15. I have mixed feelings

Part of me wants to see Kimmel switch to doing podcasting after suing and winning his case against the FCC over the violation of his constitutional rights.

Part of me is frankly tired of talk shows that are not just superficial, enjoyable fun. That's what we had with Johnny, Dave, Conan, Jay, etc. Kimmel, if he has it in him and feels like it, could find a way to segue this situation back to a rebirth of the real art form known as the talk show.

Kimmel did step in it. He should have been a lot more careful with the subject matter. And, no, I'm not saying he needed to be a wuss. I'm saying that you don't lead with your chin.
