Jimmy Kimmel ‘f–king livid’ over ABC pulling ‘Live!’: report

Jimmy Kimmel is “absolutely f–king livid” over ABC’s decision to kill his late-night show following backlash to remarks he made about conservative activist Charlie Kirk’s assassination, according to a new report.

The comedian, 57, is “pissed” over the cable network’s decision Wednesday to suspend him and take “Jimmy Kimmel Live” off the air “indefinitely”  after he unleashed hateful remarks about Kirk on air during his monologue on Monday night’s show.

“Absolutely f–king livid,” one producer told the outlet about how Kimmel took the news, adding that the late-night host is currently meeting with the network, the Daily Mail reported.

“This is clearly the government overreaching. There’s no such thing as free speech in America, if the government can lean on companies to stop any content they don’t like.”

Kimmel faced backlash after he said Monday night that the “MAGA gang” was trying to score political points off Kirk’s murder after the right-wing influencer was shot dead on the campus of Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah, on Sept. 10 by 22-year-old gunman Tyler Robinson.

“We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang trying to characterize this kid who killed Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them,” Kimmel said during his monologue.

Nexstar Media Group, the major broadcast company that serves as a primary affiliate for ABC, confirmed that it would “preempt” Kimmel’s program in the wake of his remarks.

Sources told the outlet that the network’s decision is the “last straw” and Kimmel is looking to end his relationship with ABC.

President Trump, however, appeared to dance on Kimmel’s late-night grave shortly after the news broke.

“Great News for America: The ratings challenged Jimmy Kimmel Show is CANCELLED,” Trump posted on Truth Social around 8 p.m. ET — which is 2 a.m. in England, where he was having a state visit with King Charles and other UK leaders.

“Congratulations to ABC for finally having the courage to do what had to be done. Kimmel has ZERO talent, and worse ratings than even Colbert, if that’s possible. That leaves Jimmy and Seth, two total losers, on Fake News NBC. Their ratings are also horrible. Do it NBC!!! President DJT
