“‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ will return to ABC on Tuesday night, the network said Monday, ending a nearly weeklong standoff over the late-night talk show. But not all of ABC’s affiliated stations will be carrying Kimmel’s comeback show. Sinclair, one of the country’s biggest owners of local TV stations, said its ABC affiliates will preempt the show ‘beginning Tuesday night.’ Sinclair said it will air news programming in the time slot instead. … The Kimmel controversy erupted last week after conservatives criticized a Kimmel monologue comment on Monday about the MAGA responses to the assassination of Charlie Kirk.” (09/22/25)
