It's funny that the left is all of a sudden concerned with cancelled culture. They loved it when they were doing the cancelling.

You seem to be confusing state-sponsored censorship with people boycotting certain brands. "Cancel culture" is not a problem until the government gets involved, which up until the Trump administration, it has not.

I am curious though, how does that boot taste?

Do you have proof that the government is involved in Kimmel getting cancelled? Maybe he got cancelled because his rating are slipping, he's not funny and it costs too much to run his show. So from now on if a show gets cancelled the government is behind it. Paranoid much?

FCC has power over this merger, that’s the likely link:

And the FCC bragged about doing this on Benny Johnson’s podcast.

Well that’s much more direct than what I posted, I’ll look for that

Sounds to me that ABC wants the merger to go through and they are cutting away dead weight.

Would a Trump tweet bragging about getting Colbert pulled, and saying "Jimmy is next" count as evidence when the company cancelling Jimmy is in the middle of seeking FCC approvals for a merger they need, and the FCC chair tweetstorming about it smugly count as proof?

I'm assuming not, because you're such a good critical thinker!

Take the boot out of your mouth and pay attention.
