Late Night host Jimmy Fallon sparked controversy on Sunday after sharing a cheeky Instagram post in response to Donald Trump’s election victory.
The post was met with a mixed reaction from Fallon’s followers, with some praising his humor and others expressing outrage.
Critics accused Fallon of mocking the election results and showing disrespect to those who voted for Hillary Clinton. Others defended Fallon, arguing that he was simply trying to lighten the mood after a divisive campaign.
Fallon himself has not directly addressed the criticism, but his representative stated that “Jimmy’s post was meant to be a humorous comment on the day’s events.”
The relationship between Fallon and Trump has been strained in recent years. Trump has repeatedly criticized Fallon for his negative portrayal of him on Saturday Night Live, where Fallon impersonated him during the 2016 election.
Despite their differences, Fallon has also made positive comments about Trump in the past. In 2015, Fallon interviewed Trump on The Tonight Show and praised his “great sense of humor.”
The post has raised questions about the impact it may have on Fallon’s late-night show. Some viewers have threatened to boycott the show due to Fallon’s perceived support of Trump.
It remains to be seen whether Fallon’s post will have any long-term effects on his ratings or reputation. However, it has certainly ignited a debate about the role of comedians in covering political events.
