Jonathan Joss Honored Amid King of the Hill Backlash

Jonathan Joss, known for voicing John Redcorn on 'King of the Hill,' was recently shot and killed outside his San Antonio home. In response, the San Antonio film community is honoring him with a special screening event highlighting his contributions to film and television. After his death, the show's creators posted a tribute on social media, but fans criticized it as insincere, citing Joss's exclusion from a recent 'King of the Hill' panel and his public pleas for help following an alleged hate crime that destroyed his home. At the ATX TV Festival, Joss was reportedly dismissed when trying to share his struggles, intensifying backlash against the show's creators and sparking calls for accountability. Many fans have expressed disappointment and threatened to boycott the upcoming series revival unless the creators address their treatment of Joss. The controversy has fueled broader discussions about support for marginalized voices in the entertainment industry.
