It was only a matter of time with Kimmel.

He's not going anywhere. They're putting him on the sideline until the racial tension calms down a bit. He'll be back to his TDS routine soon. They need him too much for election season.

The hypocrisy of the cancel culture knows no bounds.

Just to be clear, this is not publicly related to his blackface at all.

He doesn't mention it, does not apologize. He says he's taking summer vacation.

He's still hosting the Emmy Awards on September 20th.

This is just a slant piece from The Hill.
Just to show how slanted news stories can be, look at how CNN addresses Jimmy Kimmel's vacation. Sunshine and relaxation.

I judge everyone today by what they did 20 years ago when it was acceptable

He deserves this. He's become unhinged since Trump was elected and he's become unbearable the past few months. His show used to stray away from politics all together and was actually pretty funny.

Also that piece of shite Bill Simmons is just as leftist. I can’t listen to his podcast anymore.

I’m really convinced that beard is a woke facehugger from the Alien franchise. I think Jimmy being funny are directly correlated with that beard and his weight.

It would be funny if Adam set up a trap for Jimmy that shoved cheese whiz down his throat and then he shaved his beard off and Jimmy wakes up from an 8 year coma in black and white Wizard of Oz style.

Jimmy: Ziggy Zaggy...Ziggy Zaggy
Adam: Jimmy, wake up Jimmy.
Jimmy: Oi Oi...Oi
Adam: Jimmy...
*Lets out an extremely loud fart*
Jimmy: Adam, where am I? When am I?
Adam: Well Jimmy, you got married, had two kids, and cried on national television over a lion getting shot.
Jimmy: Wait *belch* what?!
Adam: And that’s not even the worst of it, Jimmy. Now lay down, get yourself a beer, and have a juggie sit on your lap, because this is going to take a lot of explaining.

I agree completely. He is not permanently cancelled. He will be back to melting over Trump soon enough.

This is just a temporary timeout in the corner until this stuff blows over.

Didn't he just agree to host the next Emmys?

There are very few people more deserving of the humiliation and backlash Jimmy Kimmel is going through right now.

A few people on twitter did and then hackey news outlets ran with it.

He's taking a summer vacation. Jimmy would bend the knee and apologize if he was actually under scrutiny.

True, but this thread sucks and if the mentality displayed here is widespread among conservatives, cancel culture will never end.

You can’t hate it and want it to end then dance on the grave when it happens to someone you don’t like.

I get the whole blow up in their face take on it, but I won’t celebrate any of this shite.

How many times have you heard of a talk show host just taking off for the summer? Come on...

Wasn't he the one that hosted Kobe's funeral? This is too good. I'm guessing all those prominent AAs at the funeral who were so moved by him crying at the funeral are now changing their tune. But if only they'd have watched TV in the early aughts they would've known this already.

It would be great if he said frick it and issued an apology as Karl Malone.
