Description

Conan O'Brien slams ABC's indefinite suspension of Jimmy Kimmel Live! after a monologue about Charlie Kirk's death ignited a firestorm. Broadcasters Nexstar and Sinclair pulled the show, with Sinclair demanding an apology and donation. O'Brien calls the silencing of voices disturbing regardless of political views, while the FCC chairman praises the broadcasters' actions. With Nexstar's potential acquisition of Tegna looming, questions arise about media consolidation and the future of free speech on TV.
