He uses his \u201cJimmy Kimmel Live\u201d platform to push progressive causes, slam GOP politicians and ignore Democrats behaving badly.<\/p>\n<p>When Jimmy Fallon and Stephen Colbert <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodintoto.com\/late-night-hacks-turn-recession-era-biden\/\">briefly torched President Joe Biden<\/a> earlier this year following media attacks on the elderly leader, Kimmel stood his ground.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s made him a comic pariah to half the country. The Oscars team ignored that reality and chose Kimmel to host, again. That\u2019s despite him overseeing a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thewrap.com\/oscars-ratings-why-viewership-sunk-20-percent-all-time-low\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">dramatic decline in viewership<\/a> during his two-year stint from 2017-18.<\/p>\n<p>Jimmy Kimmel\u2019s second turn hosting the Oscars lost nearly 20 percent of the overall audience that tuned in last year. With *just* 26.5 million total viewers, Sunday\u2019s awards show on ABC not only set a new all-time low in viewership, it obliterated the old mark by 17 percent.<\/p>\n<p>That didn\u2019t stop the minds behind the ceremony from giving him a third go of it.<\/p>\n<p>The Oscar producers say, year after year, they\u2019re going to \u201cfix\u201d the telecast. Innovate. Update. Bring some of the show\u2019s old fans back at long last.<\/p>\n<p>Yet these same producers never publicly acknowledge the show\u2019s hard-Left sensibilities. It\u2019s driven millions of viewers away from the show, most from Red State U.S.A.<\/p>\n<p>By selecting the nakedly partisan Kimmel (again), they\u2019re either blind to that reality or know all about it.<\/p>\n<p>And they just don\u2019t care.<\/p>\n<p>Kimmel infamously addressed his hard-left conversion in 2017, noting the shift alienated right-leaning viewers. \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/video\/5612703584001\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Not good riddance but riddance,<\/a>\u201d Kimmel said at the time.<\/p>\n<p>The Academy just flipped Kimmel\u2019s script.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNot riddance but good riddance,\u201d the body effectively said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The timing is no accident.
