Kimmel brushes off FCC Chair Brendan Carr's Senate grilling, laments no one was held 'accountable'
Jimmy Kimmel dismissed the Senate hearing about FCC Chair Brendan Carr's threats against ABC, joking it aired on C-SPAN3 and was completely ineffective.
Sen. Amy Klobuchar later referenced Kimmel’s comments in relation to those Trump made after the Reiners' killings, in which Trump said Rob Reiner’s death was “reportedly due to the anger he caused others through ... a mind crippling disease known as TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME.”
Brendan Carr, the Trump-appointed chairman of the FCC, has been accused of improperly exerting pressure on ABC and local broadcasters to cancel Jimmy Kimmel over the late-night host’s comments about Charlie Kirk’s murder - and that his threats were tantamount to a First Amendment violation.
