Subject: Re: ABC Axes Jimmy Kimmel
How is that statement false?

Conservatives were trying to characterize the shooter as not being one of them. Do you think they weren't?

His statement implies that the shooter was MAGA, which was obviously false from Day 0 of the murder investigation. But that didn't stop Kimmel and many others from pushing what was obviously disinformation.

Now you're going to rejoinder that there's no possible way to read into his comments Because Reasons and you're free to offer up your interpretation and opinion of the veracity of Kimmel's comments all you like, but...

1. Carr did nothing wrong, as there is an active reg on the book about reporting misinformation with respect to crime, and
2. ABC's affiliate stations said, "We're not airing this guy any longer" and were going to choose to take the business of that time slot elsewhere.

So this isn't the Big Massive Free Speech issue the left desperately needs to make it out to be.

Instead, perhaps it would be better for the left to quietly contemplate their own roles in cheering on and encouraging cancel culture and the stifling of free speech. BTW, I let your comment about 'low level officials' pushing censorship slide earlier. That was patently false, just so you know.
