Earlier this week, ABC’s late-night show "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" was <a href="https://www.wsj.com/business/media/disney-to-pull-jimmy-kimmels-show-after-kirk-remarks-47b4b400?mod=author_content_page_1_pos_2?mod=WSJ_TJPOD">suspended indefinitely</a> by parent company Disney after Kimmel made remarks about Charlie Kirk's death. The <a href="https://www.wsj.com/politics/policy/jimmy-kimmel-trump-abc-disney-df61df48?mod=hp_lead_pos7?mod=WSJ_TJPOD">announcement</a> came after the chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, Brendan Carr, <a href="https://www.wsj.com/business/media/jimmy-kimmel-decision-behind-the-scenes-e1ecbbf2?mod=hp_lead_pos7?mod=WSJ_TJPOD">suggested the FCC could pull the broadcast licenses</a> of ABC-owned stations, and the owners of some of these stations said they were dropping Kimmel's show. President Donald Trump has said that broadcast networks that are “against” him might have their licenses taken away. WSJ's <a href="https://www.wsj.com/news/author/maggie-severns?mod=WSJ_TJPOD">Maggie Severns</a> reports on Carr's approach to the FCC and how it has led to Kimmel's suspension. <a href="https://www.wsj.com/news/author/ryan-knutson?mod=WSJ_TJPOD">Ryan Knutson</a> hosts.
