Kimmel Will Not Air Talarico Interview After FCC Threats…
Jimmy Kimmel will not air his interview with Texas senate candidate James Talarico after threats from the FCC, the late night host shared Wednesday.
During Wednesday’s monologue for “Jimmy Kimmel Live!,” the comedian explained that he would release a sit down with Talarico on his YouTube channel, rather than broadcasting it on ABC.
“I’ll be interviewing James Talarico tomorrow night under unusual circumstances,” Kimmel said. “You know, for the whole 20-plus years of our show, in fact, I’ve been interviewing Americans who are running for office with no problem at all, just like [David] Letterman did, [Jay] Leno did, Arsenio [Hall], etc., etc.”
He added: “I’ve interviewed a lot of political candidates from Hillary Clinton to Ted Cruz to Donald Trump himself. I interviewed Donald Trump when he was running for president in 2015.”
White House Censoring Dem Star…
Jimmy Kimmel has revealed how the Trump administration intervened to censor an interview on his late-night talk show with a rising Democratic star.
Last year, Trump-appointed Federal Communications Commission Chair Brendan Carr used his power to get Jimmy Kimmel Live! taken off air for a week, after complaining about comments made about the MAGA reaction to the murder of right-wing activist Charlie Kirk.
Now, history is repeating, with Kimmel pulling an interview with Democrat James Talarico—a regular target of President Donald Trump’s taunts—that had been due to air on Thursday night.
