Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

colbert could have offered the other candidates an interview with the same terms. he had no intention of doing so. crockett even said so. the fcc called her saying that this was going to happen and she had the right to appear on his show.
if he wasn't going to invite her on, then that interview can't air on the public airwaves.
instead of taking up for him and blaming everyone under the sun for the incident, why isn't anyone asking why he wouldn't have her on? not unless the consipiracy of "CbS cEnSoRs 4 tRuMp!!!" rules all around you.
you think trump cares about a democratic primary race for a senate seat more than likely staying red airing? this is so far beneath him AND weiss.
Damn, the bootlick bots have reached Lemmy. Truly a sign of the end times.
I didn't have "Lemmy .ml user goes to bat for zionist democrat candidate" on my bingo card for today, but here we are.
The only things below Trump are the children he raped.
I love how the immediate past involving Kimmel proves you wrong. You're angry at nothing but your own poor assumptions. Namely, that this admin is capable of a level of respect they've literally never demonstrated the capacity for.
Show me a single moment where the Trump admin has acted in response to criticism the way you just magically described they would. Because I can point to literally hundreds of examples of Trump lowering the bar far below where people like you constantly bitch it couldn't be lowered. Now below the bodies of two Americans it never needed to be after people like you bitched "ICE wOuLd NeVeR."
And despite being proven wrong again for the 30,000th time, here you are still bitching about a depth Trump wouldn't lower the bar under. He would. Based on the fact he literally always has to the point where the US is now an international embarrassment at best, and a collapsing nation at worst.
You're defending the worst kind of pedophile imaginable for embarrassingly snowflake reasons.
You’re a fool if you believe that. Also the fcc rules exempt talk shows from giving equal time. You have no idea that Crockett is not wanted. In my view they don’t want to invite the republican candidate.
user instance checks out.
Do you really think you're going to get an intern position working between Trump's FCC chairman and Trump's CBS owner? Because honestly you might.
Lol shut up
