"Just canceled my Disney+ account!"
"Hit them where it hurts: the $$$"
""Jimmy Kimmel Live! will be pre-empted indefinitely""
""desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it.""
ABC suspended Jimmy Kimmel Live! indefinitely following remarks Kimmel made about the characterization of Charlie Kirk's killer. Kimmel criticized what he called the "MAGA gang," saying they were "desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it." Major ABC affiliate owners including Nexstar Media Group and Sinclair Broadcasting removed or preempted the show; Sinclair demanded an apology and a "substantial personal donation" to Kirk's family and Turning Point USA. Social media users announced Disney+ cancellations and called for financial pressure. Industry analysts noted possible financial incentives tied to pending FCC approvals. Charlie Kirk, 31, co-founder and executive director of Turning Point USA, was fatally shot.
