I don\u2019t think there\u2019s anything funny about it. Nor was it my intention to blame any specific group for the actions of what it was obviously a deeply disturbed individual. That was really the opposite of the point I was trying to make.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Remember, he never actually made a joke about the death of Kirk. In fact, he strongly condemned the assassination the day it happened and sent his sincere condolences to the family. No, he was pulled over his comments about the gunman and the right wing reaction to it all.<\/p>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"min-height:120px;width:100%;float:none;\" class=\"lazy-ad-parent\">\n<div id=\"section-68d381fdb5dcd-paragraph-slot\" class=\"lazyload-unit\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Regardless, he still knows it was wrong and unAmerican for ABC affiliates to respond the way they did, calling out <strong>Donald Trump<\/strong>\u2018s FCC Chairman <strong>Brendan Carr<\/strong> for publicly saying the network would get pressure regarding Kimmel\u2019s comments. If you missed it, Carr went on a podcast and said, \u201cWe can do this the easy way or the hard way,\u201d and \u201cThese companies can find ways to change conduct and take action or there\u2019s going to be additional work for the FCC ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Overall the entire monologue was a poignant message of unity for all Americans and our first amendment rights. It was also one for healing. He ended on a note about <strong>Erika Kirk<\/strong>\u2018s speech from the podcaster\u2019s memorial service on Sunday, specifically her public forgiveness for the assassin. Kimmel said that\u2019s what the teachings of <strong>Jesus Christ<\/strong> are all about it \u2014 forgiveness. Through tears he admitted it touched him deeply, saying \u201cif there is anything we should take from this tragedy, it\u2019s that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Watch it all for yourself (below):<\/p>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"min-height:120px;width:100%;float:none;\" class=\"lazy-ad-parent\">\n<div id=\"section-68d381fdb5dd4-paragraph-slot\" class=\"lazyload-unit\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Jimmy Kimmel is Back!\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/c1tjh_ZO_tY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>BTW, <em>Jimmy Kimmel Live! <\/em>will welcome <strong>Ethan Hawke<\/strong>, <strong>Lisa Ann Walter<\/strong>, and musical guest <strong>Yungblud<\/strong> on Wednesday.
