Jimmy Kimmel's late-night show has been indefinitely suspended by ABC following complaints from FCC chair Brendan Carr about Kimmel's monologue regarding the death of Charlie Kirk. Nexstar and Sinclair also objected, preempting the show. This sparked widespread calls for a boycott of Disney (ABC's parent company), Nexstar, and Sinclair, citing censorship and threats to free speech. The boycott is gaining traction online and among political advocacy groups. Trump celebrated the suspension, while Democrats are demanding Carr's resignation.
