It's more than stupid. Every media broadcast going forward is going to be heavily sanitized and Trump approved or risk cancelling. Another step toward the death of free speech and free press.
the most ironic thing is they did this to themselves just like the voters of this country, they willingly chose to live under a madman and his sycophants because they thought he'd make everything great for them and pure hell for only their enemies
A worthless existence
but the Fox News host who said all homeless people should be executed still has a job

letting a few billionaires own the media was a mistake
I could see you, but I couldn't hear you You were holding your hat in the breeze Turning away from me In this moment you were stolen...
Are we approaching late stage capitalism now?

I just went to D+ to cancel my subscription. Perfect timing. It was renewing TOMORROW. Better things I can be doing with that money than supporting enablers.
Yep make it hurt.

ESPN is also costing Disney money too. And most of their movies underperformed this year.

The Dems need to use this to wipe Fox News off the face off the Earth when they get back into the White House.

The next Dem president, if we ever have one, needs to get rid of that channel forever
How hard is it not to comment on this online? Especially making light of a death when the man hasn't been buried yet?

Yea I don't feel bad for anyone getting canceled or fired over "comments on the matter. Keep that shit to yourself.

I've always been hesitant about using that term because it was coined by a literal German Nazi (Werner Sombart). He described the Third Reich as the solution for it.

After Colbert they are just looking for excuses to end these late night shows. This joke is nothing.

This all day. Piled on to the fact they are money loser shows these broadcasters are perfectly fine pulling them.

Regan killing the fairness doctrine was the beginning of the end, Citizen's United passing the supreme court was the poison dart and the Bush Administration getting off scott free for knowingly lying to get the US into a war that only resulted justification for stripping private rights away and making very few people extremely wealthy was the critical stage the election of donald trump along with him getting away scott free for instigating an coup to over through the government and getting re-elected a second time was the terminal point. We're doomed. All because this country just flat out refuses to hold wealthy white men accountable for anything they do and thanks to their bought media network they've successfully brainwashed enough of the populace to believe it's okay for those people to do those things because the enemy, those who disagree with them, would be, are far worse.

It wasn't even about Charlie Kirk but how fast Trump had moved on when the narrative didn't fit.

You guys think Meyers is starting to sweat now? Kimmel gone, Colbert gone, Fallon the one who actually had steve bannon on his show, still fine. I don't know if the daily show has even tried to talk about this I know stewart flat out said he's tired of covering mass shootings knowing this country won't do a damn thing about them but now on top of covering this one you need to say nice things about the victim regardless of is actual stances and beliefs or you are canceled and fired. It's already happened to some folks around my area.

Right wing facism owns this country today charlie kirk, by this time next year saying anything negative about right wing beliefs will get this kind of response

Meyers is definitely starting to sweat, he was the guy who went out for ice cream with Biden.

A Closer Look is my daily news, I am lost whenever Meyers isn't on the air

Trump is fair game it's comments over Kirk's death that should be avoided.
How quickly is SNL getting cancelled? As soon as James Austin Johnson appears on screen? Will they even have the balls to do Trump skit now?

The one that's really on a melting iceberg is Jon Oliver.

One more expose about vaccines or private prison and Zaslav will yank him with the quickness.

Really fuckin' weird to defend all of this.

Trying is the first step towards failure, so just dont give it a shot and you cant dissapoint.

The media has chosen its side, and it isn't ours. Keep that in mind moving forward. Anything coming from these media sources needs to be assumed to be compromised, if not an outright lie.
The mainstream media in the US was never on the peoples side. In fact I'd say most mainstream media outlets globally aren't. They're tools of the big corporate class to control information flow to the peasant classes (aka the lower to upper-middle classes) and through that control who they elect to run the country, and they've been that for a very long time.

Oh, would you look at that. More groveling at the feet of fascism because they need a merger to go through.

In this case I'm gonna disagree. Anyone who didn't vote or voted for a sham third party candidate voted for this.

Ted Cruz Live! Cancun studio because Texans are exceptional voters.
Brian Kilmeade says to murder the homeless. Nothing.

What the fuck America.

Assassin kills a democrat congresswoman and her husband, it out of the news cycle within 2 days, meanwhile the right say she deserve it.

A maga podcaster dies, flag need to be lowered, the right doesn't want mean things being said about him, or even his own quotes to be used, and people are fired and threaten for just not caring or saying things like hate brings more hate.
Yeah, it's extremely frustrating.

Is Wednesday the night when new episodes come out?

Maybe they honestly aren't sure what to do and don't even have an episode made yet.

I thought I read the episode is delayed because the creators "had a hard time keeping up with the tight deadline for creating episodes on a brief basis" , or was that last week?

Mark my words, by the end of 2026 we're going to see one of the major networks at least attempt a late night talk show with a right-leaning host and it's either going to be some podcast hack or Greg Gutfeld
