You thought the Jimmy Kimmel firing had something to do with what Kimmel actually said?
Don’t be silly.
It’s about keeping convicted felon Donald happy so his minions won’t block corporate mergers:
"ABC silenced late-night comedian Jimmy Kimmel yesterday, taking his talk show off the air indefinitely.

The move came after Brendan Carr, Donald Trump’s pet FCC chair, threatened to take action against the network’s affiliate stations, and after Nexstar, a company that owns 32 ABC affiliates, announced that it would preempt Kimmel’s show. Hey, big surprise! Nexstar is pursuing a $6.2 billion merger with another media company, Tegna, that can’t go forward without FCC approval."

Biden's White House is taking on corporate mergers, landlord junk fees and food prices

The Biden administration is proposing new guidelines for corporate mergers, taking steps to disclose junk fees charged by landlords and launching a crackdown on price-gouging in the food industry. Wednesday's announcements will be discussed when President Joe Biden meets with his White House Competition Council. The council is a group of administration officials established under a 2021 executive order with the goal of improving competition within the U.S. economy and helping consumers. Attorney General Merrick Garland says the proposed guidelines “respond to modern market realties.” Republican lawmakers and some business group critics say the Democratic president's effort will lead to greater regulatory costs that leave the economy worse off.
