Sep 29, 2025 3:25 AM

06:07 AM EDT, 09/29/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Nexstar Media ( NXST ) said Friday that "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" will return to the television stations affiliated with Walt Disney's ( DIS ) ABC television network, effective immediately.

The company said the decision to return the show, pre-empted after the comedian made a joke about the assassination of rightwing influencer Charlie Kirk, followed discussions with Disney ( DIS ) executives.

"Nexstar remains committed to protecting the First Amendment while producing and airing local and national news that is fact-based and unbiased and, above all, broadcasting content that is in the best interest of the communities we serve," the company said, denying that government statements or actions influenced any of its decisions.
