« The View » co-hosts did not address ABC pulling « Jimmy Kimmel Live! » after the late-night host’s comments about Charlie Kirk’s alleged shooter made headlines.
ABC’s « The View » co-hosts skipped the news Thursday that network colleague Jimmy Kimmel’s show had been pulled from the air the day before.
« The View », which operates under ABC’s news division, did not discuss the Disney-owned network pulling « Jimmy Kimmel Live! », a story that broke the night before, dominating news coverage and prompting outrage from liberals.
Kimmel’s show was pulled after the liberal late-night host suggested Charlie Kirk’s alleged shooter was part of the « MAGA gang », sparking criticism from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and two major ABC affiliate owners to yank the program.
The co-hosts typically provide commentary on major headlines and news at the start of the show for segments they call « Hot Topics. » They were outspoken about the cancellation of Stephen Colbert’s CBS program « The Late Show » in July.
