Description

Did Jimmy Kimmel cross the line? ABC suspends the late-night host after controversial remarks linking a suspected killer to MAGA, sparking a free speech firestorm. Is this a new Red Scare? We explore the chilling parallels to Edward R. Murrow's fight against McCarthyism, the FCC's threats, and how George Clooney's Good Night, and Good Luck resonates now more than ever.
