Conservative broadcaster Sinclair is putting Jimmy Kimmel Live! back on the air. In a statement today, Sinclair said it will end its preemption of the show on its ABC affiliates starting tonight, even though ABC and owner Disney haven’t accepted its request for an ombudsman and other changes.

    Thanks to the outrage over Jimmy Kimmel, John Oliver yesterday was able to broadcast a 40 minutes rant against Netanyahu and its genocidal actions calling him “this fucking guy”. Unbelievable on American TV

      I guess.

      But Oliver’s been doing the “Foreign Man Bad” skit for his whole career. And as Israel’s sin eater, I don’t think Netanyahu or his proxies even care. “Liberals don’t like me, so I must be doing a good job” is half his pitch to the Likkudnik base

      South Park also did a Netanyahu Bad episode. Seems like most people slept through it.

      Let me know when any of these guys start talking about Regime Change.
