Ya'll would agree that cancel culture sucks, right? We should support free speech, right?
The orange traitor cancelled Colbert (his handlers arranged it), and tried to cancel Kimmel, Meyers, and Fallon.
He's called for firings of specific journalists, such as Katy Tur and Sopan Deb. He's encouraged boycotts of news organizations and other companies he disagreed with. He's also managed to get millions from them in frivolous lawsuits. He's revoked the press pass of CNN correspondent Jim Acosta and has threatened others. His campaign also denied or revoked credentials for journalists from outlets like Mother Jones and VOA covering his events. He's applied stricter rules regarding press access effectively stripped access from dozens of reporters, including nearly all White House correspondents for The Washington Post at one point, and a majority of the Pentagon press corps.
He (his handlers again, as part of the published transition plans, destroyed a lot of government media, very early in the presidency. An executive order put hundreds of journalists and staff at the U.S. Agency for Global Media (USAGM) outlets like Voice of America (VOA) and Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty (RFE/RL) on administrative leave, effectively dismantling the organizations and threatening the jobs of thousands.
He's filed numerous defamation lawsuits against news organizations, including The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and ABC, which press freedom groups view as an escalation of attacks on press freedom. His administration also secretly obtained phone records of New York Times reporters as part of a leak investigation. His administration also cut funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which supports NPR and PBS, two of the most important US institutions.
He also ordered government agencies to cancel subscriptions to Politico Pro in retaliation for negative coverage. He often labeled news organizations the "fake news media" and "enemy of the people," which press freedom organizations and journalists say created a hostile and potentially dangerous climate for reporters. Part of what has made America 'Great' is the First Amendment and press freedoms. Many countries don't have that. The Trump admin's manipulations and hostilities have effectively cancelled or reduced the activities of numerous individual journalists and entire news bureaus across various news outlets, which has been an attack on free speech and the freedom of the press. It's anti-American. It's treason.
The other examples side, Colbert's show being cancelled isn't cancel culture IMO. The TV companies go where the money is, and Colbert just wasn't bringing in the viewers to justify the budget anymore.
His show has been one of the most popular programs on that channel for years
Though most viewers probably watch him via youtube or social media, he still has high TV ratings for a TV night show, and high ratings compared with other ABC programming:
The ratings for all the shows are terrible so Kimmel will get fired eventually too. They should put the shows on streaming. These late night shows are traditionally something for people to fall asleep to and people will always like things like that.
Yeah - socks wrote like that. But he was not the only one. You obviously agree with every word of it. Awesome. (If you remember Saidit, you'll know I'm not socks.)
Socks came later than 2018, as you claim to be from. You said you used many aliases over the years, like socks. So far you haven't offered one for us to relate to.
Dude. When or where did I say I used many aliases or a socks alias? You want me to be socks, I see your interest in that, don't make up stuff. My last username, long ago, was a cartoon dog. Now run along outside and play.

Paramount has billions of dollars, so you should keep my show on the air even though I'm unfunny and unwatchable.
He's being political instead of being funny. It is about as funny as watching CNN attack Trump.
And people say he's not funny.
The actor who became his character because he didn't have his own personality to return to.
His show was losing $40 million a year.
That's why it was cancelled.
It's nothing more complicated than that.

Ratings ain't what they used to be.
How about a list of Biden's sins?
Nice essay socks the globalhomogenous. I'll prompty put it in the round file. Smoke nuts.

Don't use AI please
I tried to read it for a bit.. but all I came up with is that you masturbate thinking about Colbert circa 20 years ago.
Freud would say that forums like this are masturbating groups, so don't feel bad. Totally natural.
I seen you. I wonder if Im allowed to call you a faggot on this site.
See the note above about free speech. We love free speech.
We should censor AI speech tho

You melt down a lot like socks too 😂
Not really. Socks would right long paragraphs of retardation.
That's what dog is doing tho
He did it like once. I don't think it's worth starting a witch hunt over it.
Did it more than once, not a witch hunt, just discussing facts.
That paragraph was a long politic analysis, not a long sensitive meltdown.
LOL. So you're HongKongPhooey.
Good to see you!!! Been a long time.
You said it. I didn't press it until now, to either expose socks or find out you're not socks.
I never said that. I said that socks also used several aliases, as you did. I never thought that magnora7 was fair to you.
I'm thrilled you're here.
LMAO look at you caring about the neoliberal-installed blue team talking heads versus the neoliberal-installed red team talking heads.
I do think they should just fire him but keep the show with someone funny
Anyone funny carries the risk of offending somebody in their audience, and the TV industry is populated by cowards.
