Very few watch it - big influencers on social media have far larger audiences. In fact I think that’s also why the show being taken off air was polarizing. A lot of people watching clips of Kimmel during this controversy didn’t see the part left out of most clips shown in news articles, where Kimmel painted people mourning Kirk as toddlers mourning a goldfish or something like that. I think that would be offensive / insensitive to a lot more people than are currently offended.
