re: NBC: If it wasn't for the FCC Director, Kimmel would have gotten away with it.

My thought is that they are losing too much on late night and they aren’t getting enough publicity for their other properties from it to keep eating the cost.
Exactly. Those shows are literally aimed at a dying market share.

ABC could lose its license, which is why it bent the knee.
FCC was looking at them hard.

ABC is probably happy about getting out of Kimmel's contract and this was a good reason to fire him for cause.
This is where I’m at as well.
What he said wasn’t worth firing IMO, but I think they’d just had enough and used this as a reason.

I have a feeling he's not going to be gone long. I could see him offering some sort of BS apology and then them allowing him back.
I mean Brian Stelter will need a fluffer...

ABC had to settle with Trump back in December for like $17 million for running their mouth. I doubt they felt like writing more big checks to cover Kimmels big mouth and the hot water he was about to get them in.
Especially given his ratings.
Juice was no longer worth the squeeze.

It didn’t take much for you to abandon the 1st amendment.
