Will last night prove to be a turning point? Time will tell, but it seems important to mark this moment in time when, after the Trump Administration forced a late night comedian from the air, the public outcry caused a major U.S. corporation, The Walt Disney Company, to shift to a different path forward and return Jimmy Kimmel to the air. There may be consequences still for Disney and they may lose favorable votes at the FCC, but they certainly, by their response, showed a measure of backbone that we sorely need.
As for the show, you will hear much about it and see a number of clips, but I think viewing the opening 28 minutes is important. You will hear for yourselves someone who is pretty clear and directed. He is grateful to be back and reminds us of the wide range of individuals who supported his return, but he warns of the dangers that had him removed in the first place.
Here’s the opening that at this moment has been viewed - just the YouTube clip - almost 8 million times!
That made my day!
Thanks for posting. Here in NC we were not able to watch. Canceling Hulu today.
