This is an attack on free speech
— and democracy
itself. | | |
The Trump Administration
Censoring Jimmy Kimmel Has Grave Implications for the
Future of Free Speech and
Democracy | | |
On September 17, ABC announced
it had suspended Jimmy Kimmel's late-night show
indefinitely. Why? Because he dared to criticize
Donald Trump and his crew.
This is not just
about one comedian. It's about whether any American
is free to question their leaders without risk of
government retribution. Trump's administration
leaned on broadcasters to silence Kimmel — just as they
seem to have done with Stephen Colbert in July. Now,
Trump is demanding NBC cancel Fallon and Seth Meyers
too.
Free speech is
protected under the First Amendment. But authoritarian governments
always start by silencing critics in the media —
and we are watching that happen in real time.
Disney and ABC
must take a stand for democracy, not cave to Trump's
authoritarian demands. The only way to prove it is by
bringing Jimmy Kimmel back — sign the petition if you
agree! | | |

Subject: Censoring Kimmel is just the beginning. Trump wants
to control all that we watch, read, and
hear.
