Such chickensh-t companies. I think it is more Nexstar than ABC but that could be wrong. The former owns over 200 Free speech, lol....

Nexstar Media Group is set to own or operate 265 television stations in 44 states and Washington D.C. after its acquisition of Tegna closes. As the largest local television and digital media company in the U.S., Nexstar's expanded portfolio will reach approximately 80% of U.S. television households.

ABC announced on Wednesday evening that it was pulling Jimmy Kimmel’s late night show “indefinitely” after criticism of comments he made on Monday about the motives of the man who is accused of fatally shooting the conservative activist Charlie Kirk last week.

Brendan Carr, the Federal Communications Commission chair, sharply criticized Mr. Kimmel’s comments on a podcast earlier on Wednesday.

Nexstar, an owner of many local stations throughout the United States, said shortly before ABC’s announcement that it was pre-empting episodes of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” for the “foreseeable future.”
“Nexstar strongly objects to recent comments made by Mr. Kimmel concerning the killing of Charlie Kirk and will replace the show with other programming in its ABC-affiliated markets,” the company said.
