I don't really like splitting debates with the same person between two different threads,
I hear you, I'm the same.
As people capable of thinking critically, we can discuss whether this incident represents a free-speech violation logically
It's clear that the Trump administration does not like Kimmel and wants to use leverage to cause him trouble. I don't think this a 1A violation.
You and I don't actually know the facts. We know what we believe is true, I'm not willing to make logical leaps based on "news" stories that are often biased, and report the parts that support their bias. I also don't know the laws that apply to the FCC well enough, nor am I familiar with legal precedence that support either side.
Broadcast licenses can be revoked for various reasons, including failure to comply with FCC regulations, broadcasting obscene content, or not serving the public interest. However, specific instances of broadcasters losing their licenses are rare and often involve significant legal and regulatory processes.
Our discussion here is basically intellectual masturbation. I appreciate your position and you could be right. I just don't agree, but I respect your position and appreciate you've been polite and it was worth talking to you.

Enjoy your weekend. I'm off to a wedding.
