Also it appeared the Trump criminals were referred to. Guess I'll have to check commentary from the anti Hollywood crowd later on the net.

This isn’t the News division, it’s the Entertainment group that puts on the Simpsons, which has kicked Trump in the ass over the years. They’re all about ratings and ad revenue.
I just watched the last 45 minutes or so, so you might be right but it would surprise me.

and spin-offs and then the sale to Disney. Looks like it is no longer part of the Entertainment Group that it once was.

FCC fines them for bad language, that's why ABC told Beto to watch his language. Fox entertainment is broadcast not cable.
