While Carr complained that Democrats interpreted his comments as a threat to Disney, he didn’t mention that his comments were also interpreted as a threat by several prominent Senate Republicans. Disney suspended Kimmel’s show last week after Carr said ABC affiliates could have licenses revoked for “news distortion,” but reinstated Kimmel yesterday after facing backlash from the public. Kimmel will be back on the air on many ABC-affiliated stations, but not those run by Nexstar and Sinclair, which have replaced Jimmy Kimmel Live! with news and other programming.
