"... totally biased coverage..." THERE IS NO FUCKING "COVERAGE!" It's a late night variety show with a comedy opening monologue and assorted actors / celebrities / musical guests. IT'S A FUCKING VARIETY SHOW. I am assuming that since America's Favorite Rapin' Grampy "successfully" sued a couple of ACTUAL NEWS SHOWS, just like a truffle hunting pig, he smells some quick and easy $$$$$$$$ if he just complains about Kimmel long enough.Trump has raged at "no talent" talk show host Jimmy Kimmel in a post to Truth Social.
The president has made few allies in the late-night television sphere, previously posting about Stephen Colbert, whose Late Show will end next season. Trump has now targeted Kimmel and the Live! show, with a post to Truth Social showing the president is furious at the entertainer.
Trump wrote, "Why does ABC Fake News keep Jimmy Kimmel, a man with NO TALENT and VERY POOR TELEVISION RATINGS, on the air? Why do the TV Syndicates put up with it? Also, totally biased coverage. Get the bum off the air!!!"

It's protected speech.

Amazing how Trump only sees "bias" as a one-way street, but yes...satire, protected speech, seldom exists in a realm of "whataboutism" where both sides of an equation are equally taken to task. He just smells another multi-million dollar media payday. He's already spending the money in his head, thinking how a financial "win" against Kimmel could be spent in his "ballroom."
