ABC didn’t want Jimmy Kimmel to show his interview with Democratic Texas Senate Candidate James Talarico.
The network forced Kimmel to put the interview on YouTube, instead, the way CBS had dealt with Talarico and Stephen Colbert last February.
Well, it backfired, of course.
Between the Talarico interview, and Jimmy’s monologue from the regular, there have been over 6 million views on You Tube.
A regular Kimmel show averages 1.5 million viewers.
So Kimmel quadrupled his audience, and made ABC look foolish.
Talarico is getting closer and closer to beating Ken Paxton in the November election. By banning him, ABC made people curious about his position. In the interview. Talarico makes a lot more sense than Paxton, who has lists of negatives against him.
If you missed the YouTube interview, it’s worth watching.
