Local leaders respond to the preemption of "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" following remarks he made on the program about the Charlie Kirk assassination.

A 64-year-old man who police said fired three shots into a local ABC studio after Jimmy Kimmel was suspended this week reportedly had an X account that showed a clear "anti-Trump" stance

The network’s decision comes after affiliate group Nexstar said it would pull the late night show, and the chairman of the FCC suggested he might take action against ABC.

ABC has indefinitely pulled "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" from its network following comments made by the host. The decision is part of a much larger picture of the business of local and national TV.

Jimmy Kimmel’s comments on the murder of conservative activist Charlie Kirk weren’t just noxiously offensive and seemingly misleading – their timing was also incredibly bad.

Kimmel was suspended Wednesday by Disney, ABC’s parent company, after Federal Communications Commission chairman Brendan Carr pressured local affiliates to “take actions on Kimmel” over comments the comedian made about conservative activist Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated Sept. 10.
