Sinclair is asking Charlie Kirk's widow Erika KINK if they can get Jimmy Kimmel to apologize for his comments.
In a previously unannounced episode of ABC's Jimmy Kimmel's short hiatus, Sinclair Broadcast Group representatives reached out to Erika Kirk, Charlie Kirk's widow, to see if they could help secure an apology from the late-night host.
The letters were revealed by Erica Kirk using an interview with Fox News' Fox Jesse.These questions will be added on Wednesday, November 5 at 8 p.m. on Fox New's 'Jesse Vankhasirime.
"Jimmy Kimmel lied about killing his wife and never apologized. What would you say to Jimmy Kimmel?"Watters asked Kirk in the passage.
"I told Sinclair the same thing," Kirk replied."They asked, I didn't really tell anybody, so they asked, 'Do you want Jimmy to apologize to you? Do you want to be on a show? How can we fix this? Through our team, I answered, I said, thank them, we got their memo. It's not our problem, it's not our fault, but if you want to tell somebody, I don't want to do it, I want to do it'.
Kimmel, of course, was fired from ABC after he made flippant and nonsensical comments about the actions of those who killed Charlie Kirk.
Despite suffering, Kimmel returned the following week, where he received a monologue in which he saved his first speech in response to his interruption.
"I want to be clear because it's important to me as a human being that you know that it was never my intention to kill young people. I don't think there's anything funny about it," Kimmel said.Or maybe it feels like both.To those who think I'm pointing fingers, I understand why you're upset - when I feel that way, I feel good."
Sinclair's acquisition of Kirk highlighted how it would be ABC's partner in negotiations with Disney.Both Sinclair and Nexstar continued Jimmy Kimmel Live!After the show's return, however, such cults did not last long.
It said it is involved in several ABC solutions with ABC.
"In ongoing and constructive discussions with ABC, Sinclair has proposed plans to strengthen policies, viewer feedback, and community dialogue, including a largely independent network ombudsman," Sinclair said in a statement.We believe that such policies can be trusted and accountable.
