Good, he didn't say anything to apologize for. He didn't even say anything about Charlie Kirk

Imagine if he said that homeless people should just be killed… oh wait 

[Murakami27 8,575]

There’s nothing to apologize for to begin with. 

[Morphine Prince 109,709]

There’s nothing to apologize for. 

I can’t believe Jimmy Kimmel is the new leader of the resistance. 

[LauraPalmer 1,773]

good. he has nothing to apologize for. 

[TheMontebello 1,229]

Screw the MAGA scum. Kirk said himself that a few deaths were worth people having guns, so he should be pretty pleased in hell right now. Oh wait! I forgot he meant other people's deaths. Maga only care about the lives of their own.

[Ilia Malinin 2,956]

he didn't need to apologise anyway, he didn't even say anything insulting.

He said the shooter was MAGA but in fact that's a lie - he is far left.

The lie caused outrage and ABC affiliates around the US and ABC decided to stop airing his show, so ABC and the FCC decided to pause Kimmel as a response, not because tyrannical government.
 

Stop saying this is the end, he was going to be cancelled soon anyways as his show loses money like Colbert.

 

 

Source that he's far left?

So with your logic, what should happen to Brian Kilmeade as he’s not had any repercussions for his comments on homeless people.

Straight up false lol. FCC was the one who made threats against the affiliates and Disney.  

…

On Wednesday, Carr appeared in high dudgeon for an interview with conservative commentator Benny Johnson. “It appears to be some of the sickest conduct possible,” Carr intoned over a clip of Kimmel’s statement. It was also, he said, legally actionable. Broadcasters “have a license granted by us at the FCC, and that comes with an obligation to operate in the public interest,” he said. “We can do this the easy way or the hard way. These companies can find ways to change conduct and take action, frankly, on Kimmel, or there’s going to be additional work for the FCC ahead.”

Carr and Johnson walked out the threat a little further. They noted that Disney and ABC aren’t issued a central license to broadcast; licenses are granted to individual TV stations, owned in small numbers by Disney but mainly by separate companies that broadcast ABC and other networks’ programming. “FCC regulatory action focuses on these individual stations,” Carr noted. “The public interest means you can’t be running a narrow partisan circus and still meeting your public interest obligations.”

Carr’s statement on Wednesday was unambiguous: ABC-affiliated TV stations needed to stop airing Kimmel’s show ASAP, or they could be fined or lose their license. And the stations’ parent companies were listening. Nexstar, which owns around 200 stations and reaches roughly 39 percent of US households, said quickly that it would no longer air Jimmy Kimmel Live. So did fellow giant Sinclair Broadcast Group.

…

Before the suspension Wednesday Carr had urged local ABC affiliates to stop airing the show. He suggested the commission could open an investigation and that broadcasters could potentially be fined or lose their licences.

There is no hard evidence of the shooter's motive, the investigation is still ongoing.

Where did Kimmel lie? He never said that the shooter was Maga he said that the right was desperately trying to make the shooter anything but a Maga junkie.

Jimmy's show was pulled AFTER the FCC made threats to have him suspended. That falls under "Tyrannical Government".

The only one lying here is you but that's something that comes natural to right wing sycophants that need Daddy Trump to tuck them in at night

Nothing. I'm sure it's something he hasn't even considered. Right wingers have absolutely no shame and believe in whatever they want to "Own the left". Morals or brains be damned

[smitherz 2,455]

To even say that he said the shooter was maga shows a lack of comprehension skills. He said maga spent all weekend pointing fingers to show that he was anything other than one of their own. which is true. they spent the ENTIRE weekend blaming leftists, trans people and the internet maga people even went so far to dox a completely random trans women who they thought was the killer. 
 

this a gross attempt to latch onto something completely inconsequential to push forward a narrative that will ultimately serve Donald Trump and maga. 
 

Nasty nasty nasty ****ing work
