      Would be a god damn shame if the next president broke up the monopoly that conglomerates like Sinclair have on local news.

    2. lol. Don’t ever let the loud mouthed losers make you feel small. We have more power than they want to admit.

    3. This shit makes me feel powerful. It should make you feel powerful too. We stood together and literally stopped the government and the media.

      “We received thoughtful feedback from … advertisers… ”

      This is the only part of this that mattered lol

      More like Disney threatened them with breach of contract, jeopardizing their access to NFL games

    6. *“received thoughtful feedback from viewers, advertisers, and community leaders”*

      Advertisers, lawsuit threats and angry viewers got them fucked up lol

    7. Hilarious progression seeing them go from pulling Kimmel, claiming they were going to show a Charlie Kirk special in the regular Kimmel time slot only to pull that special at the last minute, to now bringing Kimmel back on in the regular time slot. Jimmy Kimmel for the win, fuck yeah!

    8. ABC had them by the balls because they had the ability to pull SEC football games of the air, which may have caused a legit riot from southern Trumpers.

    9. Heh. More like they got a shit-ton of complaints for being fascists that were demanding that Kimmel give tons of money to Turning Point USA *and* the Kirk family — along with a huge public apology. ABC/Disney/Kimmel said, “NOPE.” and you didn’t know what to do. That’s because being a bully isn’t going to be the norm anymore.

    10. >“Remains accurate for the widest possible audience”

      Uh, accurate either is or isn’t. There is no catering of facts. This is just a mask off moment for them suggesting they’d rather cancel a show speaking truth in favor of an approach that bends it to keep right winger feefees in check.

      >”Our decision to preempt this program was independent of any government influence”

      They are trying so hard to kiss Trump’s ass while placating the side they pissed off. Their statement here is a bold faced lie.

      The boycott continues.

      They could only preempt it so many times before being in breach of their contract. 🤡 Fuck Sinclair

    12. Word salad mumbo jumbo bullshit. People were putting pressure on you to change course so you did. It’s not about morals or giving a shit about the content you deliver. Give me a fuckin break. 

    13. A REMINDER THAT WE STILL HAVE SOME POWER. $$$ MATTERS TO THEM MORE THAN ANYTHING!!

      They still need to feel the pain for what they did. Continue to boycott! If you do continue to watch their stations, watch (or turn on the TV for) Jimmy Kimmel ONLY to drive the point even harder that we’re not going to put up with their fuckery.

      Yeah, “thoughtful feedback” is corporate speak for “getting cussed the fuck out.”
