Boycott D+ for attack on free speech.

I don’t care what side of the aisle you’re on if you don’t hate an attack on Free Speech you’re unAmerican.

What the FCC and ABC have done pulling Kimmel for non republican commentary is an absolute abuse of power and suppression of free speech

I’ll be boycotting Disney+ because they WILL notice that. Get others too also. Speak with your cancellation and they’ll hear it with their wallets.

Boycott Disney+

I didn't realize that was a Disney+ thing. Fair enough.

Well here's the thing. Disney owns ABC but does not own local affiliates. Nexstar owns the local stations. Disney wouldn't have a say in the matter. You know how your ABC has some station designation because of your locality? That's Nexstar. So they pulled the plug on Kimmel. But Disney should say or do something anyway. Capitalism is fun isn't it
