In the cesspool of late-night television, Jimmy Kimmel’s brief suspension for his vile remarks after Charlie Kirk’s murder barely registers a blip.
The self-anointed jester of Disney’s propaganda machine was yanked off ABC for a week after smearing Kirk’s suspected assassin as "MAGA."
Yet, a scorching Economist/YouGov poll from September 19-22 reveals a truth Hollywood can’t spin: 58 percent of Americans never watch Jimmy Kimmel Live, and 17 percent tune in less than once a month.
In other words, 75 percent of those surveyed don't give a damn about Kimmel.
His show’s a ghost town, and the numbers scream it.
Kimmel slunk back to his desk Tuesday, unrepentant, painting himself as a martyr under siege by President Trump’s "authoritarian" regime.
"I get many ugly and scary threats against my life, my wife, my kids, my coworkers, because of what I choose to say," he whined, sidestepping his own reckless accusation that Kirk’s killer was part of "the MAGA gang."
He backpedaled, claiming the assassin "doesn’t represent anyone" and it wasn’t his "intention to blame any specific group," despite evidence piling up that contradicts his flip-flopping narrative.
The comedian also took aim at FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr and Trump, snarling, "A government threat to silence a comedian the President doesn’t like is anti-American."
To hammer his point, Kimmel roped in Robert De Niro for a cringeworthy sketch, with De Niro playing a mob boss version of Carr.
"It seems like the FCC is using mob tactics to suppress free speech," Kimmel jabbed.
De Niro’s reply? "What the fuck did you just say to me?"
Meanwhile, 66 ABC affiliates owned by Sinclair and Nexstar have yanked Jimmy Kimmel Live from their schedules, leaving Kimmel’s dwindling audience even smaller.
The man’s irrelevance is glaring, yet he clings to his platform like a barnacle.
So why does a talentless hack like Kimmel still command a late-night slot? Whose boots did he lick to slither into that chair?
The answer’s as clear as Hollywood’s hypocrisy: Kimmel’s not there for his wit—he’s a loyal foot soldier for the Democrat machine.
In Tinseltown, you don’t need talent; you just need to bow low enough to the right overlords. Mediocrity thrives when you pander to the left’s agenda, peddling unfunny drivel while the nation changes the channel.
