In a shift of priorities, it appears that concerns over late-night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel overshadow those regarding the alleged murder of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk.
Jimmy Kimmel, the renowned US late-night TV host, has been removed from his show "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" by ABC. This decision was not an attack on free speech or an example of cancel culture, as some might claim.
Recent events have shown that Kimmel was not exercising free speech but deliberately spreading misinformation. Specifically, he lied about who killed conservative podcaster Charlie Kirk, falsely accusing Trump supporters of being responsible and mocking those mourning Kirk's death.
These actions led to the suspension of Kimmel's show in September 2025, following pressure from affiliate partners and criticism from Trump and the FCC. It was also revealed that Kimmel had knowingly lied about Tyler Robinson's political affiliations on his show, claiming that Robinson was living with a trans-furry and had embraced leftist ideology. However, by Monday, it was known that Robinson was not associated with the MAGA movement.
ABC's decision to terminate Kimmel's employment was due to financial losses and hemorrhaging viewers. His show had become a one-stop shop for political propaganda, and the lies about Kirk's murder and Robinson's political affiliations were the final straw.
It's important to note that the left is rewriting history about Kimmel's removal from ABC. Contrary to some claims, the termination was not met with fake outrage from Democrats, and Jimmy Kimmel's free speech is not under attack.
Despite his history of mocking Donald Trump for a decade without repercussions, Kimmel's actions regarding the Charlie Kirk murder case crossed a line. His lies and insensitive comments about a tragic event were unacceptable, leading to his termination.
In conclusion, the removal of Jimmy Kimmel from ABC was not a matter of free speech or cancel culture. It was a decision made due to financial losses and the spreading of misinformation about the Charlie Kirk murder case. Kimmel knowingly lied about the situation, and his actions were unacceptable, leading to his termination.
