The news that the late night show is taken out of the program indefinitely triggered violent criticism. Now there is good news for Jimmy-Kimmel fans.
After the departure of his late night show, Jimmy Kimmel will come back to US television this Tuesday. This was announced by the Walt Disney Company after the show had been temporarily removed from the program for Kimmel’s comments on the right -wing activist Charlie Kirk last week.
The show “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” Is broadcast on the ABC transmitter, which belongs to Disney. The statement of Walt Disney Company said: The production of the show was suspended last Wednesday so as not to further heat a tense situation in the country. One believes that some of the comments were inappropriate. The past few days have been spent going intensive discussions with Kimmel. That has now led to the decision to resume the show.
The discontinuation of the late night show had fueled a debate about freedom of expression in the United States. It was also unclear whether the show would be continued at all.
US President Donald Trump celebrated the removal of the program on the Truth Social platform as “good news for America”. Like other late talkers, Kimmel regularly takes apart the policy of the US president in a pointed manner. Trump had asked for more broadcasters to take Talks out of the program.
