why is kimmel back

Jimmy Kimmel is back on air because Disney and ABC decided to reinstate his late-night show "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" after suspending it following criticism of his comments about the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. The suspension was initially driven by concerns that Kimmel's remarks were ill-timed and insensitive. After several days of thoughtful conversations between Disney, ABC, and Kimmel, they reached an agreement to resume the show on Tuesday. The decision came amid growing pressure from celebrities, fans, and free speech advocates, as well as concerns about potential regulatory actions from the Federal Communications Commission. This incident sparked a wider debate about free speech and censorship in the U.S. media landscape. Kimmel himself has not yet publicly commented on this controversy.
