   Actor and singer Pat Boone had some words of wisdom for alleged comedian   
   Jimmy Kimmel amid controversy over his lies about the individual suspected   
   of assassinating Turning Point USA’s Charlie Kirk.   
      
   In a video posted on TikTok, the 91-year-old entertainer praised  Kimmel,   
   saying he has “spent many hours enjoying your wit and your ability to   
   interview and interact with almost anybody except Brad Pitt, for some   
   reason.”   
      
   Boone then stated that Kimmel and fellow late-night talk show host Stephen   
   Colbert “have increasingly abused your freedom of speech” because they   
   believed they “could infect the airwaves and the consciences of millions   
   of watchers without regard to their differing and actually opposite views   
   and beliefs.”   
      
   “While networks and sponsors were paying you millions to entertain, amuse,   
   and help them in their days feeling good, you've chosen to infect and   
   insult the intelligence, strongly held political views, and convictions,   
   and increasing instances, actual facts, with your very personal freedom to   
   say whatever you want on the public airwaves,” Boone said.   
      
   “Well, you still have that precious freedom, Jimmy, and I'm sure you're   
   still vehemently employing it to anybody who wants to hear what you have   
   to say right now,” the actor continued. “But say whatever you choose to   
   Bill Maher or Howard Stern or other programs whose sponsors profit from   
   and share your views. But learn that networks and sponsors who pay dearly   
   to reach viewers who don't share your views and are seriously offended by   
   them.   
      
   Boone affirmed that Kimmel is “still perfectly free” to say anything he   
   wants, but “freedom isn’ tfree, as you’re finding out shockingly.”   
      
   He explained that “There is a responsibility that comes with it and   
   consequences from its misuse, and that’s why it’s so precious.”   
      
   Boone concluded, “So shout, shout on. Speak your views publicly in the   
   streets without fear. But don’t expect to be paid millions when you bite   
   the hand that feeds you.”

   Disney and Kimmel are currently in talks to see if both parties can come   
   to a compromise to bring “Jimmy Kimmel Live” back to ABC, according to   
   Variety. This comes after the show was taken off the air when Kimmel lied   
   about Kirk’s alleged assassin, deceptively claiming the suspect was a   
   right-winger when all available evidence shows he was on the left.   
      
   Insiders have noted that there is no guarantee that Kimmel will return to   
   the airwaves. Kimmel has remained silent on the matter, but behind the   
   scenes, sources claim he was “livid” about his predicament.   
      
   There has been much debate over Kimmel’s removal and the role FCC Chairman   
   Brendan Carr is believed to have played in his situation. The chairman   
   suggested that there could be regulatory consequences if ABC refused to   
   address the matter, which has elicited criticism from those saying it is a   
   violation of free speech.   
      
   Boone absolutely nailed it. His take was probably the best I’ve seen on   
   this controversy so far.   
      
   Of course, Kimmel has the right to say whatever he wants. He absolutely   
   should speak his mind — even though he’s clearly full of it most of the   
   time. But it is ridiculous to expect to be able to blatantly lie to his   
   audience to promote a political agenda and expect that advertisers and   
   companies will still want to associate with him.   
      
   But in one respect, I can’t blame him. Kimmel has been nothing more than a   
   feckless hack for at least a decade. He got away with it then, so why   
   wouldn’t he now? But the mistake he made was failing to read the political   
   tea leaves and see that times are a-changin’ and that there is less demand   
   for that type of claptrap. After all, there is a reason why Kimmel’s   
   ratings dropped by 40 percent over the past ten years, isn’t there?   
      
      
   --   
   November 5, 2024 - Congratulations President Donald Trump.  We look   
   forward to America being great again.   
      
   We live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so that   
   stupid people won't be offended.   
      
   Every day is an IQ test. Some pass, some, not so much.   
      
   Thank you for cleaning up the disasters of the 2008-2017, 2020-2024 Obama   
   / Biden / Harris fiascos, President Trump.   
      
   Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the   
   The World According To Garp.  Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood   
   queer liberal democrat donors.
