"Kmele Foster, co-host of The Fifth Column podcast, argued that the left should acknowledge that they have in the past been too censorious, something Phillip quickly agreed with. I think that's something more liberals should say. I think it would help. They should acknowledge, not just in passing, but actively acknowledge where things went wrong. That's the only way to move forward, I think, in a way, Phillip said."
"President Donald Trump has also dismissed free speech concerns over Kimmel's suspension, saying he should have been fired a long time ago, chalking ABC's decision up to bad ratings. Frankly, when you see stuff like this, I mean look, we can do this the easy way or the hard way, Carr said. These companies can find ways to change conduct and take action, frankly, on Kimmel, or there's going to be additional work for the FCC ahead."
Abby Phillip urged liberals to acknowledge their role in cancel culture amid Jimmy Kimmel's indefinite suspension after controversial remarks about Charlie Kirk. Panelists aired past clips of conservatives complaining about cancel culture and argued the situation now appears reversed with supporters of Kimmel's suspension. Kmele Foster said the left had been too censorious and Phillip agreed. Ashley Allison countered that Kimmel's suspension differs because of potential administration involvement and FCC attention. FCC Chair Brendan Carr warned broadcasters and suggested regulatory action. President Donald Trump dismissed free speech concerns and said Kimmel should have been fired earlier.
