Kimmel's ABC show won't air interview with Democrat because of Trump FCC threats

Jimmy Kimmel announced that his interview with Democratic Texas state representative James Talarico, who is challenging Attorney General Ken Paxton for a U.S. Senate seat, will air exclusively on the Jimmy Kimmel Live YouTube channel. He said the decision avoids broadcasting the segment on ABC’s local stations to prevent complications from threats issued by the FCC under the Trump administration.
