BREAKING: ABC has pulled Jimmy Kimmel Live! off the air indefinitely following comments he made in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s murder.
Trump’s FCC chair, Brendan Carr, earlier appeared on MAGA-centered Benny Johnson’s show and threatened to revoke ABC and Disney’s broadcast licenses if they didn’t take action against Kimmel.
And social media must censor comments, this according to Hilary Clinton.
Kimmel to return

We will see if he behaves differently. I will find out in clips on Youtube or X, because I don’t watch his tv show. I have never found his show clips to be amusing.
Not a commitment

Johnny Carson said it best. The late night hosts should not be doing political banter. The whole late night scene is a toilet.

Federal charges?

(DAILY MAIL) Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel could be probed by federal investigators after telling his audience that Charlie Kirk’s suspected killer was a MAGA supporter.
Federal Communications Commission boss Brendan Carr told conservative podcaster Benny Johnson on Wednesday he was considering an investigation into Kimmel and his network ABC over remarks the host made about suspected shooter Tyler Robinson, 22, in the wake of Kirk’s murder.
Prosecutors say the suspect – who was charged with killing Kirk at a university event in Orem, Utah – had leftist leanings.

Bottom line

This is a good excuse for Disney/ABC to dump a program they are losing money on.
Coud be worse

Kimmel should just suck it up. After all, it’s not like Jimmy lost his life over what he said.
Indefinitely is a euphemism
Mike Barer • September 17, 2025
In TV land, indefinitely seems to mean forever. Those on the Right will cheer, those on the Left will be mad, but we are all hypocrites. Only things we agree with are protected speech in our view.
I remember when this happened to Dori Monson.
A moment in time

I remember that. Crazy stuff.

Disney/ABC will pay off his contract, as required, but he will NOT return to air.
