Huh, last I heard was that Jimmy Kimmel is back on air.
If the Trump administration had decided to follow through with their threats, ABC could have sued and won.
Lastly, Jimmy Kimmel could have(and still possibly might be able to) sue for tortious interference.
Nexstar and Sinclair are still blocking their stations from airing him which accounts for a quarter of the US.
They're private companies. If the reason they're doing this is govt pressure (FCC licenses?), that's not ok though.
