Kimmel Needs to go!

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Satire trivializes violence against public figures.
  • - Remarks toward the First Lady were disrespectful.
  • - I expect ABC to uphold accountability.

There is a clear difference between satire and commentary that crosses into what many viewers would consider inappropriate and irresponsible. Jokes or remarks that appear to trivialize violence, particularly involving the President or any public figure, are not only troubling but reflect a lack of judgment that is concerning for a national broadcast platform.

Additionally, comments directed toward the First Lady were, in my view, disrespectful and fell well below the standard of professionalism expected from a major network.

As a viewer, I expect ABC to uphold a higher standard of accountability and responsibility in its programming.

Content that appears to promote hostility or dismiss serious matters undermines that expectation and damages trust with your audience.

I strongly urge you to take a closer look at the tone and direction of this program and take appropriate action to ensure it aligns with the level of professionalism your network represents. I refuse to associate or watch anything ABC until this disgusting pig is gone!

User's recommendation: Turn off ALL ABC programming

CANCEL THE VIEW!!!

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - The View is divisive and anti-tolerance.
  • - Anti-Christian comments are reprehensible.
  • - The reviewer plans to boycott advertisers.

The View is absolutely the most divisive, racial, anti-tolerance show on TV these days. The offenses are too many to count, but the most recent anti-Christian comments are reprehensible and horrific.

The problem was than made worse when McCain's attempt to speak for those of us with a strong Christian faith was completely shutdown by producers through Goldberg - which PROVES the intolerance of the show unless you have a PURE LIBERAL BIAS!!! I've seen some horrible shows in my 55 years on this earth, but the The View has won first place, and I'm appalled that ABC News, which considers itself a worthy and professional news outlet, would continue to air and support such disgusting material and hosts with no tolerance of the widespread Christian faith in America. Seems airing the ridiculous opinions of the hateful liberals on air (specifically Behar who is beyond words when it comes to hateful commentary, and prompts a quick channel switch whenever her face appears) is more important than providing enjoyable content that is divisive.

Obviously the only way to get through to your thick executive skulls is to boycott the advertisers, which is exactly what my family, friends and I plan to do. If you want to do entertainment, then pull this crock of a show and make a deal for HBO to air it, right along with SNL as they are both about the lowest quality crap I've ever seen.

Cons:

I just signed a petition to cancel the show. Get those crazy *** who are the promoters of racism and hate while blaming all others for it, off the show..they are all worthless twits and all they do is argue. They're boring and useless.

I could not agree with you more ! The View is the most hate filled , disgusting television show ever !!

Horrible women that seem to be very racist toward anything other than their view ! Shows like the view promote racism against whites and hate for any other view .

Anyone else getting tired of Gio flaunting his sexuality? I personally don't care if you are gay, straight, or bi...I do however feel like flaunting your sexuality as your all enveloping persauna is over the top and offensive.

News on Palestine Genocide

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Abc spends one minute on Palestinian views and fifteen on Israeli views.
  • - Prejudice is said to play a big role; both sides should have equal time.
ABC News - News on Palestine Genocide
Contains 2 confidential files for company representatives

Abc spends one minute covering Palestinians views n 15 minutes covering Israeli side... prejudice plays big role.

Need to balance ...

Russia, China , Hitler relayed news better.. both side of conflict should be given equal time.

Cons:
  • Goes against popular vews

ABC News two-female format does not work and us offensive. The two anchors make a mockery of the news by focusing on their personalities and personal brands versus presenting the NEWS in a respectable way.

In discussing the NCAA basketball tournament, they were literally waving pompoms as if this was an amateur high school production. Leave the entertainment (at which is they are poor) to the entertainment division and just present the news in a serious way.

We are at war, the economy is reeling, there is still a government shutdown, and families are struggling in many ways. Get real to reflect reality!

Tired of bad news programs

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - The news is formulaic.
  • - Stories are teased 2-3 times.
  • - New videos repeat from the day before and end with a touchy-feely story and David posing.

Big pharma presents the redundant news- news. Incredibly formula driven, same type stories teased 2-3 times before presented.

New Video always the same as the day before. Then they always wrap with some touchy feely story and David posing for the camera.

This program is an extremely weak impression of journalism. SAD.

Pros:
  • Top tech
Cons:
  • Smarmy and dumbed down

User's recommendation: Use multiple online sources for your news

Repeating commercials one after the next…the same commercial.

AI Highlights
  • - Repeating the same commercial is annoying and not informative.
  • - I want someone in programming and advertising to stop it.

Stop repeating the same commercial!!! It actually makes me angry at your sponsors because the commercial becomes annoying instead of informative. Please tell someone in programming and advertising to stop it.

Abc's Lack of trust

AI Highlights
  • - Comments were removed on ABC's channel.
  • - I was blocked after calling ABC out.
  • - ABC promotes freedom of press but deletes comments.

So I was watching a yt video on ABC's official channel and I started to notice that comments were being removed before my eyes! These weren't offensive or even broke community standards these were just people who had a different opinion, so I took screenshots.

Anyways, it kinda bothered me the hypocrisy ABC showed towards people and impeading their freedom of speech!

They were being censored so badly, I called ABC out and I was instantly blocked..

SHOCKING! This is a station that touts freedom of press and upholding rights of Americans and here they are deleting Americans comments?

They're 100% untrustworthy hypocrites and can no longer be trusted for any information whatsoever!

Agreed. Moderators fact checked Donald Trump 5 times!

They were not fair to Trump! This does not change my vote at all. Because I'm still voting for Trump. ABC is the fake news media!

And we do not need another debate! Harris flip flops and copies Trump!

Such biased reporting and views. What a bunch of bruised overpaid and unintelligent puppet head commentators. I made the mistake of walking into the room today and remember why I stopped watching.

AI Highlights
  • - Walked in while ABC was commenting during the inauguration today.
  • - Staff said ABC is not diverse and driving division in the country.

Made the mistake of walking into room while my wife had abc on commenting during the inauguration today. The staff commenting on being not diverse and driving division in this country.

Well, there you go with attacking ABC. Now, that just reinforced why I stopped watching ABC and other networks between the misinformation and negative rhetoric that has been happening, especially with the past 9 plus years.

Pros:
  • No pros
Cons:
  • Divisive
  • Arrogant overpaid actors
  • Prejudice

AI Highlights
  • - Complains Jimmy Kimmel mocks vice president on air while kids watch.
  • - Family will unsubscribe; ratings are down and the vice president could sue.

I can't believe that you let Jimmy Kimmel make fun of the vice president and talk that way when children are watching. My family and I will be unsubscribing from your network and you are already down on your ratings.

I am sure that they will be even lower when I spread the word. You should know that you could get sued by our vice president for this.

Cons:
  • Everything about this network

Preferred solution: Nothing. Your network doesn't care if you hurt feelings but only for ratings and this is why ou country is divided.

User's recommendation: None because you won't change
