Nexstar and Sinclair bring Jimmy Kimmel's show back to its local TV stations

Sinclair Broadcast Group has decided to bring Jimmy Kimmel's late-night show back to its ABC affiliate stations. This ends a dayslong TV blackout in dozens of U.S. cities. The blackout followed remarks Kimmel made about conservative activist Charlie Kirk's killing. Sinclair stated on Friday that their goal is to ensure programming remains accurate and engaging for a wide audience. They emphasized their responsibility to serve community interests while honoring national network obligations. Disney-owned ABC had suspended Kimmel on Sept. 17. Despite Disney's decision to reinstate him Tuesday, Sinclair and Nexstar initially continued to preempt the show.
