Lemon Drop | Censorship Is a Choice: What We Can Learn From Jimmy Kimmel's Return
Manage episode 509328281 series 3653585
Jimmy Kimmel is back on the air with record-breaking ratings, and his return says a lot about power, fear, and the price of silence. When Disney yanked him after Trump’s FCC chair attacked, it wasn’t regulation that silenced him, it was corporate cowardice. But this time, the public pushed back with boycotts, outrage, and a reminder that free speech isn’t for sale. Don breaks down what Kimmel’s return teaches us about censorship as a choice, the failure of corporate media, and why courage, not appeasement, is what really sells.
