ABC pulled Jimmy Kimmel off the air "indefinitely" over his Charlie Kirk comments.

A spokesperson of ABC confirmed to Business Insider that the show will be pulled off the air "indefinitely."

The decision follows comments Kimmel made on Monday's show.

"We had some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them," Kimmel said.

The backlash intensified after Federal Communications Commission chair Brendan Carr publicly condemned Kimmel's comments, calling them "the sickest conduct possible." In an interview with YouTuber Benny Johnson, Carr also warned that affiliate licenses could come under review, and that broadcasters are required to operate "in the public interest."

Following Carr's comments, Nextstar said in a statement Wednesday that it will replace Kimmel's show with alternate programming, and that the company "strongly objects to recent comments made by Mr. Kimmel concerning the killing of Charlie Kirk."
