Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel won't air his interview Thursday with Texas Democratic Senate nominee James Talarico, on the ABC broadcast of "Jimmy Kimmel Live!." It will instead be streamed on YouTube. Kimmel made the announcement during his monologue Wednesday's episode of his show, explaining that due to "unusual circumstances" related to ABC's ongoing issue with the Federal Communications Commission, according to The Hollywood Reporter, the change had to be made. In September 2025, following the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, FCC Chair Brendan Carr condemned comments Kimmel made about the killing during one of his monologues. The FCC chair suggested that the FCC could take regulatory action or license reviews for ABC affiliations if Kimmel didn't apologize. justthenews.com
