*nods* This is the biggest thing. Comedy isn't (or shouldn't) be held to the same standard as the news.

Carr and Kimmel and "jawboning" Kimmel is a friggin comedian for crying out loud. He made plenty of disparaging jokes about Biden. He probably makes more out of Trump and his goons because it is a much more target rich environment. The problem is that people take him seriously, when he's mainly trying to get a laugh. bp <part15sbs{at}gmail{dot}com> On 9/19/2025 12:20 PM, David Hannum wrote: This is where FOX News is smarter than ABC. They let Gutfield have his crap on cable where Carr or FCC can't get to them. Why should ABC allow Kimmel to do his crap on public airwaves? Do you think under Biden, any network would have been allowed to do the same towards him if there were a late-night donkey to do it? No - they pushed and got Trump banned from social media. There is even less justification for that than Kimmel. Public airwaves are owned as much by the conservative public as the liberal public. Why should alienating half the country on public airwaves be OK? Just asking . . .

I mean if they were airing porn or something that is clearly prohibited, and had been given a chance to remedy the situation and didn’t, that is one thing. This isn’t the case. Only 3.5 more years of this experiment boys.
