But is it purely commercial?

FCC [Federal Communications Commision] chairman Brendan Carr has threatened to take action against ABC after Jimmy Kimmel said in a monologue that “the MAGA gang” was attempting to portray Charlie Kirk‘s assassin as “anything other than one of them.”

Appearing on Benny Johnson’s podcast on Wednesday, Carr suggested that the FCC has “remedies we can look at.”

“We can do this the easy way or the hard way,” Carr said. “These companies can find ways to change conduct and take action, frankly, on Kimmel or there’s going to be additional work for the FCC ahead.”

Yes. Nexstar, who show Kimmel's show across the US, are going for a $6billion merger with Tegnar. However, in the US, one media organisation cannot access more then 40% of local TV channels, this merger would allow Nexstar to access 80%. The FCC say that they will change the rules, on certain conditions being met. Kimmel's firing was one.

The Mango Mussolini is now after NBC with Seth Myers and Jimmy Fallon's shows now under threat.

So much for free speech and being against cancel culture.
