Jimmy Kimmel’s under fire for a divisive lie he told on his Monday night show. That fact is undeniable.

Now the country is in an uproar over Jimmy Kimmel being benched from his show. Is the government shutting down free speech? Or is Jimmy Kimmel’s firing a result of free market forces?

I admit that I started preparing for this episode from a defensive position. I’m so sick of Democrats for showing such dark and evil responses to the murder of Charlie Kirk. Kimmel was just one of many. That stands - I’m horrified by anyone who celebrated or made fun of Charlie and his wife Erika. I’m disgusted by everyone who said things like “no one deserves to die but he was a horrible person and a racist and a fascist.” It’s just gross and disappointing.

But the argument over whether or not Jimmy Kimmel’s cancellation poses a first amendment threat at first had me thinking that this was no rights infringement at all. It was, in my opinion, a simple case of the free market speaking - a business decision to nix Kimmel based on bad ratings and public backlash that would affect advertising revenue.

After spending the day digging around, I still believe that this was a business decision. But I’ve also seen that there’s more to the story. I wouldn’t be honest if I didn’t take all of it into consideration.

So tonight I’m gonna go through a timeline of events and bring up some facts that haven’t quite hit the social media arguments just yet.
