💨 Abstract

Jimmy Kimmel's late-night show was pulled from air by ABC after FCC Chairman Brendan Carr threatened to revoke broadcasting licenses due to Kimmel's comments about the killing of conservative influencer Charlie Kirk. The move was criticized as government censorship but celebrated by Donald Trump, who urged further removals of late-night shows. The controversy follows Kirk's shooting death, with conservatives blaming "the radical left." Kimmel had mocked Trump's reaction to Kirk's death. Democrats condemned the action as censorship.
