    Colbert getting canned was a test. They saw they could get away with it, so now gloves are off and off Kimmel goes in one night.

    Everything they do is a test to see if they can get away with something. If they do, they ratchet up to the next horrendous idea.

      I don’t doubt they wanted to gauge reactions. I doubt ABC was part of that in any way.

        Sorry I can’t gauge your sarcasm I just watched Anne Rice bullshit. So just in case:

        When asked by Jonathan Karl at ABC News asks

        What do you make of Pam Bondi saying she’s gonna go after hate speech? I mean, a lot of your allies say hate speech is free speech

        Krasnov responds

        [I] should probably go after people like you, because you treat me so unfairly. You have a lot of hate in your heart. Maybe they’ll come after ABC.

        And a few days later an open loudmouthed and funny critic of Krasnov gets fired at ABC. No connection whatsoever.

        Whether they were or weren’t, they didn’t try to stand up and say no. That’s all the information I need.
