Comedian and podcast host Adam Carolla has been friends with Jimmy Kimmel<\/strong><\/a> for some time now, and recently weighed in on Kimmel\u2019s suspension following comments he made about Charlie Kirk.<\/p>\n Carolla, who co-hosted The Man Show with Kimmel from 1999-2004, now hosts his own podcast, The Adam Carolla Show, and is known for his now mostly right-leaning views. However, Carolla characterized Kimmel\u2019s comments as \u201cinaccurate,\u201d and went on to defend his longtime friend.<\/p>\n \u201cI think a lot of people want me to comment on it. It\u2019s a weird thing,\u201d Carolla said (via THR<\/a>). \u201cThe right and the left are always sort of misinterpreting things. He was inaccurate about something. It wasn\u2019t like he was necessarily attacking Charlie Kirk. He was trying to dump it on Trump and inaccurate about it.\u201d<\/p>\n Carolla went on to say that he knows Jimmy as a \u201cgood guy,\u201d and said the pair still keep in touch despite their differences.<\/p>\n \u201cI know Jimmy to be a very good guy and a generous guy, and I\u2019ve always said that about him. And I realize that while everyone else knows Jimmy as a caricature, I know him as a person,\u201d said Carolla. \u201cWhen I run into people that don\u2019t know Jimmy as a person, [Bill] O\u2019Reilly or Dave Rubin, Dennis Prager, and they go, \u2018what\u2019s up with your buddy Jimmy?\u2019 Well, I know him, so that\u2019s why I don\u2019t think of him like you think of him. But on the other hand, they think of you as a cartoon character too\u2026 I know Jimmy is a human and I know how good he is and I know how decent he is, and we disagree politically, but who cares? We disagree on pizza toppings as well, but it doesn\u2019t mean we don\u2019t talk.\u201d<\/p>\n On Wednesday night,\u00a0ABC halted production on Jimmy Kimmel Live<\/a>\u00a0after the FCC openly threatened to take action against the network and its license following Kimmel\u2019s comments about Charlie Kirk\u2019s death. During his last show as of now, Kimmel commented on the potential political leanings of Kirk\u2019s killer as well as how the MAGA movement was reacting to it.<\/p>\n \u201cWe hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them, and doing everything they can to score political points from it,\u201d said Kimmel during his monologue.<\/p>\n So far, Kimmel\u2019s show is considered on\u00a0indefinite pause<\/a>. Sinclair Broadcasting, which owns ABC affiliate stations alongside Nexstar, has said that in lieu of Kimmel\u2019s upcoming Friday show, ABC will air a special memorial service to Kirk that other affiliates are free to also run. The company also demanded that Kimmel apologize for the comments and make a \u201cmeaningful personal donation\u201d to Kirk\u2019s family, as well as Turning Point USA.<\/p>\n The post Adam Carolla Has Surprising Response to Jimmy Kimmel Suspension<\/a> appeared first on ComingSoon.net – Movie Trailers, TV & Streaming News, and More<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Comedian and podcast host Adam Carolla has been friends with Jimmy Kimmel for some time now, and recently weighed in on Kimmel\u2019s suspension following comments he made about Charlie Kirk.
