Singlair and Nexstar to return Kimmel to ABC stations

Jimmy Kimmel Live! It will now appear again on all ABC channels.

Sinclair Broadcast Group and NexStar Media Group announced on Friday that it will return the offer to its subsidiaries ABC after a week -long ban.

The two companies, which carry dozens of ABC stations throughout the United States, withdrew the program due to the comments made by Kimmel about the death of Charlie Kerk.

Sinclair decided to return the dialog program late at night after “studied reactions from viewers, advertisers and community leaders.”

Kimmel was also briefly suspended from both ABC, and returned to the network on Tuesday.

“I never wanted to light the killing of a young man.”

By lifting a blackout, the Sinklir and Nixar viewers can in cities such as Washington, DC, Nashville, New Orleans and Sayattle, can see Kimmel’s offer again.

“Continue and constructive,” Senkler said in a press release with ABC and the mother company Disney. The media group said it had proposed measures to enhance “accountability” inside Disney.

He said that none of these measures were adopted.

NexStar also cited positive discussions with ABC, saying in a press statement, “They appreciate their constructive approach to address our fears.” The company said it was “committed to protecting the first amendment.”

Kimmel fell in the hot water after Monuhuj on September 15 on the death of Kirk Kirk.

He said that US President Donald Trump and his allies were “trying desperately describing this child who killed Charlie Kerk as anything other than one of them” and trying to “score political points from him.”

Trump’s response to the murder of the influencer was also likened to “How a four -year -old is barking of a golden fish.”

The head of the Federal Communications Committee (FCC), Brendan Car, who was appointed by Trump, threatened to cancel the ABC broadcasting license during an interview with a portfast.

After Car’s comments, Senkler and Nixar said they would stop broadcasting the offer on dozens of ABC companies.

ABC then pulled the width completely from the air.

This has sparked discussions at the level of freedom of expression, including online trends for people who cancel Disney+contributions.

Disney announced on Monday that Kimmel would return to the air, but Snkir and Nixar are sure they would not be broadcast.

Its show on Tuesday with record reviews, with 6.26 million people watched live on the air despite a quarter of the ABC stations that are not broadcasting.

Kimmel expressed his regret for his previous jokes about Kirk, but he also went after Trump and Kale for what he called “mob” control tactics.

“Our leader celebrates the people who lose their livelihoods because he cannot joke,” Kimmel said, adding that Trump is openly rooted to people to lose their jobs that were “non -American” and “dangerous”.

Trump was publicly disappointed in re -Kimmel.

“I can’t believe that ABC’s fake news gave Jimmy Kimil his job,” he wrote in a post on social media.
