Was Jimmy Kimmel Censored?

"Corporate media and its kept activists have howled in response to Kimmel’s suspension, but none of its leaders offer an answer to a simple question: why should the First Amendment protect an ideologue’s right to make millions from lies on government-subsidized public airwaves, in defiance of market trends, but not independent Americans’ right to dissent from predictable media orthodoxy?
The litany of attacks on free expression is familiar. We’ve been exposing this and fighting it for five years with mountains of documents drawn from FOIA and court discovery. We’ve exposed the methods, funding, cut-outs, and algorithms. We have all the receipts, tens of thousands of pages of them.
New York Attorney General Letitia James used the weight of the state to demolish VDare, Peter Brimelow’s website dedicated to immigration. The Biden Administration coerced Big Tech into suppressing critics of the regime’s Covid policies.
Merrick Garland’s Department of Justice sentenced Douglas Mackey to prison for lampooning Hillary Clinton. Climate scientists bankrupted journalist Mark Steyn for mocking them. President Biden weaponized international legal systems against Pavel Durov and Julian Assange for facilitating the free flow of information.
From Peter Brimelow to Tucker Carlson to Bobby Kennedy to Mark Steyn to Alex Jones, the victims of the war on free expression were all independent voices who committed no crime other than deviating from the tenets of the deep state. That heresy led a parade of Democratic figures, including Ketanji Brown Jackson, Tim Walz, Hillary Clinton, law professors, and left-wing media to call for the removal of First Amendment protections that obstruct their agendas.
“The First Amendment stands as a major roadblock for us right now,” John Kerry remarked last year ahead of the presidential election. During the pandemic response, the Democratic Party attempted to obliterate that “roadblock.”
During oral arguments, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson said to the plaintiffs: “My biggest concern is that your view has the First Amendment hamstringing the government in significant ways in the most important time periods..” After all, the public needs “accurate information in the context of a once-in-a-lifetime pandemic.”"
------------------------------------------------------------
The Bill of Rights guarantees god-given rights to human beings (as described in the writings of the founders who wrote the Constitution.)
Those rights do NOT extend to creations of government otherwise known as corporations.
Kimmel does have those rights and he could use them in public spaces as an individual.
BUT as a paid employee of a government created corporation he has no such rights.
As the corporation was created by government, it is subject to the laws of government and the political decisions of government.
