Sound like it's a good thing this staffer is also unemployed.

These guys haven't the foggiest clue how out of the mainstream they are. The guy is actually intimating Disney is something other than radical left?

I've seen celebs and other lefties over the last week calling for people to cancel Disney+, ESPN, and Hulu subscriptions, and boycott ABC.

They're so out of touch with reality, they don't realize that would make conservatives even happier.

Jimmy fricked over his entire staff. No doubt he still considers himself one of the good guys and so moral and so empathetic while sitting on a hundred million dollar net worth.

So the staffer admitted this day was coming long before Jimmy lying about CK's killer?Interesting, and something we all knew anyway.

Anyone want to tell the staffer paying off jimmy's contract would save Disney 4 million per year.

Most of them are likely too dim to understand.

"Because it was becoming increasingly clear in recent weeks that Sir Iger and the ABC executives would cut us loose in a second if they thought something we did might hurt attendance at Disney World or cost anyone their annual bonus," the staffer said.

The old FAFO!

The FA
quote:

Even if Jimmy was willing to publicly apologize and donate money to whatever ghoulish conservative group that is demanding it... MAGA people will never be happy. It will never be enough,"


Demonize over half your potential audience, and watch your ratings decline into unprofitability.

Lie on air trying to demonize a good man.

FO
30+ affiliates threaten not to put your crap on the public airwaves.

Boss tells you to apologize and tone down your disgusting rhetoric.

More FA

Tell boss to stuff it you are going to publicly double down.

More FO

Boss takes you “temporarily off air”.

Last FA

Tell the whole world that your boss kisses Hitler’s arse.

Last FO

Well bye.

Final reaction

Claim victim hood!!!!

It was an entertainment talk show that morphed into a poltical echo chamber.

As if they ever cared about MAGA being happy? As someone else posted, the show has been crapping on and making fun of anything they view as MAGA or MAGA related.

I hope he finds another job real soon. He needs money to live on. His other skills are grocery bagging, waiting tables and driving a cab.

Amazing that you could get that much out of it. All I could get from it was "Wah! Wah! Waaaaahhhh!!"

Those people were not your audience, anyway. So why do Kimmel and his staffers give a shite about their response to anything?

Kimmel has lost 75% of his viewership in the last then years. Right about the time he got political.

Yes, and the Sinclair & Nexstar uproar meant it would lose even more.
