For the uninitiated, on September 17, 2025, Jimmy Kimmel discussed conservative influencer, Charlie Kirk’s assassination in the monologue of his late-night ABC show, Jimmy Kimmel Live!

He said, “We had some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterise this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them.” After Jimmy’s comments went live, Nexstar Media Group, one of the largest owners of ABC-affiliated channels, criticised him and denied broadcasting his show.
