I’m very upset about the censorship of Kimmel, and very concerned for the future of our country. I’m pleased that Gov. Pritzker is still keeping it real.
I’m happy to see the very engaging young men from Leo High School succeeding on a national stage. Have to look for the positive these days, and this is just great to see.
Your employer can terminate or suspend you for any speech that they feel is inappropriate. Free speech protects you from repercussions from the government not your employer.

“We can do this the easy way or the hard way… There’s actions we can take on licensed broadcasters. It’s long past the time that… Comcast and Disney say ‘We’re not gonna run Kimmel anymore… because we licensed broadcasters are running the possibly of fines or license revocation from the FCC.’”
If you believe that the federal government had no impact on the decision to cancel Kimmel then I have some oceanfront property in southern Illinois to sell you. The FCC Chairman threatened ABC just hours before the network announced that Kimmel was to be taken off the air.
