The chair of the FCC said:

>What people don’t understand is that the broadcasters … have a license granted by us at the FCC, and that comes with it an obligation to operate in the public interest. When we see stuff like this, look, we can do this the easy way or the hard way. These companies can find ways to change conduct, on Kimmel, or there’s going to be additional work for the FCC ahead.

Do you really want to pretend that he is no applying pressure by threatening businesses who broadcast speech he doesn't like?

So you’re telling me that, in the past 10 years, this was the only speech on network TV that the Trump crowd didn’t like?

Kimmel got caught spreading blatant falsehood about who the shooter was. That has always been against the rules for public airwaves.

		> We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them, and doing everything they can to score political points from it There's Mr. Kimmel's quote. Where did he lie? He never said what Mr. Robinson's political affiliations are or where.
