The Fall of Jimmy Kimmel: A Late-Night Show's Untimely End

Looking back, it's a miracle that it was five whole days before Kimmel dove head-first into the gutter of unnecessary, leftist vitriol and spin, when on Monday night he accused Trump's supporters of lying to America about Kirk's murderer

EXCLUSIVE: JIMMY KIMMEL'S DOWNFALL - THE FINAL NAIL IN HIS COFFIN

In a shocking turn of events, ABC has pulled the plug on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and fans are left reeling in their electric vehicles. The news is as devastating as it is inevitable, given Kimmel's recent antics have been more akin to a train wreck than comedy gold.

Let's face it, folks - The Late Show with Stephen Colbert was the ratings leader and reportedly lost a whopping $40 million per year for Paramount! If that's not a recipe for disaster, we don't know what is. And as for Kimmel's show? Well, let's just say it wasn't exactly raking in the dough either.

Disney ¿ ABC's owner ¿ must have been salivating over the thought of giving Kimmel the ol' heave ho and that dumdum delivered them the opportunity on a silver platter with an idiotic (disprovable) abomination of a monologue in the wake of Charlie Kirk's assassination

Disney-ABC must have been drooling at the prospect of getting rid of Kimmel and his toxic brand of comedy. And boy, did they ever get their chance! The latest controversy surrounding his monologue on Charlie Kirk's assassination was the final straw - a perfect storm of liberal vitriol and misinformation that left even the most die-hard fans speechless.

Kimmel's attempt to blame Trump supporters for spreading "misinformation" about Kirk's killer was met with widespread outrage. Newsflash, Jimmy: it's not hard to read between the lines when you're as clumsy as a drunken elephant on roller skates! The Governor of Utah himself said the shooter had a leftist ideology and a trans lover - talk about eating crow!

But what really sealed Kimmel's fate was his original statement extending sympathy to "all victims of gun violence." Oh, spare us the theatrics, Jimmy! It's clear you only care about your liberal audience and their fragile egos. When in doubt, just throw some virtue signaling into the mix and hope no one notices.

Let's be honest: The Late Show with Stephen Colbert ¿ canceled in May ¿ was the late-night ratings leader and it was reportedly losing $40 million a year for Paramount! I don't think Jimmy's show was exactly a cash cow

The writing was on the wall from the very beginning. After Kimmel's disgusting monologue, we predicted on Fox News that his show would be history - and boy, were we right! It seems Disney-ABC finally got tired of his antics and decided to take him out back behind the barn for a mercy killing.

But wait, there's more! The liberal media is still scrambling to defend Kimmel's indefensible statements. CNN's Bobblehead Brian Stelter and Jake "The Snake" Tapper took it upon themselves to rationalize Kimmel's ghoulish remarks - because, of course, they did.

"We're trying to understand the complexities of this tragedy," said Stelter, while Tapper chimed in with his signature brand of spin. "Kimmel was just trying to say that maybe the suspect wasn't a Republican or far-right figure." Oh please, Jake! The motives were as clear as day - and even on Monday, anyone with half a brain could have guessed.

The liberal media's desperation to save Kimmel's skin is almost as pathetic as his attempts at comedy. It's time to face facts: Jimmy Kimmel is a lazy, partisan hack who mistook propaganda for entertainment.

And now the Left has the nerve to scream "Censorship!"? Give us a break! This is just another example of their double standards and hypocrisy. They'll shut down any media outlet that dares to criticize their precious liberal agenda, but heaven forbid they actually hold someone accountable for their actions.

But here's the thing: no one is entitled to host a late-night show - not even Jimmy Kimmel. And if you can't handle a little bit of criticism and backlash, then maybe you shouldn't be in the business of making people laugh (or trying to).

So as we say goodbye to Jimmy Kimmel Live!, let's take a moment to reflect on what really happened here. It wasn't about censorship or cancel culture - it was about good old-fashioned accountability. And if anyone deserves to be canceled, it's Jimmy Kimmel.

[UPDATE]

Former President Barack Obama weighed in on the controversy with his signature brand of sanctimony. "After years of complaining about cancel culture," he wrote, "the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by threatening regulatory action against media companies." Oh, spare us the crocodile tears, Barry! This is just another example of liberal hypocrisy - they'll shut down any media outlet that dares to criticize their precious agenda.

In fact, we can recall a time when Obama's own administration was accused of intimidating the media into suppressing the Hunter Biden laptop story. Talk about irony! And as for cancel culture? Give us a break! It's just another example of the liberal Left trying to silence anyone who disagrees with them.

So let this be a lesson to all you wannabe comedians out there: if you can't take the heat, stay out of the kitchen. Jimmy Kimmel may have lost his job, but we're still laughing - and that's all that matters.
