What are Nexstar and Sinclair, the ABC affiliate owners who issued statements against Jimmy Kimmel Updated 16 mins ago Two ABC affiliate owners spoke out against late night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel ahead of ABC’s decision to suspend the presenter over comments he made about the killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Their comments highlight the influence local TV station owners have on national broadcasters such as Disney-owned ABC. Nexstar Media Group, based in Irving, Texas, said it would pull the show starting Wednesday. Sinclair Broadcast Group, based in Hunt Valley, Maryland, has a reputation for a conservative viewpoint in its broadcasts, and called on Kimmel to apologize to Kirk’s family.
