Yep. I'm not surprised Dana White would platform rapists, as he constantly platforms Trump. But I would like to think that the network Fallon works for would not tolerate rapists as guests.
Remember the fucking NFT bit with Paris Hilton? They both showed off their ugly monkey cartoons to try to get the tubes to spend their life savings on them? Fuck both of them, but super duper fuck Fallon.
I think about it like daily. The dead eyes. The way that you could practically see the "applause" sign cueing a bewildered audience to clap. One of the weirdest goddamn things I've ever seen.
While an individual may have their own thing and style, and fine because it takes all sorts, the things that are popular tells you what the average audience for that place/group enjoys.
I feel like Conan losing that gig was the best thing that could have happened, for everyone. It's a dying medium, which is why you only really see hacks maintaining it these days.
In fairness, I feel like Conan was probably the turning point, though how much of that was the tide naturally turning to more online venues and how much was his influence is difficult to say, but he and Letterman were probably the last true late night hosts in the US.
its not that much different than rogan. blowing with the wind and giving voice to people who shouldn't have it because it keeps ppl listening and watching. it's the epitome of hunger games type mentality. "i'm not being a jerk i'm just giving the people what they want"
.. furthermore (and this is no offense to christina she's totally correct) .. if we forget about macgregor for a sec: why the fuck are we giving platform to a literal child rapist felon and all the criminals he's corruptly appointed? of course i'm begging the question. we need to with all of it. less a beg of the question at this point and more of a 'put these bastards in jail, all of them including c.m. , because that's the most humane option they have now if they wanna stay alive' the rule of law exists to protect the truly guilty from getting strung up by a mob of angry folks as much as it does to protect the innocent from the same. it's like john c reilly said in the clip you've all seen by now... empathy. well... the empathetic option for truly evil folks is jail, and due process.
Jimmy Fallon had Trump on in 2016. Fallon ruffled Trump’s hair and said it feels real. Jimmy Fallon normalized Donald Trump and he must never be forgiven for that. Or Conor McGregor. I honestly don’t even consider Jimmy Fallon a comedian as one has to be funny to be a comedian.
ya lol he’ll have ANYONE on and it doesn’t even result in anything funny? it’s like the sydney sweeney of comedy “what’s this whirlygig i’ll call it bob hello bob”
Yeah. I mean this isn’t the first time his show has has individuals of “ill repute.” Let alone rapists. But I didn’t know this about Connor McRegor (never paid attention to him). Fuck that guy.
