The collision of Hollywood politics, corporate media, and free speech is once again on full display. Former New York gubernatorial candidate and Sex and the City actress Cynthia Nixon is urging her followers to boycott Disney after the company suspended late-night host Jimmy Kimmel. The suspension came in the wake of Kimmel mocking President Donald Trump’s mourning of conservative activist Charlie Kirk’s assassination, while also spreading disinformation about Kirk’s killer, labeling him part of “the MAGA gang.”
In a video posted to social media, Nixon announced: “Hey, I just cancelled my Disney+ and Hulu subscriptions, and they asked me why. I hit ‘Other’ and I wrote, ‘Because I believe in the First Amendment. Reinstate Jimmy Kimmel, now.’ My whole family is really gonna miss ‘Abbott Elementary.’ We are really gonna miss ‘Only Murders in the Building.’ But you know what? We would miss the First Amendment a whole lot more.” She went further, calling on her audience to, “Don’t go to the theme parks. Don’t go on the cruises. Cancel your subscriptions, now.”
Her declaration came after major ABC broadcast affiliates, Nexstar and Sinclair, made the decision to pull Jimmy Kimmel Live from their programming. It was a decisive move that came just 48 hours after the comedian mocked Trump’s grief over Kirk’s death and circulated false claims about the assassin’s background. Nexstar issued a firm statement: “Nexstar strongly objects to recent comments made by Mr. Kimmel concerning the killing of Charlie Kirk and will replace the show with other programming in its ABC-affiliated markets.”
The situation highlights a recurring tension in American culture: the intersection of entertainment, political speech, and corporate accountability. For years, late-night television has leaned heavily into partisan politics, often targeting conservatives and Republican leaders with ridicule. Yet the boundaries of acceptable commentary seem to shift depending on the political winds, with corporate boards stepping in when backlash threatens the bottom line.
From a conservative perspective, the irony is impossible to miss. Hollywood celebrities, who frequently champion corporate boycotts against traditional values and family-focused companies, now find themselves advocating the same tactics when their own allies face consequences. Nixon’s call to punish Disney economically mirrors the very strategies progressives often deploy against businesses that fail to align with their agenda. In effect, the tools of consumer activism are being used in both directions, revealing the selective principles at play.
There’s also a deeper lesson about the fragility of free expression in today’s cultural climate. The First Amendment protects Americans from government censorship, not corporate discipline. But the growing entanglement of politics and media has created an environment where entertainment conglomerates wield enormous influence over what voices are heard. Conservatives have long warned about this concentration of power—arguing that when entertainment and news companies are controlled by the same ideological circles, balance and accountability disappear.
Cynthia Nixon’s campaign may rally her fan base, but it underscores the hypocrisy of Hollywood’s moral posturing. Free speech cannot be treated as a banner to raise only when it benefits political allies. The selective outrage—mocking conservatives one day, then crying censorship the next—rings hollow to millions of Americans who see a double standard at work.
What remains clear is that the cultural battlefield is shifting. The suspension of one late-night host has triggered calls for nationwide boycotts, a reminder that corporate America is now a central player in the political fight. For conservatives, it offers confirmation of a truth they have pointed out for years: when entertainment becomes a weapon in the political arena, the lines between show business, ideology, and national debate blur beyond recognition. And when those lines blur, ordinary Americans are left questioning who really gets to define free expression in the modern age.
Where was she when Roseann got cancelled and other conservatives? What a bunch of phonies. This is not about free speech, this is about protecting their own. He did not make a joke, he out right lied.
AMERICA BOYCOTT HOLLYWOOD AND ALL LIBERALS THAT ARE ACTOR’S AND ACTRESSES
