NEW YORK — President Donald Trump won't be getting his wish, at least not soon.
ABC says that it has signed late-night comic Jimmy Kimmel to a one-year contract. His previous multiyear contract had been set to expire in May 2026, so this will keep him on the air at least until May 2027.
The network had suspended Kimmel in September following remarks made after GOP activist Charlie Kirk's assassination, but put him back on the air following a public protest.
He continued poking fun at the president relentlessly, leading Trump to urge ABC last month to “get the bum off the air.”
