I couldn’t agree more and someone is losing his base?

It does help that Trump is already a deeply unpopular president. The lower his approval rating, the less institutions will be afraid of him.

I was indeed surprised to be chatting with a random 30ish black woman down in the projects Saturday about the vegetable garden she was growing outside her house and suddenly out of the blue, she goes "Bring back Jimmy Kimmel!!!!" This reached people and reached deep.

The only way to get Jimmy Kimmel is from a local affilate of ABC, and Nexstar and Sinclair won't carry Jimmy Kimmel

Nexstar is the largest owner of U.S. TV stations and, following the acquisition of TEGNA, will control stations in 132 of the 210 U.S. television markets.

Sinclair Broadcast Group owns or operates about 180 stations, and while they affiliate with all major networks, they are the largest owner of ABC affiliates, controlling approximately 40 or more

In essence Jimmy Kimmel is canceled anyway. Unless we can boycott local affiliates owned by Nexstar and Sinclair

You can watch Kimmel online easily. And as I mentioned in my post, pressuring Sinclair, Nextstar, and their advertisers are the next steps. Right now we scare Disney more than they and the regime do. Now we can apply that pressure to them as well. Protests are ongoing.

Thanks, but I am not tech savvy, and have problems sitting in front of my computer screen watching tV. I try to watch youtube, subjects that interest me but I just can't spend an hour in front of a tiny screen.

I have a smart TV,and DISH, but don't know how to access the internet via my TV.

I do have an internet connection WiFi to Smart TV, necessary for accessing On Demand and Netflix
