Kimmel’s Interview Goes Online | Lawrence News

Jimmy Kimmel’s interview with Texas Senate candidate James Talarico is moving to YouTube after the FCC threatened his show—forcing a workaround to avoid regulatory oversight. This follows a similar move last February when Talarico’s Colbert appearance also went online, both tied to broadcast rules requiring equal political time. With Talarico in a tight race against GOP incumbent Ken Paxton, the episode highlights a broader crackdown on media freedom, as FCC Commissioner Anna Gomez calls it censorship—and ABC has already sued the agency over license review demands, sparked by Kimmel’s joke about the First Lady.
