Public Intolerance

Don't post a simple technical question in the Technology forum here (Printer Troubleshooter). If the question is too simple, then the Intolerance Police will attack. Same applies to Jimmy Kimmel. Once upon a time, such comments were made by Lenny Bruce. 30+ years later and we only repeat history? Ironically, Jimmy Kimmel was probably correct! Being correct is politically incorrect. Just ask Bill Mahr.

Quote:
from CNN Kimmel show pulled for comments
Kimmel was talking to ABC sportscaster Mike Tirico during halftime of Tuesday's game when he said, "They're going to burn the city of Detroit down if the Pistons win, and it's not worth it." Tirico, an Ann Arbor resident, immediately objected, telling him to be careful about making fun of Detroit.

ABC made the decision to pull Wednesday night's "Jimmy Kimmel Live" from affiliates nationwide shortly after the program was taped that night in California.
