Center for American Rights Files FCC Complaint Against ABC, Jimmy Kimmel for ‘Unlawful Politicking’—
The Center for American Rights, a conservative watchdog group, has filed an FCC complaint against ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live! for engaging in “unlawful politicking” and breaking the network’s broadcast licensing rules.
In its complaint, the group accuses Jimmy Kimmel of improperly using public airwaves by using his platform to push solely for far-left, Democrat policies and politicians that he donated to without disclosing those contributions to his audience.
“Late-night hosts are notorious for using their airtime to support the left and disparage the right. ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel is perhaps the worst offender,” said Daniel Suhr, president of the Center for American Rights, The Wrap reported. “What’s no laughing matter is Kimmel’s consistent disregard for the FCC’s conflict-of-interest policies, which prohibit using the airwaves to advance his personal political agenda.”
