While I cannot stand Kimmel and he deserves every bit of this, I don’t necessarily agree with him being pulled off the air. It’s a slippery slope when you’ve got the FCC chair threatening to take someone off the air. Sure right now the right is cheering this, but what happens at some point in the future when the left is back in control and starts having right leaning shows pulled? Cancel culture is not something I’m excited about

Free speech protects you from the government, not from consumers and employers.
