"I think were going to test ABC out on this. Lets see how we do. Last time I went after them, they gave me $16 million. This one sounds even more lucrative. A true bunch of losers! Let Jimmy Kimmel rot in his bad Ratings."

(7,516 posts)The ratings have declined over the past 10 years at basically the same rate as ALL ratings for broadcast TV. More recently, his ratings have actually risen since the Colbert cancellation was announced.

He uses our government to stuff his bank accounts and persecute anyone he doesn't like or who speaks out against him.

(243,649 posts)George Stephanopoulos said that he was convicted of rape, quoting the judge, but it was worded as assault on paper. And then he sued CBS because they had edited the traditional 60 Minutes presidential candidates interview which he refused to show up for - and of course they edited it for time or camera angles, that's what they do, but they foolishly gave in and paid him. So now he thinks he "owns" both networks.

(64,173 posts)When he sues say an NYT for billions while he is president - should he win he gets the money, not the government.
So when ABC handed over $16 million or whatever it was, that went straight to Trump, correct? That just seems so incredibly sleazy.
