Walt Disney’s ABC network is taking Jimmy Kimmel Live! off the air indefinitely amid a backlash to remarks the late-night host made about the killing of Republican activist Charlie Kirk. The suspension starts with Wednesday’s broadcast, Disney said in a statement. The company announced the decision minutes after Nexstar Media Group, which owns dozens of ABC TV affiliates, said it would pull the show indefinitely from its stations over remarks that were “offensive and insensitive.” Kimmel, who has been a vocal critic of Trump, accused Republicans of using Kirk’s death to criticize their opponents. In the UK, President Donald Trump Trump leaves Windsor Castle for Chequers, Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s country estate. A celebratory announcement on a British-American tech partnership is expected, but the private discussions are likely to delve into thornier matters including trade and Russia’s war on Ukraine.
