- Thread starter ziggy

Tucker has more reach now than he did under FOX....the cancelling of Tucker did not work......like at all.
Reminds me of "The Ruble will be rubble".
They have no idea what they R doing.

I think his cancellation was more about his shitty ratings than what he said. I'd say Disney et al., used his diatribe as an excuse to fire him rather than the reason and that it was those shit ratings that really got him canned.

Disney’s CEO Bob Iger and co-chair Dana Walden made the decision to suspend Jimmy Kimmel’s show after he planned to double down and go on camera to defend his lie that MAGA voters killed Charlie Kirk rather than "kowtow” to the outrage, Hollywood Reporter reports. They yanked him because they “thought that would fan the flames” as Nexstar and Sinclair affiliates dropped him.
“The advertiser calls began to roll in and then the big affiliate conglomerates, Nexstar and Sinclair, threatened to preempt the show.” This is market reaction, and not tied to FCC chair Brendan Carr’s actions.
Kimmel even planned to double down and not apologize after “Disney employees saw their emails doxxed..some even received death threats.” When “66 of the roughly 200 affiliate stations had said they would” drop him, that’s when Iger and Walden pulled the plug.
