ABC is pulling Jimmy Kimmel after a wave of criticism over the late night host's recent comments in the wake of Charlie Kirk's killing.

Why it matters: Kimmel is among the most high-profile people to face professional consequences for criticizing the conservative activist killed last week.

What they're saying: An ABC spokesperson said in a statement to Axios, "Jimmy Kimmel Live will be pre-empted indefinitely."

Catch up quick: The move comes shortly after Federal Communications Commission chair Brendan Carr warned ABC about potential action over Kimmel's comments.
