Jimmy Kimmel has claimed that he and his show have been “threatened” by the FCC with dire consequences if they air an interview with Democratic Texas Senate candidate James Talarico. Kimmel announced the move during his Wednesday night monologue, talking us through the intense pressure behind the scenes regarding Talarico.
The talk-show host struck an ominous tone as he pointed out, “For a lot of years, for the whole 20-plus years of our show, in fact, I’ve been interviewing Americans who are running for office with no problem at all.” He said he’s had no issues interviewing everyone “from Hillary Clinton to Ted Cruz, to Donald Trump himself.”
