Jon Stewart, Colbert, Other Late-Night TV Hosts Address Kimmel’s Suspension

Several late-night TV show hosts on Thursday addressed ABC’s decision to suspend fellow host Jimmy Kimmel after he made comments about the late conservative influencer Charlie Kirk earlier in the week.

Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Fallon, and Seth Meyers hosted their respective late-night shows on Sept. 18, with most expressing solidarity with Kimmel. Earlier this week, Kimmel made a statement on Monday’s monologue, saying that “the MAGA gang [were] desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it.”
