Trump didn't fire Kimmel nor was he even fired. ABC suspended his show "indefinitely" (which turned out to be a few days). This was primarily because of pressure from ABC affiliates because their local markets were not happy with Kimmel, not because Trump said so, but because of pressure from customers.
Could you show me good source for it? Trump did censorship by him, he's republican and Trump guy. Proof -> https://edition.cnn.com/2025/09/18/media/brendan-carr-jimmy-kimmel-fcc-first-amendment
Also Trump was happy bout it. -> Trump, a frequent critic of Kimmel and the entire late-night host lineup, first took to Truth Social late Wednesday, Sept. 18, to deride Kimmel's ratings and throw some shots at Stephen Colbert, Seth Meyers and Jimmy Fallon.
"Great News for America: The ratings challenged Jimmy Kimmel Show is CANCELLED. Congratulations to ABC for finally having the courage to do what had to be done," Trump wrote. "Kimmel has ZERO talent, and worse ratings than even Colbert, if that’s possible. That leaves Jimmy and Seth, two total losers, on Fake News NBC. Their ratings are also horrible. Do it NBC!!! President DJT"
President Trump also suggested that he might sue ABC after Kimmel returned to the airwaves, saying, “We’re going to test ABC out on this.” It comes after ABC settled a civil defamation suit with Trump for $16 million last year.
