Given this liberal P.O.S.'s comments supporting the murder of Charlie K. I'm surprised there wasn't a FCC mega $$$ fine or suspension.

Either way, Goodbye to any advertisers of the show.

2 Sinclair and Nexstar are affiliates carrying ~39% of ABC's crap. Sinclair already said they won't carry Kimmel without a full apology - He's a money-losing pit

3 People are more enthusiastic when McDonalds brings back the McRib for the 40th year in a row. Nobody was watching Kimmel before he was taken off. The Libs will support him for a week and then lose interest. Sinclair can improve performance in the demo by broadcasting a nostalgic test pattern.

4 A test pattern would also be better content.

My concern is some idiot will use a different Test pattern and make this P.O.S. a new Left Icon for gun control.

6 Kimmel was only drawing 129,000 viewers before the shooting, far less than his already-weak competitors. It is remarkable that he stayed on the air long enough to make his rude comments about Kirk. It will be interesting to see if his return outdraws the news programming Sinclair is pre-empting him with in their markets.

7 Perhaps there is some way President Trump can be blamed for Kimmel's firing return to ABC.

8 Kimmel can stay on the air for 30 more years. I'll never watch that cry-baby turd (remember when he cried over a shot lion in Africa?). Same for that vaccine lover Colbert. Those two dooooshies are irrelevant to me.

9 Jimmy Kimmel TV Comeback Collapsing as Sinclair Broadcasting Group Says It Won’t Air Show on Its ABC Stations

10 Going to get corrections from the supporters who were running around yelling Trump had him fired, or nah?

And all them saying, "I'm Jimmy Kimmel" are taking a big risk with his private enjoyments.
