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

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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?
