Central Illinois | Quote from the article:
"..................And then there was Kimmel. Known for mixing humor with blunt political commentary, Kimmel had built a reputation as a host unafraid of controversy. But he, too, faced pushback from executives who worried his political monologues alienated advertisers. For years, Kimmel played along. Until, reportedly, he didn’t. Conversations with Maddow and Colbert revealed a shared frustration: they were all tired of networks that demanded safe content while the world demanded truth.
So they left."
............................................................................
Colbert is still on, Kimmel is suspended, don't think either one is leaving voluntarily.
Don't know about Maddow, last I heard her ratings were poor and she was way overpaid, doubt if she walked away from that kind of money for an "ethical" reason.
