The view of Jimmy Kimmel after FCC seat threats
The hosts of “The View” kept silent for the second day in a row about the suspension of their parent company ABC by Jimmy Kimmel ‘Late-Night Show about his controversial Charlie Kirk comments.
In the episode of Thursday of ‘The View’, the hosts were surprisingly not touched that the Kimmel show was taken out of the air for an indefinite time. Instead, they have again achieved their Wednesday segment about the testimony of FBI director Kash Patel about the Jeffrey Epstein files. Many fans theoretized that the ‘The View’ hosts were deliberately instructed not to discuss the suspension of Kimmel by their parent company. During Friday’s show, Kimmel’s Hiatus, the biggest subject of discussion in Hollywood at the moment, no longer came up.
On Thursday afternoon, FCC chairman Brendan Carr, who was responsible for jerking “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”, The FCC also looked at “The View”.
“If you watch these other TV shows, it is interesting that the FCC has a rule that is called the rule for equal opportunities. But there is an exception to that rule called the Bona Fide News -exceptionally, which means that if you are a bona fide news program, you don’t have to comply with the rule for equal opportunities.” Said Carr in a radio program. “In de loop der jaren heeft de FCC daar een geheel van jurisprudentie op ontwikkeld en heeft hij gesuggereerd dat de meeste van deze late night -shows, anders dan ‘SNL,’ bonafide nieuwsprogramma’s zijn. Mogelijk zou ik aannemen dat je het argument kan maken dat ‘The View’ een bonafide nieuwsshow is, en ik ben daar niet zo zeker van, en ik ben daar niet zeker van, en ik ben daar niet zeker van, en ik ben daar niet zeker From, and I am not sure, and I am not sure, and I am not sure, and I am not sure, and I have still qualified as Bona programs and therefore exempt from the regime of equal opportunities that the congress has introduced. ”
If the FCC determines “the display” is not a bona fide news program, it would be subject to the rule for equal opportunities. That would mean that all political candidates and their opponents need the same time in the air on the network.
Many celebrities, reporters and politicians criticized ABC for drawing “Jimmy Kimmel Live” on Wednesday evening. The suspension is indefinite and because of Kimmel’s comments that ‘De Maga Gang’ tried to paint the murderer of Kirk as ‘something other than one of them’. Carren endangered sanctions to ABC and said: “These companies can find ways to change behavior and take action, to be honest, on Kimmel or there will be extra work for the FCC in front.” Shortly thereafter, Nexstar, who operates 32 ABC branches, refused, “Jimmy Kimmel Live” from the broadcast, and ABC took the show indefinitely.
Gov. Gavin Newsom, California, said that Republicans did not “believe in free speech” and “censoring” people in real time.
“Buying and checking media platforms. Firming commentators. Canceling shows. These are not coincidences. It is coordinated. And it is dangerous. De Gop does not believe in free expression. They censor you in real time,” Newsom wrote.
Former President Barack Obama also wrote on X that the Trump administration “threatens” media companies to silence their deviating voices.
“After years of complaining about the cancellation of culture, the current government brought it to a new and dangerous level by threatening regular regulatory action against media companies, unless they repeat reporters and commentators in the Klaveren or dismiss,” Obama wrote, adding that ABC’s Springsuiting of Kimmel “Trumps” “wrote Trumps.”
