Next week is the start of the next broadcast year. Either you in or your out as a local station participating to get unwired network dollars from national advertisers. All these deals were just signed. Late night represents a major revenue stream within it.

Jimmy Kimmel isn't returning to the airwaves because of "thoughtful conversations" with Disney executives.

He's back because consumers sent Disney a clear message: selling out our fundamental rights is not an acceptable cost of doing business.

They will use this lie to surveil, imprison, and kill Americans on the left.
