I saw another article somewhere (don't have the link) that says ABC is doing this b/c they face some legal jeopardy from Kimmel saying something on their air which is untrue, and for which they can be sued.

Kimmel stopped being funny a decade ago at least. Now he's just another angry hate monger.

They are network tv. They could lose their license.

Quote:ABC broadcast affiliate Nexstar removed Jimmy Kimmel from all 32 of their stations on Wednesday after the late night host lied about Charlie Kirk’s assassin.

Disney also pulled Kimmel’s show.

“Disney is pulling “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” “indefinitely,” the company confirmed to Fox News Digital,” Fox reported.

“Nexstar Media Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: NXST), today announced that the company’s owned and partner television stations affiliated with the ABC Television Network will preempt “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” for the foreseeable future beginning with tonight’s show. Nexstar strongly objects to recent comments made by Mr. Kimmel concerning the killing of Charlie Kirk and will replace the show with other programming in its ABC-affiliated markets,” the statement read.

“Mr. Kimmel’s comments about the death of Mr. Kirk are offensive and insensitive at a critical time in our national political discourse, and we do not believe they reflect the spectrum of opinions, views, or values of the local communities in which we are located,” said Andrew Alford, President of Nexstar’s broadcasting division. “Continuing to give Mr. Kimmel a broadcast platform in the communities we serve is simply not in the public interest at the current time, and we have made the difficult decision to preempt his show in an effort to let cooler heads prevail as we move toward the resumption of respectful, constructive dialogue.”



Jimmy Kimmel lied to millions of people and claimed Kirk was assassinated by a MAGA conservative.

“We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them — and doing everything they can to score political points from it,” Kimmel told his audience.

WATCH:



This is, of course, a lie. Charlie Kirk was gunned down by a far-left, pro-transgender radical who hated him for his conservative political views.

The assassin, Tyler Robinson, lived with his transgender lover and said that if he had the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk, he would.

“I’ve had enough of his hatred. Some hate can’t be negotiated out,” Robinson told his transgender lover about Kirk.

FCC Chairman Brendon Carr on Wednesday threatened to take immediate action against ABC and Disney after late-night show host Jimmy Kimmel lied to his audience and said Charlie Kirk was killed by a MAGA conservative.

Even if there isn't, he doesn't have much left on his contract anyway, as it expires at the end of the 2025-26 season.

We're stuck with Fallon until 2028.

True...

to be clear, I don't think Disney/ABC has healed, but they are having to deal with an administration that enforces laws and regulations.

I'm ok with the end result regardless of their particular motive.


And let that be a lesson to everyone... saying that stern punishment doesn't deter crime (death penalty, long prison sentences).. bull-hockey. If the community knows you're not playing, they'll straighten up -- if for no other reason than out of fear.
