Jimmy Kimmel is returning to ABC, but some local stations don’t want to air his show.

Jimmy Kimmel will return to ABC on Tuesday, September 23, but some local stations are refusing to carry his show after his refusal to apologize over false claims about Charlie Kirk’s alleged killer.

Kimmel reportedly negotiated his return with Disney executives and will likely address the controversy in his monologue without apologizing.

Sinclair Broadcast Group will not air Jimmy Kimmel’s return, replacing his show with news programming, citing his refusal to apologize.
