Not on all stations...
a CM calendar at work is A-OK
https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/nexstar-not-air-jimmy-kimmel-145709911.html Nexstar said in a statement Tuesday morning: “We made a decision last week to preempt ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ following what ABC referred to as Mr. Kimmel’s ‘ill-timed and insensitive’ comments at a critical time in our national discourse. We stand by that decision pending assurance that all parties are committed to fostering an environment of respectful, constructive dialogue in the markets we serve.”
The company continued, “In the meantime, we note that ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ will be available nationwide on multiple Disney-owned streaming products, while our stations will focus on continuing to produce local news and other programming relevant to their respective markets.”
Nexstar operates 28 ABC-affiliated stations. Its decision comes after Sinclair, another big station group, announced Monday it will preempt “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” across the 38 ABC local stations it operates beginning Tuesday, despite Disney’s end of the Kimmel suspension. “Beginning Tuesday night, Sinclair will be preempting ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!‘ across our ABC affiliate stations and replacing it with news programming,” a Sinclair representative said in a statement. “Discussions with ABC are ongoing as we evaluate the show’s potential return.”
Nexstar and Sinclair’s refusal to air “Kimmel” means that nearly one-third of the roughly 240 national ABC stations will not carry the program for the time being.
