Description

Did a Trump appointee just censor late-night TV? When an FCC chair slammed Jimmy Kimmel's joke as sick, stations yanked the show, sparking a free speech firestorm. Accusations of government overreach flew as Disney fought back, but the controversy ignited a debate about comedy, censorship, and who really controls the airwaves.
