    Comedian Andrew Santino says he went to 'war' with Disney execs over censored jokes
    Comedian Andrew Santino says he went to "war" with Disney over censorship in his upcoming Hulu stand-up special, accusing the company of forcing him to tone down jokes about so-called "Disney adults.""They definitely changed the jokes," Santino told Variety."I was not stoked about that. We got into a little bit of a war. They did not want those jokes in there."Santino said the special, titled "White Noise" and premiering September 12, was flagged by Disney executives after they previewed it. The backlash centered on his bit about adult Disney superfans who frequently visit the parks without children and wear branded apparel.BILL MAHER SLAMS MODERN ENTERTAINERS FOR LACKING OLD-SCHOOL WORK ETHIC"My argument was: I joke about a lot of other stuff in the special thats controversial. I dont think joking about people who like Disney as grown-ups is a controversial take, but they disagreed."He said executives felt the jokes would reflect poorly on the brand, as Disney owns Hulu, where the special will be streamed.JOHN RICH SAYS HOLLYWOODS PRAISE OF TRUMP PROVES WOKE MONSTER IS FADING AS WOODY ALLEN APPLAUDS PRESIDENTAccording to Santino, executives told him he had to minimize the jokes or the special would not air."They were like: If you want it on here, this is how we want it. Otherwise, we wont be able to air the special. We have to cut the jokes," he told Variety, saying both sides eventually agreed on a pared-down version.'SUPER FUNNY' COMIC NATE JACKSON DECLARES THAT'S 'A WRAP' ON CANCEL CULTURE, PHENOMENON IS OVERSantino described the decision as disconnected from reality and said he was disheartened to make the compromise."Quite frankly, its bulls---, because thats not how people think and talk in the real world. Nobody cares," he said."People speak their mind all the time, and they love when comics are able to say the things people dont talk about much because theyre afraid to."CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTUREHe said the experience highlights why many comedians are turning to podcasts and independent platforms instead of traditional outlets."Thats why we love the podcast world and why weve kind of gone away from traditional forms of media. We got sick of being told, Youre not supposed to say that."Fox News Digital reached out to Disney for comment, but did not immediately hear back.

    'Charming, earnest, trusted': Charlie Kirk's colleagues, friends reflect on an extraordinary American life
    Friends and colleagues of late Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk honored his humble beginning, fierce faith and extraordinary life on the primetime special "Charlie Kirk: An American Original."The program wove their anecdotes with flashbacks of Kirks own words, including his recounting of what happened after his dream of going to West Point fell through at age 18."I remember that summer of 2012, I had no money, no connections and no idea what I was doing," Kirk said in a 2018 interview. "But I had relentless energy and a vision, and I was willing to take a risk. Only in America is that possible."'SLEEPING GIANT' LIKELY WOKE UP FOR TURNING POINT USA AFTER CHARLIE KIRK'S ASSASSINATIONKirk, a married father of two, was assassinated on Sept. 10 while speaking to students at Utah Valley University.He credited his own feeling of "isolation" in high school for what inspired him to start a conservative nonprofit to connect like-minded students, and he went viral for debating students on their campuses around the country."When Charlie started out with this, this was never about attention or getting on TV or having a show," OutKick host Tomi Lahren said.

We're all on our own journey of faith.""He loved young people, he wanted to help young people, and he didn't deserve this," President Donald Trump told "Fox & Friends" after Kirk's assassination. "He was truly a good person."In 2018, Kirk described Turning Point USA not as a think tank, but a "battle tank" that will fight the "culture war."CLICK HERE TO JOIN FOX NATION"Our generation is going to have a very big decision, whether we are going to go down the path of socialism or we embrace the foundational principles of free market capitalism and smaller government," Kirk had warned.
