Excerpt:

The left’s free speech facade is cracking like cheap glass, and it’s hilarious to watch them squirm. As Jimmy Kimmel gears up to slink back onto ABC’s airwaves with his ratings-challenged propaganda fest, California State Senator Scott Wiener is throwing a tantrum, vowing to punish Sinclair Broadcast Group for refusing to air the show. “We will hold Sinclair accountable for this attack on our democracy,” Wiener blustered on X, raging over their decision to preempt Kimmel’s return after his vile lies about Charlie Kirk’s assassin being “MAGA.”



Now it's good for the government to punish media companies for their programming decisions?

Sinclair's existence, and individual ABC affiliates having the right not to show Kimmel, is because of laws designed to prevent media consolidation; otherwise ABC would own and operate more stations. Sen. Wiener demonstrates how antitrust concerns can be a front for other complaints.
