The sacking of Blackface Kimmel           

ABC's firing of slime-hearted personality Jimmy Kimmel, following Charlie Kirk's deplorable murder, was entirely appropriate. Woke sorts heatedly allege free-speech violation, but they couldn't be more wrong. (And at least some probably know it.)

Kimmel worked for ABC. Workers accept some company discretion over their comportment as conditions of employment. For example, certain jobs require uniforms be worn. Employers can tell workers when to show up, and when they can go home. Haircuts and hygiene fall into the same category. 

No employee enjoys legal safeguard to invade their manager's office, storm around the desk, and bellow profanities in the boss's startled face. Repeatedly. Those doing so should expect termination. The wonderful free-speech clause does not lend cover.

Nor is a supermarket clerk at liberty to holler Gilbert and Sullivan operas while a half-dozen shoppers wait, their carts filled nearly to overflow.

Kimmel has as much right as any of us to speak openly on matters that impact him - in private capacity, and at his own expense. But he enjoys no right to employment at this or that company. 

Airwaves are publicly owned. To stream programming on them, broadcasters must agree to serve the public interest. Kimmel forfeited his platform by not only knowingly spewing ugly, objective untruths, but doing so as a calculated partisan political tactic.

That disserves the public. We shouldn't be expected to provide comfort for devious agents of our devastation.

Some Kimmel adherants maintain that FCC Chair Brendan Carr 'pressured' ABC to take action. They decry supposed government censorship.

But considering the network's contractual assent to observe public interests, the FCC advising ABC to properly adhere to accepted responsibilities amounted to enforcing law. 

(Doing so was once uncontroversial. But championing criminality and belching contempt for law officers are now standard for progressives. Witness sanctuary cities, elected Democrats' hailing of the massively destructive, 2020 BLM/Antifa nationwide riots, the deification of Luigi Mangioni, and woke bacchanalia surrounding the brutal assassination of Christian conservative Charlie.)

Not irrelevant were Kimmel's consistently dwindling ratings. Sweating network executives surely factored that dismal truth into considerations. (Comedy Central's Stephen Colbert also recently evidenced anti-Americanism's thankful unprofitability.) 

So, the culmination may have been a dollar-and-cents one, not the 'fascist oppression' of subversives' hyperventilations.

Astoundingly, rumblings now speculate ABC may be reconsidering Kimmel's sacking. Somebody's fucking somebody.
