US EditionDisney says ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’ will return to ABC on Tuesday
ABC reinstated Jimmy Kimmel Live less than a week after suspension triggered by controversial remarks about Charlie Kirk's assassin, sparking protests and a Disney+ boycott involving over 400 celebrities.
- Howard Stern announced on his SiriusXM show Monday that he is canceling Disney+ in support of Jimmy Kimmel, joining Cynthia Nixon, Noah Centineo, and thousands of viewers who canceled.
- ABC suspended Jimmy Kimmel's show indefinitely after his monologue about the Sept. 10 killing of Charlie Kirk, pausing production to avoid inflaming tensions amid FCC Chair Brendan Carr's warnings.
- More than 430 stars signed an American Civil Liberties Union letter Monday calling the suspension a "dark moment for freedom of speech," while Gavin Newsom wrote, "This is a win for free speech everywhere."
- Disney said after talks with Kimmel it will bring the show back on Tuesday, but Sinclair Broadcasting Group and Nexstar Media Group—owning 20% of ABC affiliates—refuse to air it.
- The episode has reignited national debate over free speech and government pressure on media, as critics say the suspension reflected the Trump administration's broader efforts to control media.
