Title: Isaac Hayes III and Thelma Anderson talk Free Speech and Media Power Plays
Description:
What happens when late-night comedy collides with politics, billion-dollar mergers, and free speech? In this episode, Isaac Hayes III and Thelma Anderson unpack Jimmy Kimmel’s suspension after comments about the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk — and the political and business storm that followed.
Together, they break down:
- Why Sinclair Broadcasting pulled Kimmel off-air while chasing FCC approval for a major merger.
- How Disney lost billions in market value after backlash and cancellations.
- Why Republicans and Democrats briefly united in defense of free speech.
- What TikTok’s U.S. takeover by Oracle, Andreessen Horowitz, and Fox signals about media consolidation and creator control.
This isn’t just about TV, it’s about who really controls the platforms, narratives, and algorithms shaping culture. For creators and investors, the stakes are clear: ownership equals power.
