Conservative broadcaster Sinclair is putting Jimmy Kimmel Live! back on the air. In a statement today, Sinclair said it will end its preemption of the show on its ABC affiliates starting tonight, even though ABC and owner Disney haven’t accepted its request for an ombudsman and other changes.
Sinclair also said its decision to preempt Kimmel “was independent of any government interaction or influence.” Sinclair’s preempting of Kimmel last week came just as Federal Communications Commission Chairman Brendan Carr said TV station owners that didn’t preempt the show could lose their FCC licenses.
Sinclair last week said it wouldn’t air Kimmel on its stations “until formal discussions are held with ABC regarding the network’s commitment to professionalism and accountability.” Sinclair at the time praised Carr for his stance against Kimmel and urged the FCC to “take immediate regulatory action to address control held over local broadcasters by the big national networks.”
