Sinclair Broadcast Group reversed its resolution to air a Charlie Kirk tribute on its affiliate channels through the time slot sometimes reserved for Jimmy Kimmel Reside! Earlier within the week, the broadcaster pulled Kimmel’s late-night show following his feedback about Kirk’s assassination and introduced plans to run the tribute as an alternative at 11:30 p.m. ET/PT on Friday.
However shortly earlier than airtime, Sinclair issued an announcement on social media saying the tribute could be made out there on YouTube relatively than on tv. As an alternative, its associates aired ABC community programming — a re-run of Superstar Household Feud. No rationalization was given for the abrupt programming change.
