"It would be hard not to admire Jimmy Kimmel after watching him last night in that performance. It was heartfelt, it was sincere, it was personal, it was moving, and it was genuine—and it was about something that affects everyone in this country,” says veteran columnist Mike Barnicle as the Morning Joe panel weighs in on Jimmy Kimmel having broken his silence in an emotional return to ABC’s airwaves as he spoke to the controversy that briefly sidelined his late-night show and sparked a national debate over free speech. "We have something that very few people in the world have. We have the right to speak. We have the right to say what we want to say, when we want to say it with very few restrictions, and that goes from late night comedians to what we do here in the morning, to what you say on a bus or in a school room or whatever: Freedom of speech is the core of the United States of America.” Watch the discussion here.
