Seth Meyers Vows Free Speech Defense After ABC Suspends Jimmy Kimmel Amid Trump Administration Pressure
Comedian Seth Meyers sharply criticized President Donald Trump's administration for what he described as a crackdown on free speech following the suspension of Jimmy Kimmel's show by ABC. Meyers sarcastically praised Trump, highlighting the irony of the administration's claim to champion free speech while pressuring broadcasters to remove Kimmel after his comments about right-wing activist Charlie Kirk's assassination. The suspension, influenced by threats from Trump-appointed FCC chairman Brendan Carr, was viewed by many, including Meyers and other public figures, as an attack on democratic principles and media freedom. Meyers emphasized the importance of the First Amendment and vowed to continue his show with integrity and enthusiasm despite pressures. The controversy underscores tensions between the Trump administration and media outlets, with Trump celebrating Kimmel's cancellation and reportedly targeting other late-night hosts. This situation raises broader concerns about government influence on media and free expression in the United States.
