Stephen King reacts to Jimmy Kimmel’s suspension with a message for ABC

Stephen King has taken a pause from his normal schedule of calling out Donald Trump on social media and reviewing horror films to share his ideas on Jimmy Kimmel’s suspension by ABC.

The Jimmy Kimmel Stay! host and longtime Trump critic was taken off the air after his feedback made throughout Monday’s present about how Republicans had been reacting to the capturing of Charlie Kirk. And whereas Trump, who has been calling for Kimmel’s sacking for years, gloated over the choice, numerous celebrities and different late night time hosts had been fast to leap to Kimmel’s defence.

King has now joined their ranks.

“Do not anticipate companies (lookin’ at you, ABC) to behave morally,” wrote the horror creator on X on Thursday. “Corps care about one factor: revenue$. If you need Jimmy Kimmel again, you gotta holler your head off.”

Kimmel’s suspension got here after Trump ally and Federal Communications Fee (FCC) chair Brendan Carr criticised his feedback on a podcast earlier within the week, and threatened to punish ABC and its guardian firm Disney.
