"During his opening monologue for Monday night's show, Kimmel said that many in Maga-land are working very hard to capitalize on the murder of Charlie Kirk, less than a week after Kirk was shot dead while on a speaking tour in Utah on 10 September. The suspect, Tyler Robinson, has been charged with aggravated murder, felony discharge of firearm and witness tampering, and could face the death penalty."
"During his Tuesday monologue Kimmel said, We hit some new lows over the weekend with the Maga gang trying to characterise this kid who killed Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it. On Monday's show Kimmel also criticised US vice president JD Vance for blaming the left for Kirk's death without evidence while hosting an episode of Kirk's podcast from the White House."
ABC, owned by Disney, will preempt Jimmy Kimmel Live! indefinitely and broadcast alternative programming in the slot. Nexstar Media announced it will preempt the show across its owned and partner ABC-affiliated stations for the foreseeable future, citing objection to Kimmel's comments about the killing of Charlie Kirk. Kimmel's monologues accused some in Maga circles of capitalizing politically on Kirk's murder. Charlie Kirk was shot while on a speaking tour in Utah on 10 September; suspect Tyler Robinson faces charges including aggravated murder and could face the death penalty.
