Nexstar and Sinclair – What’s Next?
WE HAVE FRIENDS EVERYWHERE
On September 17th, Disney-ABC yanked Jimmy Kimmel Live off the air—just hours after the FCC Chair Brendan Carr threatened the company over Kimmel’s comments about Charlie Kirk’s murderer. Make no mistake: this is what creeping fascism looks like—media silenced and censored for daring to dissent. It comes only months after The Late Show with Stephen Colbert was cancelled at the president’s request, and now Trump is publicly calling for Jimmy Fallon and Seth Meyers to be “next.”
And there’s a bigger picture here… Nexstar Media Group and Sinclair Broadcast Group own the largest number of local ABC affiliates. Nexstar is currently seeking approval from the FCC for business deals. You know who else is seeking approval, ESPN (owned by Disney) to buy the NFL Network. In other words these media giants have every incentive to bend the knee to authoritarian pressure coming from the FCC to get their deals across the finish line.

Comedy isn’t the only thing under attack.
You might think this is just another late-night headline. But it’s not. When voices in media, comedy, and culture are silenced for challenging the status quo, it’s a warning sign for all of us.
This isn’t about one celebrity. It’s about the growing effort to limit what we can say, what we can hear, and how we can challenge power. If comedians aren’t safe, neither are organizers, educators, or everyday people who dare to speak truth.
