Jimmy Kimmel will return to air on Tuesday after his show was suspended following comments he made about the death of Charlie Kirk, Disney has said in a statement released in the last few moments.
“Last Wednesday, we made the decision to suspend production on the show to avoid further inflaming a tense situation at an emotional moment for our country,” the statement says.
“It is a decision we made because we felt some of the comments were ill-timed and thus insensitive. We have spent the last days having thoughtful conversations with Jimmy, and after those conversations, we reached the decision to return the show on Tuesday.”
I’ve watched it. He described Kirk as a young man, choked up while pronouncing violence is never an answer, and praised Howard Stern as a role model of his.
You think that’s brave in the face of Nazis?
And talked shit about the administration the whole time, which is what this was about in the first place.
