The comedy host including John Stewart, Stephen Colbert criticizes Kimmel’s comment
The reaction of the comedy hosts was late at night, with the Trump administration mocked a day after the Jimmy Kimmel’s offer from the air after his comments about the assassination of Charlie Kerk.
John Stewart returned to “The Daily Show” with the “Approved Government” program and referred to President Donald Trump in the name of “Our Great Father” and “Dear Leader”. He jokingly said about Trump’s recent visit to the United Kingdom and played a clip of a correspondent question about Kimmel and whether freedom of expression is being attacked in America.
“How dare, sir! How do you dare, sir!” Stewart is edited. “What is the costume with you, sir, Antifa-herald Tribune?”
When the audience screams or expressed panic, Stewart tried in panic to bother them. A group of correspondents delivered a message in complete harmony and the president recorded more praise as if they were living in dictatorship.
Disney said on Wednesday that she is hanging “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” After Kimel made comments about the accused person in the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kerk. The head of the Federal Communications Committee, Brendan Carr, threatened to take action.
“We have reached the lowest new levels during the weekend, as a desperate Maga gang tried to describe this child who killed Charlie Kirk as anything else other than one of them and made everything in his power to score political points from him,” Kimmel said during Monuhouj Monday night.
Officials said Kirk was fired deadly at the University of Utah on September 10 by a gunman who shot from the roof.
Stephen Kulbert, who ends up “late at night”, which appears entirely CBS in a move, said the alleged critics were driven by concerns about the Trump administration, who said he was standing with Kimmel and his employees.
“This is blatant censorship, and it always starts small,” Kulbert said, and he pointed to the administration’s efforts to rename the Gulf of Mexico. “If ABC believes that this will satisfy the system, they will be sadly naive.”
Jimmy Fallon of NBC broke a couple of jokes on Thursday’s episode of “The Tonight Show” and then became serious for a moment.
“To be honest with you all, I don’t know what is happening. No one is doing,” he said. “But I know Jimmy Kimmel, a respectable, funny and loving man, and I hope he will return.”
Fallon, who then pledged to censor, began describing Trump’s visit in the UK but with another voice called positive messages. NBC is a section of NBCUNIVERSAL, and it is also the parent company of NBC News.
Kirk’s assassination sparked an angry response and the formation of fingers, together on the right, blames the left and calls for revenge. The suspect’s mother told the authorities that he “started tending to more left,” according to the possible reason. A text message claiming to be a suspect issued by the authorities says that he had “had enough hatred,” referring to Kirk.
It seems that the events chain on Wednesday, which ended with the withdrawal of the show, starts when Car went at the right PodCaster Benny Johnson’s width and called for Kimmel’s comment. He threatened that there may be a penalty for companies if they did not “find ways to take action on Kimmel.”

Hours later, the NexStar Media Group group in ABC announced the Kimmel show. Then Disney, who owns ABC, announced that she was withdrawing the width from the air indefinitely.

On Thursday, Trump suggested that action can be taken against other networks.
“If they are 97 % against them, they only give me bad advertising, or journalism – I mean, they get a license. I think they may be taken their license,” Trump told reporters in the Air Force. “It will be up to Berndan Car.”

There was a quick reaction to the suspension of Kimmel’s offer, including from Former President Barack Obama The legendary dialogue program is late at night, David Litrman, as well as others who criticized the decision as an attack on freedom of expression.
On ABC, where Kimmel’s show usually appears, an episode of “Family Feud” was broadcast instead of Thursday.
