Hollywood Stars Protest Disney's Censorship | JQJO

A group of prominent Hollywood actors, including Tom Hanks, Meryl Streep, and Jennifer Aniston, signed an ACLU open letter protesting Disney's decision to pull Jimmy Kimmel's show from its schedule. The letter condemns this action as censorship, evoking the McCarthy era, and urges Americans to defend free speech. The move follows Nexstar Media's decision to preempt Kimmel's show due to his comments about conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Disney's ABC and Sinclair have also removed the program from their schedules. Signatories include actors whose work is distributed by Disney, highlighting the potential impact on creative freedom.
