  1. I hope Kimmel doesn’t concede to any of Sinclair’s ridiculous demands

  3. I have no problem deleting our Disney and Hulu accounts.

  4. If he’s not officially fired then, hopefully he tells them to shove it.

  5. Yea it’s called pay me the money you owe me and fuck off.

  7. *Asses talk show’s future

    Kimmel has all the leverage here, I think. Iger stepped on his own dick in an extremely public way, I don’t think he has many bargaining chips here.

  8. They should be meeting to offer their abject apologies for rolling over for the syphilitic orangutan rather than backing their employee.

  9. Pretty sure he has more than enough money to tell them to tongue his b-hole.

  10. “Kimmel asked to tone down rhetoric, unite nation”

    lmao

  11. This is a result of people cancelling their subscriptions, cruises, vacations to Disney. This is how we get them to realize their fuck ups.

  12. It’s crazy that this week was the week we started to pretend to have a problem with “liars”.

  13. It might make sense to move him to Hulu or Disney +. At least that way he wouldn’t be subject to the whims of the affiliates.

  15. He should tell Disney to tell Sinclair and Nexstar to gargle his nuts.

  16. So pretty much they must have seen all the canceled subscriptions

  18. >Disney asks Kimmel to tone down rhetoric, unite nation

    Why are we holding talk show hosts to a higher standard than the president?

  19. Just canceled my Hulu subscription after over a decade and a half of being a customer. 

    Fuck them. 

  21. Cancel Disney for their betrayel of Free Speech, the American Constitution, and bending over to our totalitarian president.

  23. Too late. I already canceled Hulu and Disney Plus.

  25. Boycott Sinclair, DIsney and any other company that is not in the middle, if they don’t like Trump being made fun of we cannot have any right channels (talking to you CBS) that make fun of democrats,. War.

  26. Keep cancelling Hulu and D+ everyone!

    It’s working!

    And then they’ll offer you really good deals to come back once they’ve done what was right.

  27. Cancel all this s*** and just learn how to use torrent sites and VPN.

  29. And just watch all that money shift when he finds a new place and god forbid he really is protected from spineless executives. I wonder if the right is creating a moment outpacing Kirk’s legacy as we speak. The more you tighten your grip, more will slip past your fingers.

  30. Id rather see him go on his own like tucker carlson (not that tucker is a comedian or funny or talented or insightful) than waver in principle. 

    He could throw together a team of writers, make his own production team and be up and running by the end of the week. Its probably never going to happen because he does TV shows which is outside that area, but I want people to see that there is independence, marketability and options outside of the mainstream, when youre ejected by GOP unconventional aggressions simply for not bowing down. 

  31. This not an entertainment issue anymore. This a law issue .

  33. I think all the late night guys should just pool together and make a studio and host their own late night shows on streaming like YouTube or something.

  35. Disney is so fucked and is so short sighted. First he didn’t say anything bad or controversial about Charlie Kirk. Sorry MAGA, he didn’t. 2nd, Kimmel is protected under the first amendment. There is no court anywhere in the US which is going to side with Disney on this. Period. If Disney were smart and was managed by smart people (spoiler alert: they aren’t), they would settle immediately with Kimmel and give him, his staff etc any payout they rightfully deserve. If this goes to court it’s going to be really really hard for Disney to say what they did to Kimmel wasn’t discrimination. There be a many Harvard attorneys who would love love to kick Disney’s teeth in with this.

  36. Kimmel should just take his show online. Fk the networks and the fascies.

  39. I surprised the various unions representing the entire staff of the show (and colberts) haven’t called for a strike. They could grind the entire communications industry to a halt. Scripted shows, news shows, game shows etc all use union members.

    It would obviously hurt a lot of individuals, as every strike does, but not doing anything about it will eventually cost many many jobs over time.

  40. Canceled my Hulu and ordered Bob’s burgers dvds since that’s really all I watch on there.

  41. No thanks ABC and Disney. You’ve shown your colors.

    I loathed you to begin with.

  43. I cancelled my Disney+ and I’m not even from the US – and not gonna go back to them, they are cowards.

  44. I cancelled Hulu today and was extremely surprised to see that it had crept up to $18/month. Good riddance 

  45. I wonder how many people dropped Disney+, I canceled it as soon as I heard.

  46. I think Kimmel should take a SAG representative and his agent with him. If Disney tries to jerk him around SAG should shut down production on every show.

    Screenwriters guild should join them!

    Disney wants to fuck around they can find out what it gets them.

  47. Ohhh did they see everyone cancelling and selling the stocks? F outta here Disney! 

  49. They’re demanding that he give an on air apology to MAGA and Trump for “defaming” them.

  50. Too late.

    Even if they let him back, we’ve seen their true, cowardly colors.

    Fuck ABC and Fuck Disney.
