kimmel said--or he wouldn't be back. Not only that,but free speech is the proverbial "second banana" when it goes up against Whites giving an opinion on black incompetents. Kimmel MIGHT HAVE BEEN fired if he had called trannies,nutjobs.

Tonight's episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live! features "actor"/wrestler John Cena, actress Lisa Ann Walter, and comedian Oscar Nuñez as guests,
GRA:Cena,according to msm.com.,donated a million bucks to blm in 2020.
Walter,a 62 year old White,is part of the cast of "Abbott Elementary"--an abc show about a black school(Is it realistic--does she get assaulted in her classroom?)
Nunez--deport him.
Kimmel(opening):Now where was I--oh yes--republicans are all White supremacists,while us democrats are violence free supporters of the Constitution(loud laughs)and free speech(louder laughs). Now let's bring our commie guests out to talk about what a fascist Trump is. Stay tuned.

I was close...instead of,"Now,where was I..." it was,"As I was saying..."
(USA Today)Kimmel's first monologue back is nearly 18 minutes long
"As I was saying before I was interrupted … If you're just joining us, we are preempting a regularly scheduled encore episode of 'Celebrity Family Feud' to bring you this special report," he joked. "I'm not sure who ran the weirder 48 hours, me or the CEO of Tylenol."
GRA:Probably the viewer counter at Nielsen,who had to wonder why 10 lights --representing individual nationwide viewers--were blinking
for abc at 11:35 p.m.
"That's a record," said a perspiring Leslie from the Nielsen Company,"I'm not used to having to count so high for Kimmel--TEN people. WOW!"
