Nexstar, Sinclair will not resume airing 'Jimmy Kimmel Live'

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -Two major U.S. broadcast owners said they will not resume airing “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” on Tuesday on their ABC affiliates and will instead run other programming, after ABC parent Walt Disney announced on Monday that it will resume broadcasting the late-night talk show. Nexstar Media and Sinclair Broadcasting said they will not resume airing the show on their 70 owned and partner ABC stations, which is more than 25% of the roughly 250 ABC affiliates nationwide. "Discussions with ABC are ongoing as we evaluate the show’s potential return," Sinclair said.
