Under pressure from the Federal Communications Commission, Kimmel arrested the suspect who killed right-wing podcaster Charlie Kirk, who “infinitely” pulled late-night host Jimmy Kimmel out of the air on Wednesday night under pressure.
Kimmel’s pause comes after Monday night’s monologue: “We hit some new lows over the weekend, and the Maga Gang desperately tried to portray the murder of Charlie Kirk’s children as one of them and do everything possible to get political views from it.” Many read it as Kimmel, suggesting that the shooter himself was on the right.
The monologue of late-night talk show should be fun, not strict journalism. For a comedian, it is very unusual for a person to suspend, and it is obvious that if President Donald Trump’s FCC did not put a huge pressure on Disney-ABC, Kimmel would not have been suspended. (In this case, this pressure was exerted through Nexstar Media, the largest owner of the U.S. television station, which announced it would seize Kimmel’s show. Nexstar is currently awaiting FCC approval plan’s $6.2 billion acquisition.Hope to solve the problem and return to the show. ”
The entire controversy is a shocking turn in the Trump administration’s escalating war against critics and Jimmy Kimmel’s once explicitly a non-political career. After all, most of Kimmel’s career embodies a prototype: the regular American straight white playboy. What is more harmless and less controversial than this?
Kimmel started his career as a comic and radio host, and it was an approachable person. In his first major TV role as a comedy center host Win Ben Stan’s money In 1997, he surrogated with the role of schlubby and blue-collar accent, which easily balanced Stein’s learned snobby. When Kimmel becomes Men’s performance In 1999, he continued to play the same role with no doubt attitude: to hot girls and loop petitions to end women’s suffrage. In the 2000s fanaticism, this craze was avant-garde: politically incorrect, of course, but if he could only release his ID, then assume that kind of thing anyone would do.
Kimmel left Men’s performance Launched in 2003 Jimmy Kimmel live broadcast! On ABC, he called ogling but maintained his everyday Dude role. He is also away from talking about too much politics. In those years Daily performance and Corbert Report Kimmel’s biggest running gag hits on their strength and influence Simulated hatred with Matt Damon. After all, ordinary people are not a policy. They like to joke with movie stars.
When from Men’s performance Become a Walter Cronkite
Until 2017, his son had a rare congenital heart defect when he was born. At the time, the Republican-controlled Congress worked to repeal the Affordable Care Act. Kimmel lashes out with rare emotional monologue. “Before 2014, if you were born with congenital heart disease like my son, it’s very likely that your condition already exists because you already have health insurance,” Kimmel said, adding in his tears. “If your baby is going to die and it doesn’t have to be sure, it doesn’t matter how much money you make.”
Later that year, Kimmel once again shed tears for the news. Mass shooting in Las Vegas, Kimmel’s hometown. “It’s something that makes you want to throw or give up.” Kimmel says. “I don’t know why our so-called leaders continue to allow this to happen, or maybe a better question, why do we continue to let them allow it to happen?”
Suddenly, the surprise New York Magazine, Jimmy Kimmel is Walter Cronkite. Kimmel noted in an interview that his background makes it “harder to strike” when he talks about politics: Men’s performance talk [gay rights] He allowed in an inclusive way – I had some credibility.
After all, Kimmel is the embodiment of ordinary white Americans. He is the mainstream place. exist Men’s performance A few days, which means that if Kimmel was that guy, it would have to be a humorless exaggeration to laugh at the joke. Now, if Kimmel is cool about gay rights, health care and gun control, then that means you have to be a real ruthless freak to disagree with him.
Kimmel’s liberal turn brought quite a few anti-Trump jokes, all of which angered Trump. In 2018, the Trump administration reportedly made a phone call with executives at Disney, a parent company in ABC. Tell them to let Kimmel enter. Trump’s dissatisfaction, Kimmel, if anything, doubles his ace material.
“Jimmy Kimmel is – every night, he hits me and I think his rating is a bad one,” Trump tells Fox News in 2024. “He is not a talented person.” Kimmel makes an unexpected cameo in Trump’s 2024 criminal trial: Prosecutors sent evidence text messages in which Trump’s lawyers were upset by Trump’s anger when the storm Daniels appeared in Kimmel’s show. CBS fired Stephen Colbert earlier this yearTrump heard Kimmel would be next.
Now, Trump has finally managed to accomplish what he wanted to do in 2018. He used the government’s pressure to get Jimmy Kimmel out of the air.
However, Kimmel’s suspension makes him so iconic. During Trump’s first semester, he moved from his evolution from the “smug post-feminist” in the 2000s to sincere and angry liberalism, which reflects the political evolution of American pop culture, and has also experienced it. Maybe that’s why, despite the huge changes in American culture Men’s performancedespite how he is viewed with his early comedy now, Kimmel emerges relatively unscathed from the so-called cancel culture moment. He never had a serious impact on people’s careers when he recalled Geely Dance Squad or hot girls who jumped on trampolines. In 2020 He wore the old black face Men’s performance plotthis is the ending. People are more or less willing to accept his words because he says his intentions are good and his views have completely changed.
Instead, the thing that Jimmy Kimmel is on the verge of losing the show is that he says something the president doesn’t like. Kimmel acts as a mirror again, and this time, he shows us that we are lost in a moment of freedom.
