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 ca

>(usually a passionate hardcore leftie) If you don't mean it, then don't say it. Your original comment can read as if you look down your nose at 'lefties' because they like the CCP.

It's clear as day, that Kimmel did not assert what Mr. Robinson's political affiliations or leanings were and are. Yet, you're insulting those who can read the words on a page. Why?

And you're ignoring that an order of magnitude more people have been killed in right wing political violence. The right is killing people, right now. You pretending that it's a right/left thing, when it clearly isn't, sp

Wow. If you haven't met folks who don't fit, or don't consider themselves aligned with the "left/right" spectrum of American politics, you're missing out. The "us vs. them" mentality is juvenile,

If you want to allow sweeping generalizations: "Left wing" kids are not brought up being taught violence is an acceptable solution to life's problems, or for the rage they may feel against others. That could be why there is a

Yes, but Roberts really doesn't want to be worse than the Taney court. Throwing out freedom of speech with the first amendment would probably put him down there.

So Hegseth should have been pulled from Fox News after laughing at jokes about Paul Pelosi's attacker, right? He should have been forced to resign in shame?

Yet, out of the small fraction of people who had heard of Mr. Kirk, it was Mr. Robinson, who was raised by republicans, in a MAGA household who resorted to violence.

Sinclair did so _after_ the FCC comments. They did not take issue with the jokes prior to the FCC head.

Mr. Kimmel is making a series of jokes about how members of the party in power are reacting, including a clip of the president not seeming to care when asked about Mr. Kirk's death.

If you _decide_ to read it that way, you can. But you'd have to be looking for something to be offended about. Given Mr. Robinson's upbringing being very similar to many MAGA, it would make sense for them to attempt to distance th

Mel Brooks had the right of it. Fascism and Authoritarianism is defeated by satire and mockery. The ideology is too outrageous to survive any such scrutiny. Why else would the administration be so afraid of a few jokes?

Where in the quote does he assert Mr. Robinson is MAGA? Everyone is attempting to distance themselves from him. The "MAGA gang" are simply doing on the most popular main stream "news" outlet in the United States.

The school shooting that Mr. Kirk lost his life to is not, "left wing violence". Unless you want to submit that most school shootings are "right wing violence" if the shooter hated public education.

Correct! He never asserted what Mr. Robinson's affiliations were to begin with. I added an edit after re-reading the comments.

Why are you are ignoring the question? You are creating a hypothetical to ignore it. Under your view, the networks, as they stand, should never have allowed him on the airwaves to begin with.

Correct, you did. You omitted the quote. If you choose to add meaning, or put words in Mr. Kimmel's mouth, that is your decision. In any case, if you think such a statement is objectionable, then you would conclude many statements made

He was raised in a rightwing household with easy access to firearms. Hating Kirk is nothing unusual. Maybe something in his conservative upbringing led him to believe violence was an acceptable action based on his hate. That's not a be
