ABC has indefinitely pulled Jimmy Kimmel Live! From the airwaves. FCC chairman Brendan Carr took issue with Kimmel’s comments on Benny Johnson’s podcast. In some unsubtle statements, he urged ABC to discipline Kimmel. “There are avenues here for the FCC, so there are some ways in which I need to be a little careful, because I could be called wholly to become a judge on some of these claims that come up.”
Carr continued, “Frankly, when you see stuff like this, I mean, we can do this the easy way, or these companies can find ways to change conduct, to take action, frankly, or Kimmel, or these going to be additional work for the FCC ahead.”
