• 0:02
  Speaker 1: It's time for Donkey of the Day.
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: Donkey.
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: I'm a Democrat, so being Donky of the day is
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: a little bit of a mixed but like a donkey
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: the other day, bitch you Now, I've been.
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: Called a lot of my twenty three years.
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: That donkey of the day is.
• 0:19
  Speaker 3: A new one.
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: Yes, Donkey Today for Thursday, September eighteenth, goes to ABC. Now,
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: if you haven't heard, ABC announced that it's pulling Jimmy
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: Kimmel Live off air indefinitely. This comes after threats from
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: the chairman of the FCC to the stations that carry
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: the show and supposed backlash to comments Jimmy Kimmel made
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: this week about the murder of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Now,
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna be honest with you, I didn't even hear
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: anything about these comments until yesterday when they suspended Jimmy
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: Kimmel indefinitely. Can we go to CBS News for report please.
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: ABC have suspended Jimmy Kimmel's late night show indefinitely over
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: comments that he made on his show Monday night about
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: Charlie Kirk's death.
• 1:00
  Speaker 4: It's new lows over the weekend with the Magga Gang
• 1:03
  Speaker 4: desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk
• 1:07
  Speaker 4: as anything other than one of them, and everything they
• 1:10
  Speaker 4: can to score political points from it.
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: The suspension comes after Next Star announced that its ABC
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: affiliates would preempt Jimmy Kimmel Live. Next Star called the
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: comments quote offensive and insensitive at a critical time in
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: our national political discourse. A spokesperson for ABC said quote
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: Jimmy Kimmellive will be preempted indefinitely. Today. Federal Communications Commissioned
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: Chair Brendan Carr blasted Kimmel's remarks and said the FCC
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: has quote remedies it could look at. Next Star currently
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: has a major merger before the Trump administration for its
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: proposed acquisition of Tegna. Jimmy Kimmel has not commented.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: Now if from understanding this right, people are upset because
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: he's implying that the shooter was mad. Understandable. I haven't
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: seen anywhere with a guy identifies as Maga, But to me,
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: that should be neither here nor there. What's the difference
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: between Jimmy KIMMEO saying the shooter was Maga and all
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: those folks on the right assuming the killer Tyler Robinson
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: was a raging left lunatic. Okay, it's the same exact
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: energy and exactly why partisan politics have no place in
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: an institution like the FCC, Because if someone on the
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: right gets on Fox, Dues or any of these conservative
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: platforms and blames the left before the shooter is even caught,
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: the FCC says nothing. Okay, they were talking heads on
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: all the news platforms blaming the left, and nobody said anything,
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: but Jimmy Kimmeo comes out, makes the statement he makes
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: about the murderer being one of them, and I put
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: one of them in their quotes, and ABC suspends them.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: ABC is taken out a page of Paramount's book and
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: just kissing the ring. Okay.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: Nextstar Media Group owns a bunch of ABC affiliates, and
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: they are in the middle of a six point two
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: billion dollar merger with media company Tegna, and they will
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: need the FCC's approval of the merger. It's the same
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: exact play as sky Dancing Paramount. I know all that
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: this is going on, but could you at least try
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: to make it a little less obvious. I mean, FCC
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: Chairman Brendan Carr was on Bennie Johnson's podcast, and he
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: literally threatened federal action against ABC affiliates who carried the
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: show listen.
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: Should they have a license granted by us at the FCC,
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: and that comes with it an obligation to operate in
• 3:26
  Speaker 5: the public interest. And we can get into some ways
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: that we've been trying to reinvigorate the public interest in
• 3:30
  Speaker 5: some changes that we've seen. But Frankly, when you see
• 3:33
  Speaker 5: stuff like this, I mean, look, we can do this
• 3:35
  Speaker 5: the easy way or the hard way. These companies can
• 3:38
  Speaker 5: find ways to change conduct, to take action frankly on
• 3:43
  Speaker 5: Kimmel or you know, there's gonna be additional work for
• 3:46
  Speaker 5: the FCC ahead.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: You know, for an administration that doesn't like being labeled authoritarian,
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: they damn show do a lot of authoritarian things. Okay,
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: serious question, y'all are saying you're doing this in defense
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: of Charlie Kirk. Do you really believe Charlie Kirk, who
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: went on college campuses all the time, debating people of
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: all walks of life, that was his thing to do
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: you really believe he would support you canceling people for
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: exercising their free speech. Of course he wouldn't, but you
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: all aren't doing this because you're supporting Charlie Kirk. You
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: are using the death of Charlie Kirk to push your
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: own political agendas. It's actually disgusting.
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: If you cared about Charlie Kirk for real, and you
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: were the Christians you claim to be, and I put
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: Christians in their quotes too, Okay, if you were the
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: Christians you claim to be, you would be looking at
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: the signs God is trying to show you, and the
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: signs God is trying to show you is having real
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: discussions about gun violence, real discussions about common sense gun
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: reform in this country. I said this last week and
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: I will say it again. I am too a all day,
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: but I'm also for common sense gun reform. Charlie Kirk said,
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: are his words, a certain amount of gun depths are
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: worth it to have to right to bear arms? I
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: ask a simple question in the name of the debate,
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: Jolly Kirk champions, is it worth it when the gun
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: deaf is you? Is it worth it when the gun
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: deaf is someone you love? MAGA Conservatives, why are you
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: avoiding that conversation? Why are you avoiding that debate? Okay?
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: Charlie Kirk got murdered while he was discussing gun violence.
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: If that's not a sign from a higher power that
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: maybe we should be having a conversation about gun violence
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: and commisants gun reform, then I don't know what is Okay, Maga,
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: I am disappointed in you. Okay. When did y'all become
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: such snowflakes?
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: All right?
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: You were the anti cancel culture party, the party of
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: free speech. Okay, you hated the woke left, and now
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: y'all the party that needs some sleep. Okay, how do
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: you not recognize your own hypocrisy in this situation? Salutor,
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: My guy Andrew Shoultz he posted something this morning I
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: totally agree with. He said, the left will say fascism
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: is wrong unless you kill one of our political opponents,
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: then we'll celebrate it. The right will say cancel culture
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: is wrong unless you canceled it shows of our political opponents,
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: then we'll celebrate it. That is absolutely accurate of where
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: we are as a country. And as my guy Ted
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: Ryan used to always say, you have a right, you
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: have a left. But most of us are in the
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: exhausted majority. Okay, we tired, Okay, we are tired of
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: the partisan politics because while Dems and Republicans and positions
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: of power and government do petty little things like this
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: to each other. The people suffer, and networks like ABC.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: I don't understand how you expect to get taken serious
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: when you bend the knee to an authoritarian strategy. You
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: already paid Trump fifteen million because of the defamation suit
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: he filed against George Stephalopolis. Why hepepen out the name stuff?
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm talking about. You know what I'm
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: talking about. Okay, snuffle upfagus. Now you're suspending Jimmy Kimmel
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: in definitely because he made comments about Charlie Kirk when
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: you know the real reason you suspended him is because
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: you need the FCC to approve this merger between Nextstar
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: Media Group and Tagna. Listen man, People who aren't proponents
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: of free speech don't want a dialogue. They want a
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: dictatorship of their own ideas. But the way I'm watching
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: all these media companies and institutions bowed down to the
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: Trump administration, I'm convinced America just wants a dictatorship. Period.
• 7:20
