Jimmy Kimmel Called Out For Gay Jokes About Sean Hannity And Trump
So when do gays call for a boycott of Kimmel's show?
Quote:Jimmy Kimmel is under fire for resorting to gay jokes in his feud with Sean Hannity.
During an exchange of insults with the Fox News host Friday, Kimmel tweeted a joke implying that Hannity has a sexual relationship with Donald Trump.
Kimmel and Hannity have been beefing since Wednesday, when Hannity called Kimmel out for jokes he made about Melania Trump earlier in the week. Specifically, Hannity called Kimmel an “a–clown.”
Kimmel retaliated during his opening monologue Thursday night, saying among other things that “if I’m an a–clown, [Hannity is] the whole a– circus.”
On Friday, Hannity resurfaced an old sketch from Comedy Central’s “The Man Show,” in which Kimmel asked various women to touch his crotch. Hannity labeled Kimmel “Harvey Weinstein Jr.” and called him “a pervert a–hole,” among other insults.
immel replied that Hannity was trivializing “the horrors of Harvey Weinstein,” and noted that unlike the disgraced mogul’s accusers, “every woman was a willing participant who gladly signed a release.” That could have been the end of it, but soon after, Kimmel followed that up with the other jokes.
That turned out to be a bridge too far for some Kimmel fans, who recoiled at the content and the tone of the insult.
Some criticized him for relying on the idea that calling someone gay is an insult, noting that it actually just insults Kimmel’s LGBT viewers.
Others said it was hypocritical of liberals to be okay with a homophobic joke, so long as the target is a conservative.

I could be wrong but I don't remember any talk shows doing off color jokes about Michelle or gay jokes about Hussein and Van Jones It's the typical double standard of the liberal MSM.

Just like everything else, homophobia is fine when spewed from the left. What else is new?
I saw one of the clips. Kimmel openly admitted that he does 2 hours of pilates every morning. He is the literal personification of soy.

It really is a close contest between Kimmel and Colbert who is the biggest leftist on late night tv. Both of them are pathetic excuses for men. I consider myself blessed I have never seen one minute of their shows.

Its funny that Kimmel is trying to call a truce because he's getting his ass handed to him.

Because he made his career on gutter humor and the objectification of women, now he want's to be part of the SJW elite and pretend that didn't happen.

He did do exactly that, and I thought it was funny at the time - still do.
I haven't changed - the soy latte world has and Jimmy obviously wants to be part of it.
IMO, it's too bad we still can't have un-politically correct humor anymore.

With Adam Corolla being libertarian and Jimmy Kimmel being a far left progressive, they must have gotten into a lot of interesting discussions back stage on the set of "The Man Show".

RE: Jimmy Kimmel Called Out For Gay Jokes About Sean Hannity And Trump
that's the fine line a comedian turned talk show host has to walk. Jon Steward did a pretty good job of that but you have to know where the line is and where you are treading into being a "news" person rather than a funny talk show host guy.
The only thing I ever hear about Kimmel is his political rants rather than about something being funny. At least Jon Stewart hosted a fake news show so that was his gig. He even got Tucker Carlson fired after roasting him on his own turf. I think the ratings for Tuckers show were already low so it was the last nail but still. I will say he's a talented guy.
Kimmel has come a long way from the bathroom humor of the The Man Show but I do miss girls jumping on trampolines.

Libturds had no idea Jon Stewart's show was fake news.

When was Tucker fired? He's got a show at 8 pm every night on Fox.

Quote:wiki: In January 2005, the new president and CEO of CNN Jonathan Klein, announced the cancellation of Crossfire. Klein also announced that they would not be renewing Tucker Carlson's contract. Carlson claimed it was he who had chosen to leave, to take a job at MSNBC.
HE'S IN A BETTER PLACE

It was some time ago around 2005. He was on a show called Crossfire on CNN where he was the token conservative, a hardcore Democrat guy and a somewhat moderate. It was the headbutt kind of show where everyone is arguing.

This is the closest article that mentions it. The source is questionable here but the content is pretty much how I remember it going down.
Jon Stewart went on Carlson's show and played him like a fiddle because Stewart doesn't really have to be factually correct because he is a comedian that can make valid points when he wants to. Carlson played right into his hands. I think Carlson thought he could go after him like he would any other hack on his show that was in serious politics. Turns out Carlson may have been on the way out anyway, but this may have been the last nail in the coffin. I think I just hate the stupid bow tie he wears. Kind of frat boy pretentious.

Kimmel is clearly unfamiliar with Sean Hannity.

Calling Sean's gayness for Trump is a joke? Hum. Though his sucking him off on national tv nightly made it pretty obvious.
