Late night time host Jimmy Kimmel is seemingly upset in folks on the suitable for not speeding to the protection of his fellow late night time host Stephen Colbert because the ‘Late Present’ is being canceled by CBS.
Why would anybody on the suitable defend both of those guys? They spend their complete reveals bashing Trump and folks on the suitable each single night time. It’s the premise of all of the supposed ‘humor’ on each of their reveals.
Moreover, Kimmel tries to border this as a free speech subject. It has nothing to do with free speech. Colbert’s present was reportedly shedding upwards of $40 million a yr.
Selection reported:
You’ve proven nice camaraderie with the opposite late-night hosts, particularly through the Colbert scenario. Discuss these friendships.
We’re actually shut. We grew to become particularly shut through the strike. We had lengthy, enjoyable conversations about tips on how to deal with the scenario and determined to do a podcast. Now it’s a textual content chain — a frequent one. I believe we had been all shocked and upset that this sort of factor is occurring in America, and in addition upset that we don’t see extra folks on the suitable stepping up and saying, “Hey, that is no good.” Silencing comedians, commentators, no matter you wish to name folks… I’ve to say, if Joe Biden had used his muscle to get Sean Hannity kicked off the air, chances are you’ll be shocked to be taught that I’d not assist that. I’d, in reality, assist Sean Hannity in that scenario, as a result of I assumed one of many founding rules of this nation was free speech. However folks don’t appear to care about defending it until you agree with them.
There have been stories that Colbert’s present was shedding $40 million a yr. What’s your tackle that?
I simply wish to say that the concept Stephen Colbert‘s present was shedding $40 million a yr is past nonsensical. These alleged insiders who supposedly analyze the budgets of the reveals — I don’t know who they’re, however I do know they don’t know what they’re speaking about.
Simply wonderful.
Oh, that is on the folks they freely despise on a nightly foundation. It is our fault now. https://t.co/V8pe92zzFj

It is the Republicans’ fault that the liberals who run a liberal community canceled a present hosted by a liberal that loses $40 million a yr? https://t.co/KVIYOiGSDs

How dare conservatives not defend Colbert’s proper to lose $40 million a yr insulting them nightly.
