Jimmy Kimmel’s television future is hanging in the balance after ABC suspended his late-night show following the host’s comments about Charlie Kirk’s assassination. The comments prompted dozens of stations to say they wouldn’t air the show, a move that was cheered on by a top federal regulator. The veteran late-night comic made several remarks on Monday and Tuesday about the reaction to the conservative activist’s assassination, including saying that “many in MAGA land" were working to capitalize on Kirk's killing. ABC has aired “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” since 2003. The network acted soon after Nexstar Communications Group said it would pull the show starting Wednesday.
President Trump is cheering the suspension of late-night TV host Jimmy Kimmel. The president called Kimmel’s suspension “great news for America” because “he said a horrible thing about a great gentleman known as Charlie Kirk.” ABC pulled the show after pressure from Trump’s FCC chairman. But the president said it wasn’t a free speech issue. Writing online, the president called for the removal of NBC’s late-night hosts, Jimmy Fallon and Seth Meyers, citing “horrible ratings.”
Turning Point USA posted on X Thursday: "The Turning Point Board has unanimously elected Erika Kirk as the new CEO and Chair of the Board.
In prior discussions, Charlie expressed to multiple executives that this is what he wanted in the event of his death."
Prominent Democrats and pundits are very upset that Jimmy Kimmel got fired from ABC. The left is blaming President Trump for the late night host being let go.
