One of the biggest owners of TV stations in the U.S., Nexstar Media, said it would pre-empt airings of ABC’s “ Jimmy Kimmel Live” over remarks the host made about the killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk .
Nexstar said Wednesday that its “owned and partner television stations affiliated with the ABC Television Network will preempt “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” for the foreseeable future, beginning with tonight’s show.” The company said it “strongly objects to recent comments made by Mr. Kimmel concerning the killing of Charlie Kirk and will replace the show with other programming in its ABC-affiliated markets.”
