"He's back: Jimmy Kimmel returned to the US airwaves Tuesday night, almost a week after Disney, which owns his network ABC, yielded to pressure from the Trump administration, whose members were upset about remarks Kimmel made following the death of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, suspended the comedian's late-night show. DC-area viewers had to improvise last night to watch Kimmel's return, because our local ABC station refused to show it."
"Kimmel "told the audience that it was never his intention 'to make light of the murder of a young man' and criticized the administration "for threatening comedians and the press." ( WSJ) Kimmel "also praised Erika Kirk, Mr. Kirk's widow, who at a public memorial on Sunday said that she forgave the person accused of murdering her husband," saying, "If there's anything we should take from this tragedy to carry forward, I hope it can be that, and not this." ( NYT)"
