A network spokesperson confirmed the show has been &#8220;pre-empted indefinitely.&#8221; This decision follows Nexstar Media Group\u2019s announcement that it would no longer broadcast the program on its ABC affiliates.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"526\" data-end=\"880\">Kimmel&#8217;s comments came during a monologue in which he speculated about the political leanings of Tyler Robinson, the man accused of Kirk&#8217;s killing. Kimmel claimed conservatives were attempting to distance themselves from Robinson while using the incident for political gain. The monologue drew significant backlash from media partners and public figures.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"882\" data-end=\"1172\">FCC Chair Brendan Carr criticized Kimmel\u2019s remarks, suggesting regulatory scrutiny might increase if action wasn\u2019t taken by networks. Meanwhile, Utah authorities confirmed that Robinson had expressed political views opposing those of Kirk, contradicting the claims made in Kimmel\u2019s segment.<\/p>\n<div class=\"twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered\"><iframe id=\"twitter-widget-0\" class=\"\" title=\"X Post\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?dnt=false&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-0&amp;features=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%3D%3D&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=false&amp;id=1968472003586695455&amp;lang=en&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Fconservativebrief.com%2Fabc-jimmy-95192%2F&amp;sessionId=fe9ee323696306875d27aba4acd1d88e70cbb8c1&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=2615f7e52b7e0%3A1702314776716&amp;width=550px\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-tweet-id=\"1968472003586695455\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Secret Service agent who celebrated Charlie Kirk\u2019s<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1174\" data-end=\"1450\">In response to the controversy, Sinclair Broadcasting announced it would air a special tribute to Charlie Kirk in the <em data-start=\"1292\" data-end=\"1311\">Jimmy Kimmel Live<\/em> timeslot. The memorial program will be broadcast across all Sinclair stations over the weekend and made available to other ABC affiliates.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1452\" data-end=\"1766\">Separately, a U.S. Secret Service agent, Anthony Pough, is under investigation after making comments on social media celebrating Kirk\u2019s death.

He has been placed on administrative leave pending a formal review.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1768\" data-end=\"2095\">According to reports, Pough is still within his probationary period at the Secret Service, making it more likely he will be dismissed. The agency reaffirmed its strict code of conduct prohibiting partisan statements, citing the need for political neutrality in its mission to protect public officials regardless of affiliation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ABC has suspended the airing of Jimmy Kimmel Live following controversial remarks made by host Jimmy Kimmel about the recent death of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
