US late-night political satire
Overview
Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel mocked President Donald Trump during a monologue, using the nickname ‘Teddy Doze-evelt’ after the president appeared to nap during a September 11 memorial ceremony. Kimmel aired a montage of clips showing Trump appearing to nod off at various public events, including his inauguration and several Cabinet meetings.
In a separate development, political analysts noted that attempts to censor an interview conducted by Kimmel with Texas Democratic Senate nominee James Talarico may have increased its viewership on YouTube. The discussion also touched upon the symbolic passing of the torch from Stephen Colbert to Kimmel following Colbert’s departure from CBS.
