Megyn Kelly is joined by Steve Bannon, host of Steve Bannon’s War Room, to discuss new reporting that Jimmy Kimmel was preparing to attack MAGA again instead of issuing an apology for his ghoulish comments about Charlie Kirk and his supporters, how pressure inside ABC and Disney reportedly led to his suspension, what Kimmel’s suspension reveals about the current cultural shift, the collapse of institutional media credibility, the embarrassing displays of sadness over Kimmel, the ongoing unhinged leftist reaction to Charlie's death, the cultural fear of a rising Christian movement, the gaslighting we're seeing from the media, and more.

The ‘Manosphere’ Reacts to the Jimmy Kimmel News
(NYTs losing it! They are much worse.)1/2
Long before Jimmy Kimmel’s late night show was pulled indefinitely by ABC on Wednesday, the podcast world — particularly in the so-called manosphere —was awash in debate about free speech, cancel culture and where the lines are drawn between humor and hate speech.
In episodes devoted to the subject, many podcasters in that realm, and in conservative circles, were united in arguing that Mr. Kimmel had spread false information on his Monday telecast when he said of Tyler Robinson, the man accused of killing Mr. Kirk, that conservatives were “desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them, and doing everything they can to score political points from it.”
The reactions from the podcast hosts varied widely, however, when it came to the influence of the chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, Brendan Carr, who suggested in an interview hours before ABC’s announcement that the regulatory agency might take action against the network because of the hosts’s remarks.
Supporting the Suspension
Stephen K. Bannon, the political strategist and host of “Bannon’s War Room”: “I love hearing these people squeal,” he said on Thursday, referring to the critics of the suspension, “because people are contacting me saying, ‘Hey, can you get on here to debate about the First Amendment?’ We ain’t debating anything. We’re taking action.”
Mr. Bannon went on to say that Mr. Kimmel was shut down because he had smeared the MAGA movement and “denigrated the memory of Charlie Kirk by lying like he does all the time.”
He also made it clear that he believed that CBS’s decision to cancel “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” and ABC’s suspension of Mr. Kimmel’s show were part of a larger plan to rid the broadcast world of its late night hosts. “Two down, two to go,” he said, not bothering to name the hosts of “The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon” and “Late Night With Seth Meyers,” both on NBC.
“Now we have a scalp in Jimmy Kimmel,” Mr. Bannon added. “And there are gonna be many, many, many more scalps.”
“The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show”: In a lengthy discussion of the issue, Mr. Travisbrought up Roseanne Barr, whom ABC fired from the sitcom “Roseanne” in 2018 (it was later restarted as “The Conners”) after she had made racist remarks on Twitter about Valerie Jarrett, a former adviser to President Obama; and the actress Gina Carano, who was dropped from the cast of the Disney Plus show “The Mandalorian” aftershe made comments on social media implying that being a Republican in 2021 was like being Jewish during the Holocaust.
“When you create a culture where someone can be fired when they say something that is considered offensive, you have created the standards by which your own stars can also be fired,” Mr. Travis said. “And, to me, if you didn’t say a word about Roseanne, and you didn’t say a word about Gina Carano, I don’t understand how you think you have the moral high horse or legitimacy to suddenly ride in and say, ‘Oh my goodness, look at what they’re doing to Jimmy Kimmel.’”
In the second hour of Mr. Travis’s show, Eric Trump called in with the suggestion that ABC’s suspension of Mr. Kimmel was unrelated to any governmental interference. “Listen, the guy has been a jerk,” Mr. Trump said of Mr. Kimmel. “He hasn’t been funny. But, honestly, I think the network used this as a way to get him out based on, you know, bad ratings.”
News and Analysis About the Media
“Louder With Crowder”: Steven Crowder emphasized that Mr. Kimmel was being “voluntarily suspended by a private company” and said he did not feel bad about that.
“The Michael Knowles Show”: Mr. Knowles called ABC’s decision to pull “Jimmy Kimmel Live” a “great move.” He pushed for further intervention by the F.C.C., acknowledging that his stance would cause him trouble with libertarians and “squishy types.”
“The joke in poor taste is a little bit of a red herring” he said. “It’s the lies that we’re talking about here, because these news networks are not merely private corporations. These news networks are licensed broadcasters. They require licenses from the government. They have a purpose, which is, in the case of news, to tell the truth, to inform the public.”

Critical of the Suspension
“Flagrant,” hosted by Andrew Schulz and Akaash Singh: Mr. Singh expressed reservations about the suspension. Speaking with a pair of regulars on the show, Alexx Media and Mark Gagnon, for a 15-minute segment added to the main episode, he described ABC’s move as “a big attack on free speech.”
Mr. Singh added: “It is funny to watch right wing people just become left wing people.”
“In terms of censorship, freedom of speech is more under attack now, honestly, than I think it has ever been,” he said. After asking the other men if he was being hyperbolic, he got some pushback, with all of them agreeing that Mr. Kimmel should not have said what he said.
“Charlie Kirk should have been allowed to say the things we didn’t like,” Mr. Singh said. “Jimmy Kimmel should be allowed to say the things we didn’t like. That’s just what America is.”
“Real Coffee,” hosted by Scott Adams, the cartoonist and political commentator: Mr. Adams flatly said: “I’m on Jimmy Kimmel’s side.”
In his remarks, Mr. Adams referred to his own career history. In 2023, he posted a YouTube video in which he called Black Americans a “hate group” and said that white people should stay away from them. In the backlash that followed, he was dropped by the company that syndicated his “Dilbert” comic strip, and a planned book was canceled by its publisher.
“Would I like some revenge?” Mr. Adams said in his podcast on Thursday. “Yes. Yes, I would enjoy that. But that doesn’t mean I get it. That doesn’t mean I should pursue it. Doesn’t mean the world’s a better place if it happens.”
He added: “Do I think I should have been canceled? Nope. Do I think Roseanne should have been canceled? Nope. And I’m not going to change my mind because it’s Jimmy Kimmel.”
A Complicated Reaction
“The Ben Shapiro Show”: Mr. Shapiro celebrated Mr. Kimmel’s change in fortune, repeatedly discussing how much he disliked the host and his late-night program — but he also took a critical look at how things played out and what that could lead to in the future.
“I do not want the F.C.C. in the business of telling local affiliates that their licenses will be removed if they broadcast material that the F.C.C. deems to be informationally false,” he said. “Why? Because one day the shoe will be on the other foot.”
Mr. Shapiro added that there should be a high bar for the F.C.C. to intervene over false information: “I’m just telling you, if Democrats win the presidency and you got a Democrat in charge of the F.C.C. — you got Adam Schiff in charge of the F.C.C. — you know which affiliates are going to get threatened?All of the Fox affiliates. You know that’s going to happen.”

Morrissey cancels US concerts saying there has been a 'credible threat' on his life in wake of Charlie Kirk assassination
10:00 EDT 20 Sep 2025 By KELLY GARINO, US REPORTER
English singer-songwriter Morrissey has canceled two US shows after a 'credible threat' was made against his life.
The 66-year-old former front man of The Smithswas scheduled to perform at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Connecticut on Friday and at MGM Music Hall in Boston the next day.
But on Friday morning, Morrissey’s official social media accounts announced the cancellation of both East Coast concerts.
'In recent days, there has been a credible threat on Morrisey's life,' the star's Facebook post read.
'Due to recent events and out of an abundance of caution for both the artist and band, the upcoming shows this weekend at Foxwoods and MGM Music Hall have been cancelled,' it added.
'All tickets will be refunded automatically at your original point of purchase.'
The sudden cancellations came after authorities arrested 26-year-old Canadian Noah Castellano, who allegedly posted a deadly threat against the singer on the social media app Bluesky.
On September 4, Castellano allegedly shared his plans on Bluesky ahead of Morrissey’s scheduled performance at the annual CityFolk Festival in Ottawa, Canada, according to court docs obtained by Ottawa Citizen.
His alleged post read: 'Steven Patrick Morrissey when you perform at TD Place here it Ottawa next week on the evening of September 12th, 2025 at about 9pm,I will be present at the venue in the audience and I will attempt to shoot you many times and kill you with a very large gun that I own illegally.'
The post, which referred to Morrissey by his birth name, was sharedfrom an account named ‘guy who gets shot in the head one hundred thousand times a day.’
Castellano was arrested Friday on charges of uttering threats to cause death or bodily harm, but has since been released on a $5,000 bail.
The Ottawa Citizenreached Castellano by phone at his father’s home in Washington, DC, where he is required to stay as a condition of his bail.
However, when asked about the charges, Castellano simply responded: 'I'm not interested.'
Despite the alleged threat, Morrissey’s headliner performance at the highly anticipated music festival went ahead - though his presence sparked controversy among some attendees.
In the days leading up to the show,local buzz focused on Morrissey’s request that vendors refrain from selling meaton the day of his performance, due to his strict vegetarian beliefs, according to CTV News.
Each vendor - including a BBQ smokehouse food truck - agreed to modify their menu, ensuring no meat was served anywhere on the festival grounds that day.
Organizers even warned that security would search arriving concertgoers for animal products, underscoring the strict enforcement of Morrissey’s meat-free mandate.
Morrissey has also drawn attention in recent years for aligning more closely with right-wing views, particularly due to controversial comments he’s made about race.
The star has become increasingly vocal inhis opposition to England’s liberal-leaning immigration policiesand previously expressed support for 'For Britain', a far-right political party - which was later dissolved in 2022.
While speaking about acid attacks, Morrissey said: 'London is second only to Bangladesh for acid attacks.
'All of the attacks are non-white, and so they cannot be truthfully addressed by the British government or the Met Police or the BBCbecause of political correctness,' as reported by The Week.
In another odd remark, the musician stated:'Racism is at its most abhorrent in relation to eating animals.
'If you eat animals, isn’t it a display of hatred for a certain species? And what gives you the right to eat another species or race? Would you eat people from Sri Lanka?'
During an interviewin 2010, Morrissey referred to Chinese people as a 'subspecies' while speaking about animal cruelty in China, according to The Guardian.
Morrissey hasalso come under fire for repeatedly attacking Islamic practices- calling halal slaughter 'evil,' falsely linking halal certification to ISIS, and criticizing UK politicians for allowing halal meat to be sold in public institutions, according to ITV News.
Civil rights and anti-racist organizations have fiercely condemned Morrissey’s remarks as Islamophobic and misogynistic, with several groups calling for widespread boycotts of his concerts.
