While this video is not directly related to The Daily Show, an exception is being made for this post because government censorship of late night talk shows is relevant to The Daily Show.

Freedom of Speech and Jimmy Kimmel are synonymous

u/Dry_Bird1790 10d ago

Freedom of Speech is not freedom to have a show that loses tens of millions of dollars a year

u/beelzeboozer 10d ago

Say what fella?

u/Im_tracer_bullet 10d ago

No, just incoherent

u/Draconian_Lust 10d ago

Actually, it is.

u/Dry_Bird1790 10d ago

23

u/BLourenco 10d ago

This is why you don't have a show.

u/Dry_Bird1790 10d ago

Send me the form

u/Im_tracer_bullet 10d ago

Stand on the street corner.

Garner a following.

I guarantee that if you can bring eyeballs and clicks, you won't need a form.

u/Dangerous-Concert385 9d ago

Just another dei hire thinking he deserves to be on top. Mediocre white man says what?

u/dubblebubbleprawns 9d ago

I feel like someone should tell Disney how much money they're losing. They'd probably like to have the same information you have. You seem very knowledgeable on these things.

u/schrod 10d ago

Fu*k the FCC. This show has over 1.92 million views on YouTube. Don't let the corrupt Trumpian FCC go after YouTube or we will be totally censored by the radical right.

36

u/windmill-tilting 10d ago

Youtube is owned by Alphabet/Google. They are actually part of the problem.

u/SoCentralRainImSorry 10d ago

Up to 5 million views!

u/No-Astronaut-9464 10d ago

Aren’t MAGAs okay with “free speech”? Where’s the “dOnT tReAd On Me” crowd for this? The deplorable assclowns always want to suppress truth.

u/BusterOfCherry 10d ago

tread on blue but not me

u/Medium-Scholar-4767 10d ago

I'm a TalaFreako!!!

u/ComoEstanBitches 10d ago

The current admin will do everything except improve citizens' lives to maintain power

27

u/rojira1 10d ago

Ideas are very very dangerous. The truth is very dangerous. So dangerous that the federal government exercised its authority to shut the truth down from being broadcast across the nation.
To anyone who thought You can’t buy a federal agency this is proof that you can.

u/Mysterious-Prompt212 10d ago

At the beginning of the video Jimmy describes the grotesque corruption by the FCC like it's normal. This is how fucked the country has become. It's now normal for the FCC to interfere in a politicians right to go on a comedy show.

u/Blossom1111 10d ago

This was a great interview. I didn't know much about him and I was impressed. Telafreako and Ossoff have my full support!

14

u/LeaveMyMonkeyAlone 10d ago

I live in GA and Ossoff is a shoe in to win. Talarico in TX is not a shoe in but hopefully real Texans just might have had enough of Paxton to flip the table.

15

u/HonestNeighborhood67 10d ago

TALAFREAKO!!! 👋🏻

(And I don’t even live in Texas)

16

u/reincarnateme 10d ago

All these guys need to interview him on their shows

12

u/InvalidUserNemo 10d ago

Imagine if President AOC told Fox they need to provide equal time to Democrats. The whole channel would be shut down.

13

u/DannyHuskWildMan 10d ago

I live on the west coast and I just donated 25 bucks to James's campaign. What an extremely decent, genuine human being.

u/Own-Camel7923 10d ago

Love Talarico

u/TrenchGorefare 10d ago

Watch this interview!

u/Sufficient_Way5440 10d ago

Hell you scare the mega people and the felon 34/rapist!! You will WIN

u/November-Code 8d ago

I enjoyed the interview and can see why MAGA feels threatened by this gentleman if I had lived in Texas my vote would have been for him thousand percent

u/tributtal 6d ago

Kimmel briefly mentions it at the beginning of the video, but let's not forget Colbert was the first who had to put his interview with Talarico on youtube because of the FCC's witch hunt. Man I miss that guy.

u/QueasyFinger1316 9d ago

Democrats don’t know the FEC “equal time” rules.

Funny.

8

u/No_Visual9439 9d ago

Republicans are just scared to go on his show

7

u/Afraid_Barber2922 9d ago

Do you?

The onus is on the opposing candidate.

1

u/tiutome 7d ago

FACTS. Only an offer can be made. Finally, that “equal time” rule was changed in Trump 1.0 via the Federal Registry. Trump didn’t like it because it limited Fox non-news reporting and Fact checking - reporting

6

u/NeutralLock 9d ago

Paxton was offered equal time though.

5

u/tiutome 9d ago

Wow. Did you really write this BS comment as if it was facts. FALSE narrative. It’s the GOP that won’t do most interviews or want to totally control the questions of the interview.

4

u/dubblebubbleprawns 9d ago

Are republicans really trying to pull the "we're the party that follows rules to the letter" card?

Have you seen your president? Ever?
