Ratings Poison – Early Jimmy Kimmel
Oscar Ratings Humiliating 16 Million

Original Article

Posted By: Imright, 3/13/2023 7:46:25 PM

Jimmy Kimmel once again proved to be ratings poison, with Sunday night’s Oscar telecast drawing a pathetic 16 million (give or take) viewers. These early numbers could increase when the final numbers hit Tuesday.Regardless, Roger Friedman is embarrassing himself with his “Oscars are Back!” headline. How could the Oscars be back when last year 16.6 million tuned in, and that was a catastrophe—when that was the second-lowest viewership in Oscar telecast history? Here’s a look at the last decade: 2013: 40.3 million 2014: 43.7 million 2015: 37.3 million 2016: 34.4 million 2017: 32.9 million

Well i’m no fan of jimmy kimmel, nor the whole Oscars thing anymore since it’s just libs on display — but maybe more significant is that I know I don’t see many movies out there that i want to see, so why watch an awards show about movies i havent seen and probably never will? Is that just the view of a 60-something woman ? does everybody else still go to the movies the way Americans have for decades? I don’t feel like they do but maybe it’s me.

Jimmy Kimmel is a blithering idiot. Slamming Tom Cruise for not being there was really dumb. Cruise is in Sicily at the moment putting some final touches on his upcoming Mission Impossible movie. If Tom had been there, wanna bet Kimmel would have slammed him for harming the climate by flying back just for a single night?

After the White House announced a new executive order focused on the president's "plan to reduce gun violence" on Tuesday, Biden addressed his latest fiat from Monterey Park, California. As usual, Biden's remarks had, at best, a tenuous connection to truth and reality.Pledging that his latest executive order dealing with firearms will "accelerate and intensify" his administration's supposed crackdown on illegal firearms, Biden said his order would keep firearms out of the hands of criminals by taking "every lawful action possible to move us as close as we can to universal background checks."

McCarthy’s interview, taped on Wednesday in the ceremonial U.S. House Speaker’s office, came before the Treasury Department finally, after weeks, relented and agreed to provide the many Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) on Biden family members’ bank transactions. McCarthy sat for the hourlong interview as part of the long form Breitbart News exclusive On The Hill video series.

Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) with co-host Ana Navarro slamming Fox News for making Harris look like “some kind of bumbling fool.” “I don’t know what the hell is wrong with Democrats. Listen, here’s the bottom line, Joe Biden is going to be your nominee. Stop talking about how old he is and Kamala Harris is going to be your vice president. So stop fretting.

President Biden has made many false claims throughout his decades-long political career, including one about being "arrested" when he was 21 years old for sitting in the Senate presiding officer's chair illegally, which he would contradict two years later. A 2007 interview Biden gave with comedian David Letterman is circulating on social media after being reposted in the wake of Fox News’ Tucker Carlson’s publication of Capitol footage from the Jan. 6 riots. In the interview, Letterman asked the Delaware Democratic senator what it was like walking into the Senate chamber in his 20s.
