Because the trump administration claims to support free speech unconditionally while trying to prevent people they don't agree with from exercising that right. Hypocrites like that have no business trying to silence free speech in others, just because they dislike them.

Trump had nothing to do with his getting fired.

He was removed because he was costing ABC huge financial losses.

Freedom of speech and freedom of choice and to live our options. Putin isn't in charge in US and Trump isn't in control of me!

It’s about the first amendment. It’s about democracy. And it’s about standing up to this fake king and his corrupt government

The 1st Amendment only applies to the government, not your employee. Also we do not have a democracy, we have a Constitutional Republic. You are not knowledgeable of what you are commenting about.

Let the liberals/socialists/democrats have their little echo chamber late at night. We've got work in the morning.

Freedom of speech is for both sides, not just the right.

We have to protect everyone’s First Amendment rights, Especially if they are different from ours because if we don’t, we may be next on their list

Haven't watched late night talk since Carson. They are all nothing but political hacks anymore.

I’m glad we live in a country where Jimmy Kimmel can stay on the air, however we’ll vote with our remote and NOT watch abc17 at all.

ABC got caught in their own trap. They encouraged Kimmel until the affiliates and the public objected so they fired him. Then ABC's loyal fan base started threatening ABC so ABC folded to the pressure. The affiliate still won't air the shows, and now everyone is angry with ABC. It's called, Karma

Incidentally, our previous president has not acquired enough money to build his presidential library, not even enough money for a presidential magazine stand.

I have no desire to watch him spew lies and pat himself on the back. He's a sorry excuse of a human being.

Thee truth is hard for some to swallow. Maybe you could find a Biden or Obama clip to watch?

I didn't but have total support for the vast majority of what he has accomplished and is trying to accomplish. The country was harmed greatly by the Democrats, they plundered our wealth, Republicans also played a hand. No more.

Do a little research on how our national debt has grown under republican presidents compared to democrats. Also see how Reagan and "trickle down economics" is what put us on the path to financial ruin while creating the tremendous wealth inequality we see today.

Going back nearly fifty years, when I was in the military, and Carter was the president, the military was starving. As an E-6 with a wife and two children, legally, I qualified for food stamps. Instead, I got a part-time job. Carter, was a far better president than Obama, and Biden. Facts are tough.

You got tired of that with 8 years of Obama and 4 years of Biden. That's over, now.

Not seeing very good returns on the 5 day schedule. Are we sure 4 days are the answer. Dropping standards is never an option. You soften standards on discipline and look where it has got you. Do the hard right over the easy wrong.

One full day, for the kids to be unsupervised, in most cases, spells DANGER for them, but if it's good for the teachers, then let's do it. Teachers Unions have been so good, for so for so long, for everyone, but the children, and their parents....
