OK, here it is, the snippet of video that has Trumpland soiling their pants, the clip so shocking that ABC ousted Kimmel rather than face the legally impossible battle of defending what he said (ht @heluecht

@inthehands @heluecht ABC didn't pull the trigger on Kimmel. Station owners Sinclair and Nexstar did. They own enough ABC affiliates that their refusal to air the show going forward did the job.
Both Sinclair and Nexstar stand to benefit from the FCC under Trump relaxing ownership rules on broadcast TV stations, allowing them to become a nationwide duopoly. Nexstar is literally in the midst of a merger that requires the FCC to change the rules in their favor so it can proceed.
This is all about a bunch of corporate lackeys trying to curry favor with Herr Trump and his sidekick Ajit—Kimmel is just a pawn on the chessboard they've decided to sacrifice.

@Kadin2048 I'm reminded of the very creepy "This is extremely dangerous to our democracy" message that Sinclair made their stations read as if it had originated in each local station. That was what, 2018?
