Your post deliberately leaves out the statements from the FCC threatening action, which spooked Nexstar who has business with the FCC.

Maybe you weren't aware of this fact despite it being literally the headline shown on the very page you are commenting on:

> ABC yanks Jimmy Kimmel’s show ‘indefinitely’ after threat from FCC chair

Your post deliberately leaves out statements from Sinclair and Nexstar themselves.

"In a statement posted online, Sinclair praised the Federal Communications Commission chair, Brendan Carr and called the comic’s remarks “inappropriate and deeply insensitive”."

"Inappropriate and deeply insensitive", but I suppose you, and the others here like you, believe it is appropriate and timely to spread misinformation as long as it fuels your narrative.

		Were those comments made before or after the direct and described causal threat made by Carr?
