As twice daily news podcast, The Quickie 5 00:00:26,814 --> 00:00:31,574 Speaker 2: with Your Headlines for Thursday, September eighteen, cancel culture has 6 00:00:31,614 --> 00:00:35,574 Speaker 2: come for Jimmy Kimmel. During his career ending Monday monologue, 7 00:00:35,694 --> 00:00:39,774 Speaker 2: Kimmel criticized right wing politicians for trying to categorize Charlie 8 00:00:39,854 --> 00:00:43,734 Speaker 2: Kirk's alleged assassin as a far left lunatic and attempting 9 00:00:43,734 --> 00:00:45,614 Speaker 2: to score political points from his death. 10 00:00:45,934 --> 00:00:48,294 Speaker 1: We hit some new lows over the weekend with the 11 00:00:48,414 --> 00:00:52,214 Speaker 1: Maga gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered 12 00:00:52,254 --> 00:00:54,654 Speaker 1: Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them, and 13 00:00:55,014 --> 00:00:58,214 Speaker 1: everything they can to score political points from. 14 00:00:58,494 --> 00:01:02,094 Speaker 2: Kimmel's cancelation was announced the day after Brendan Carr, the 15 00:01:02,174 --> 00:01:06,854 Speaker 2: Trump appointed chair of America's broadcast regulator, the Federal Communications Commission, 16 00:01:07,174 --> 00:01:10,334 Speaker 2: threatened to take away the broadcaster's license. He went on 17 00:01:10,374 --> 00:01:14,014 Speaker 2: Benny Johnson's right wing podcast, saying Kimmel's comments showed his 18 00:01:14,294 --> 00:01:18,494 Speaker 2: sickest conduct. He said broadcasters licenses are granted by the 19 00:01:18,574 --> 00:01:21,174 Speaker 2: FCC and that they could do it the easy way 20 00:01:21,374 --> 00:01:24,614 Speaker 2: or the hard way to take action on Kimmel. Kimmel's 21 00:01:24,654 --> 00:01:27,454 Speaker 2: cancelation came minutes after one of the biggest owners of 22 00:01:27,494 --> 00:01:30,854 Speaker 2: TV stations, Nextstar Media, said it would not air his 23 00:01:30,934 --> 00:01:34,374 Speaker 2: late night show for the foreseeable future. Nexttar called the 24 00:01:34,414 --> 00:01:39,014 Speaker 2: comedian's remarks offensive and insensitive. On Wednesday Night, car thanked 25 00:01:39,014 --> 00:01:42,294 Speaker 2: Nexstar for doing the right thing. It's a decision, the 26 00:01:42,334 --> 00:01:46,734 Speaker 2: President applauded, calling the cancelation great news for America. He 27 00:01:46,814 --> 00:01:49,974 Speaker 2: congratulated the ABC for their courage to cancel the show, 28 00:01:50,254 --> 00:01:53,534 Speaker 2: saying Kimmel has zero talent and even worse ratings than Colbert, 29 00:01:53,774 --> 00:01:57,494 Speaker 2: whose show was canceled by CBS in August. CBS said 30 00:01:57,494 --> 00:02:00,614 Speaker 2: the cancelation was made due to financial headwinds, but the 31 00:02:00,654 --> 00:02:03,494 Speaker 2: decision sparked criticism as it came just two days after 32 00:02:03,534 --> 00:02:07,134 Speaker 2: Colbert called out his former employer, paramount sixteen million dollars 33 00:02:07,134 --> 00:02:09,534 Speaker 2: settlement with Trump over the editing of a six year 34 00:02:09,614 --> 00:02:13,334 Speaker 2: minute interview with the MVP Kamala Harris. Colbert called the 35 00:02:13,374 --> 00:02:16,774 Speaker 2: case frivolous and the settlement a big, fat bribe. At 36 00:02:16,814 --> 00:02:19,454 Speaker 2: the same time, an eight billion dollar merger to sell 37 00:02:19,534 --> 00:02:23,494 Speaker 2: CBS to Skydance was simultaneously being processed and reviewed by 38 00:02:23,494 --> 00:02:26,254 Speaker 2: Trump's media regulator, which had the final sale on if 39 00:02:26,254 --> 00:02:30,014 Speaker 2: it would be approved. Democrat Senator Adam Schiff appeared as 40 00:02:30,014 --> 00:02:32,894 Speaker 2: a guest on the show and later wrote on social media, 41 00:02:32,974 --> 00:02:36,414 Speaker 2: if Paramount and CBS ended the Late Show for political reasons, 42 00:02:36,494 --> 00:02:40,854 Speaker 2: the public deserves to know and deserves better. Since Kimmel's cancelation, 43 00:02:41,014 --> 00:02:44,414 Speaker 2: Trump has also taken a swipe at NBC's hosts Jimmy 44 00:02:44,454 --> 00:02:48,454 Speaker 2: Fallon and Seth Myers, who he called total losers. Jimmy 45 00:02:48,534 --> 00:02:50,974 Speaker 2: Kimmel is yet to make a statement on his cancelation. 46 00:02:51,894 --> 00:02:54,454 Speaker 2: In news that hits closer to home, the ABC has 47 00:02:54,494 --> 00:02:57,734 Speaker 2: been barred from attending Donald Trump's press conference near London 48 00:02:57,774 --> 00:03:01,574 Speaker 2: this week. The Guardian reports Downing Street told the broadcasters 49 00:03:01,654 --> 00:03:04,854 Speaker 2: London Bureau its accreditation to attend the press conference had 50 00:03:04,894 --> 00:03:08,734 Speaker 2: been withdrawn for logistical reasons. The broadcaster said there's no 51 00:03:08,814 --> 00:03:12,574 Speaker 2: indication it's connected to a clash between the ABC's America's editor, 52 00:03:12,814 --> 00:03:15,894 Speaker 2: John Lyons and the President over his business dealings, which 53 00:03:15,934 --> 00:03:19,494 Speaker 2: occurred earlier this week. Lyons clashed with Trump on Wednesday 54 00:03:19,494 --> 00:03:21,574 Speaker 2: when he asked him how much wealthier he had become 55 00:03:21,654 --> 00:03:24,614 Speaker 2: since returning to the White House. Trump accused the reporter 56 00:03:24,734 --> 00:03:28,294 Speaker 2: of hurting Australia. In my opinion, you are hurting Australia 57 00:03:28,414 --> 00:03:29,214 Speaker 2: very much right now. 58 00:03:29,854 --> 00:03:31,614 Speaker 1: Now they want to get along with me. You know 59 00:03:31,734 --> 00:03:35,454 Speaker 1: your leader is coming over to see me very sir, Rick, 60 00:03:35,614 --> 00:03:37,094 Speaker 1: I'm going to tell them about you, and you said 61 00:03:37,094 --> 00:03:38,094 Speaker 1: a very bad tone. 62 00:03:38,174 --> 00:03:41,054 Speaker 2: The Trump administration used an official ex account to label 63 00:03:41,134 --> 00:03:44,734 Speaker 2: Lions a foreign fake news loser. The ABC News director 64 00:03:44,934 --> 00:03:49,054 Speaker 2: Justin Stevens said Lyons had the broadcasters full support. It 65 00:03:49,094 --> 00:03:51,974 Speaker 2: seems Ben and Jerry's is now just Ben's after co 66 00:03:52,054 --> 00:03:54,894 Speaker 2: founder Jerry Greenfield made the decision to stand down from 67 00:03:54,894 --> 00:03:58,214 Speaker 2: the company after forty seven years. Ben shared a letter 68 00:03:58,294 --> 00:04:01,134 Speaker 2: Jerry wrote on social media saying he could not continue 69 00:04:01,134 --> 00:04:03,774 Speaker 2: working for a company he claims has been silenced by 70 00:04:03,814 --> 00:04:07,294 Speaker 2: its parent company. For those unaware, Ben and Jerry's has 71 00:04:07,294 --> 00:04:10,134 Speaker 2: a long history of social activism, and the business has 72 00:04:10,174 --> 00:04:13,934 Speaker 2: previously described the war in Gaza as a genocide. Jerry 73 00:04:13,974 --> 00:04:16,774 Speaker 2: said the in Ben negotiated a deal that protected their 74 00:04:16,774 --> 00:04:19,814 Speaker 2: social mission that has allowed Ben and Jerry's to speak 75 00:04:19,814 --> 00:04:22,814 Speaker 2: out on issues regarding peace, justice and human rights in 76 00:04:22,854 --> 00:04:26,254 Speaker 2: response to real world events, but now he claims it's 77 00:04:26,294 --> 00:04:30,214 Speaker 2: profoundly disappointing to realize that independence, the very basis of 78 00:04:30,254 --> 00:04:33,374 Speaker 2: the sale is gone. The parent company and Ben and 79 00:04:33,414 --> 00:04:36,374 Speaker 2: Jerry's have disagreed since twenty twenty one, when Ben and 80 00:04:36,454 --> 00:04:39,654 Speaker 2: Jerry's wanted to stop sales in the Israeli occupied West Bank. 81 00:04:40,254 --> 00:04:43,014 Speaker 2: A spokesperson for Magnum ice Cream Company said that it 82 00:04:43,094 --> 00:04:46,534 Speaker 2: disagrees with mister Greenfield's perspective and has sought to engage 83 00:04:46,614 --> 00:04:49,414 Speaker 2: both co founders in a constructive conversation on how to 84 00:04:49,454 --> 00:04:53,094 Speaker 2: strengthen Ben and Jerry's powerful, values based position in the world. 85 00:04:53,854 --> 00:04:56,414 Speaker 2: Police have charged a sixty four year old man with 86 00:04:56,534 --> 00:04:59,454 Speaker 2: murder hours after bones were found during a search for 87 00:04:59,494 --> 00:05:01,894 Speaker 2: the remains of a woman who vanished more than twenty 88 00:05:02,014 --> 00:05:04,974 Speaker 2: years ago. The breakthrough in the cold case was made 89 00:05:05,014 --> 00:05:08,294 Speaker 2: late on Wednesday. The human remains, believed to be those 90 00:05:08,334 --> 00:05:11,054 Speaker 2: of Susan Goodwin, were buried in the backyard of a 91 00:05:11,094 --> 00:05:14,734 Speaker 2: house in Port Lincoln, South Australia.

Detective Inspector Andrew McCrae said it was a 95 00:05:23,774 --> 00:05:26,534 Speaker 2: tragedy that Susan's family have spent the last twenty three 96 00:05:26,654 --> 00:05:29,934 Speaker 2: years without answers.
