The Spin

Right narrative

The revival of Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show is a disgrace. His platform was not one of comedy but partisan propaganda, that overwhelmingly weaponized against conservatives and shielded Democrats. Backed by corporate donors with political agendas, the show represents not free expression but institutionalized bias, masquerading as humor.

Left narrative

Jimmy Kimmel’s return to ABC is not just welcome — it is vital. His reinstatement strikes a blow against government intimidation and censorship, reaffirming that satire must remain free to provoke, offend, and illuminate truth. With power seeking to muzzle dissent, restoring Kimmel’s voice is a crucial indicator of the ongoing health of free speech.
