These kow-towing CEO's feel they are protecting their stockholders.

Boycotts would show them who they should be answering to.

What is a company's stock worth with no customers?

I guess there are boycotts brewing.

Would love to see a winning athlete declare "I'm NOT going to Disneyland."

You can also decide that “The Happiest Place on Earth” aka Disney is no longer your destination this winter, in fact Florida itself is no longer your winter destination as so many Canadians have also decided. Vote with your wallet.

Our democracy is being hit on many fronts. The Fourth Estate used to be our best defense against attacks on democracy. Now, they are playing along with the greatest threat to our country since the Civil War. What have we become if the only thing that matters is money? Our nation is becoming more morally corrupt daily. Sad.

I'm with you on this, BOYCOTT ABC. I have read some of Kirk's transcripts, including the one where he opines that gays should be eliminated, which could have ticked off his gay killer, but certainly is not a reason to kill him or anyone. But Kimmel doesn't argue that that act was a horrible thing to do to one's political opponent, his argument is that MAGA is using it, and his widow's lament, to belittle everyone who disagrees with them, the so-called "extremist left wingers." Jimmy Kimmel was justified in expressing his opinion. I hope he sues somebody for a lot of money and wins his case. Meanwhile, Mr. Colbert is losing his job effective next May, with CBS for the same reason, cutting comedy about funny wacko POTUS Trump.

Kirk didn't say gays should be eliminated.

Jen Psaki did a great job of unraveling that mess. Scary times, indeed. Good night and good luck.
