JIMMY KIMMEL IS COMING BACK!

The news just broke that Jimmy Kimmel is returning to the airwaves tomorrow ( September 23!) and while we don’t know ALL the details, we can tell you this.  One of the distributors of ABC, Sinclair, demanded Kimmel apologize and make a donation to the late Charlie Kirk’s conservative organization before they would return the show to the markets they control.  Well, our inside source on the show says Jimmy has agreed to something even better – he is inviting Charlie’s widow, Erika, to be a guest on his show so he can apologize to her for the joke, and try to find common ground – in hopes of lowering the temperature in the divided nation.  Our source didn’t know if Erika has accepted the invite to appear, but if she does, it could happen very soon.

    Yielding to pressure from right-wingers is the equivalent to throwing your money out the window to satisfy your creditors. It simply isn’t the way to approach this.

    Disillusioned conservatives are never satisfied and they rob every American of free speech by shrouding everything in shame and moral outrage. Jimmy Kimmel probably won’t make it past his next contract renewal with ABC and for what? He gave in and at the end of the day no one will be satisfied.

    Censorship used to be a communist party thing. Now it’s firmly part of the new American landscape complete with dictator images emblazoned on DC building exteriors similar to Iran. The U.S. propaganda machine has morphed into a multi-faceted effort to consolidate power, mobilize public opinion, and project influence both domestically and abroad. This is achieved through a combination of state-controlled media, social media campaigns, and the cultivation of a personality cult. Too late folks- it’s done.

    Late Night on linear TV is going the way of the dot matrix printer.
    Millennials and Gen Z’s don’t watch network tv like boomers did in the 1970’s. I now watch old reruns on youtube of Conan, Craig Ferguson for real lughs.

    Common ground? Her husband was MURDERED. That should elicit sympathy from everyone, not a sickening joke.

      We know her husband was murdered. She’s not the only woman in the world who has lost a husband. She forgave the killer. Now we can move on.

    Hi, Janet! I could definitely see Kimmel doing this. Ratings gold! So, to that end, I hope Erika Kirk responds in the positive. Also, she did say she has forgiven her husband’s killer (unlike DJT), so that should make for a robust conversation.

      Sounds like a decent solution
