Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night “comedy” show, “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” was suspended all of six days before ABC caved to public pressure from the left and reinstated it.

The network originally pulled the show because Kimmel made the following vile comment just six days after Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk was publicly assassinated while speaking on his college campus tour: “We hit some new lows over the weekend, with the MAGA gang 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."

He then went on to make fun of President Trump for his reaction to being asked how he was handling the death of his friend. “I think very good,” he said before quickly pivoting to discussing a White House ballroom renovation project.

Liz explains, "When you are a public broadcast network ... ABC, or NBC, or CBS, you have a broadcast license. You're not a cable news network. You have a broadcast license from the federal government. It's issued by the FCC ... and part of the terms of your broadcast license is that you are to serve the public interest."

But the left spun the narrative that the government strong-armed ABC to suspend the show because Kimmel criticized Donald Trump.

Clearly they’ve forgotten that “he's been [mocking Donald Trump] on a nightly basis for the last decade” and has never been fired for it, says Liz Wheeler, BlazeTV host of “The Liz Wheeler Show.”

“Jimmy Kimmel was not fired for making a joke at Donald Trump's expense. He wasn't even fired for mocking Charlie Kirk, as despicable as he is for doing that. … Jimmy Kimmel was fired for lying about Charlie Kirk's assassin,” she clarifies, noting that Kirk’s alleged murderer has been proven to be a radical leftist.

Kimmel “lied and libeled half of the country,” says Liz.

But that’s exactly what he’s expected to do. As part of the left-wing media apparatus, Kimmel is expected to broadcast “malicious, false vilification of everyone who dared to vote for Donald Trump.”

This kind of hate-inspiring rhetoric is the entire reason Charlie Kirk is dead, says Liz.

“Children, yes, like Tyler Robinson, are indoctrinated with violent, revolutionary, neo-Marxist ideology like transgenderism. This happens in schools from kindergarten all the way through college,” and “the mainstream media and voices like Jimmy Kimmel play a large, even an outsized, role in that kind of propaganda,” she explains.

Whether it’s a teacher celebrating the death of Charlie Kirk or Kimmel’s slanderous lie that Robinson was MAGA and that Trump supporters are a violent gang, it is moral and necessary for them to lose their jobs.

“It's not cancel culture; it's self-defense,” says Liz.
