"We have another fun, hilarious administration-compliant show," it said."
"We just kept doing our jobs. We just kept putting one foot in front of the other," Ressa said."
"blatant censorship."
Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Fallon opened their late-night shows with humor and solidarity after ABC suspended Jimmy Kimmel indefinitely over comments about the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Stewart used satire and sarcastic praise of New York while interviewing Maria Ressa, who recounted persevering through 11 arrest warrants by saying they "just kept doing our jobs" and continued daily reporting. Colbert described the suspension as "blatant censorship." Fallon praised Kimmel and attempted to proceed normally before an announcer interrupted and replaced many critiques of President Donald Trump with flattery. Guests varied in addressing censorship and media freedom concerns.
