Jimmy Kimmel

ABC has a contact form for show feedback. This is the message I sent:

I am writing to express my deep disappointment and outrage at the suspension of Jimmy Kimmel. By bowing to FCC pressure and silencing one of the most prominent voices in late-night television, you have chosen to cave to authoritarianism rather than stand for free expression and the independence of the press.

The role of satire and commentary is essential in a democratic society. When a corporation as powerful as Disney or a network as visible as ABC decides to muzzle one of its hosts out of fear of regulatory retribution, it sends a chilling message: that corporate interests outweigh principles, that government intimidation works, and that audiences should accept a sanitized, controlled version of reality.

You have an obligation not just to shareholders, but to the public, to stand firm against political interference. Instead of suspending Jimmy Kimmel, you should have defended his right to speak truth to power. This decision undermines both ABC’s credibility and the broader tradition of free and open dialogue in American media.

I urge you to reconsider your actions and reinstate Jimmy Kimmel immediately. Anything less is a surrender to censorship and a betrayal of the very values your network should uphold.

Indivisible also has a clicktivism form to ask your Member of Congress to support an investigation.
