ABC has pulled “Jimmy Kimmel Live” off the air following host Jimmy Kimmel’s recent comments on the Charlie Kirk assassination Wednesday.
“Jimmy Kimmel Live will be pre-empted indefinitely,” one ABC spokesperson told CNN.
The news came after a prominent operator of ABC-affiliated stations — Nextstar — announced it would no longer broadcast the show “for the foreseeable future,” saying it “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.”
good
No great loss
You hate to see it…
Seriously though, these celebrities must think they are immune to consequences for anything they say/tweet. Why people continue to put so much stock into their opinions is beyond me. They only exist because consumers give them their platform.
karma!
An improvement. Maybe an hour of Bob Ross before bedtime would have a much needed calming effect to enable crazed Kimmel viewers to more easily get a grip.
