Kimmel's future hangs in balance after ABC suspends his late-night show over Charlie Kirk comments

NEW YORK (AP) — 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 killing. 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.
