"Actually what he said was not factually correct." It doesn't have to be.

Carr and Kimmel and "jawboning" Actually what he said was not factually correct. He said that all the maga crowd was trying to convince everyone that the shooter was on the left when he was actually a maga supporter. This was Monday after it was already widely known what his affiliations and reasoning were. It was a blatant lie disparaging more than half the country. Tuesday he came out and doubled down. Wednesday, after the execs at Disney had a call and asked what he was going to say, and he told them, they decided to pull the plug. Around the same time, possibly a bit before, the affiliate owner decided to pull the show from their stations. Carr never sent a letter, he made a comment on a podcast that the would review it as they were subject to terms of their broadcast license. But just as a reminder: Roseanne Barr – Fired by ABC/Disney and her hit show Roseanne canceled overnight in 2018 after one tweet. Hundreds of cast and crew lost their jobs. Gina Carano – Fired from The Mandalorian in 2021 for social media posts that didn’t fit the Left’s politics. Dropped by her agency too. Megyn Kelly – Fired by NBC in 2018, her morning show canceled after comments about Halloween costumes. Dave Chappelle – Netflix employees staged a walkout and demanded his comedy special be pulled for “transphobia.” The Left tried hard to cancel him. Joe Rogan – The Left pressured Spotify to drop him, running coordinated campaigns and advertiser boycotts over COVID discussions. Tucker Carlson – Taken off Fox News in 2023. Liberal activists bragged about advertiser pressure campaigns that helped force him out, costing thousands of downstream jobs. Parler – Apple, Google, and Amazon colluded in 2021 to wipe the entire platform off the internet. Tens of thousands of small creators and businesses lost income overnight. J.K. Rowling – Blacklisted from events, attacked by activists, and pressured out of projects for speaking her mind. Mike Lindell – MyPillow pulled from major retailers, banned from Twitter, and targeted with advertiser boycotts. Alex Jones – Simultaneously banned in 2018 by YouTube, Facebook, Apple, and Spotify. Coordinated erasure celebrated as a model for censorship. Patterns are clear: Coordinated advertiser boycotts. Public celebrations of people losing jobs and businesses. Two sets of rules — the Left can lie (Russia hoax, Covington kids smear, Jussie Smollett, etc.) and laugh about it, but the Right gets destroyed.

They were ready to big flex and got benched. I wish I could make memes, it would be Carr strutting up to the door with some XXSmall condoms in his hand, chest all puffed out and the door opening to that meme image of the girl on the couch surrounded by a bunch of black dudes, but the black dudes would be the advertisers and the girl would be kimmel. Ironically, capitalism won here, the advertiser money got pulled because the content offended their target customers on a program that was on its dying breath anyway (dipping close to the 1m viewer threshold and down 70% in prime demo from peak), so the production got suspended. Realistically it was coming sooner than later anyway The people most angry about this want to eliminate capitalism and replace it with whatever -ism is hot, which gives you what? STATE RUN MEDIA You cant make this shit up, even if you smoke meth. You could hit that glass pipe, and come up with it, but when you went to tell tweaker Tommy, hed be like "Yeah man, thats not new, its already happening" snake eating its tail shit, its so HAWT On Fri, Sep 19, 2025 at 7:42 AM Ken Hohhof < [email protected] > wrote: https://www.wired.com/story/brendan-carr-isnt-going-to-stop-until-someone-makes-him/ -- AF mailing list [email protected] http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list [email protected] http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list [email protected] http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list [email protected] http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
