Sinclair Broadcast Group caved and said it is bringing back ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ on Friday evening after a brief suspension.
On Monday, Sinclair Broadcast Group announced they won’t broadcast Jimmy Kimmel Live! across its ABC affiliate stations after ABC caved.
Jimmy Kimmel lied to millions of people and claimed Kirk was assassinated by a MAGA conservative.
Charlie Kirk was gunned down by a far-left, pro-transgender radical who hated him for his conservative political views.
After a brief suspension, Sinclair is bringing Kimmel’s show back.
“Over the last week, we have received thoughtful feedback from viewers, advertisers, and community leaders representing a wide range of perspectives,” Sinclair said in a statement. “We have also witnessed troubling acts of violence, including the despicable incident of a shooting at an ABC affiliate station in Sacramento. These events underscore why responsible broadcasting matters and why respectful dialogue between differing voices remains so important.”
Excerpt from CNBC:
Sinclair is returning “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” to its ABC affiliate broadcast stations beginning Friday, the company said in a statement.
The announcement comes three days after Disney’s ABC broadcast network returned the late night program to its air after a nearly week-long suspension. Disney had temporarily suspended the late night show following comments Kimmel made about the alleged murder of conservative activist Charlie Kirk and President Donald Trump’s MAGA movement.
Broadcast station owner Sinclair, along with fellow broadcast station owner Nexstar Media Group, said earlier this week they would continue to preempt the show, meaning it would be unavailable on local stations for roughly 20% of the country, while they evaluated the situation and continued discussions with Disney.
