ABC just took late night host Jimmy Kimmel off the air “indefinitely."

This news comes just hours after Trump’s handpicked FCC chair threatened to take away the network’s broadcast license over comments Kimmel made on air he didn’t agree with – saying “we can do this the easy way or the hard way."

That’s a red alert for media company profit margins – Nextar, the largest owner of ABC stations in the country, has millions on the line right now as they await Trump’s approval for a merger deal to grow even bigger.

Time and time again, when Trump or his cronies say jump, corporate media giants ask how high. And when our government – which is supposed to follow the First Amendment – threatens to retaliate against its critics, these profit-driven companies are all too willing to comply in advance.

If you agree that our media should hold the powerful accountable – NOT bow to them – sign the petition to demand ABC and other media companies stop caving to Trump >>
