ABC (American Broadcasting Company)

The FCC has initiated an early review of ABC's broadcast licenses following pressure from President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump, who called on ABC to fire late-night host Jimmy Kimmel. The move comes amid an ongoing public dispute between Trump and Kimmel.

President Donald Trump demanded Disney fire Jimmy Kimmel after the late-night host joked that First Lady Melania Trump resembled an 'expectant widow' in a skit about the White House Correspondents' Dinner. The skit aired days before a real-life armed gunman attempted an assassination at the event, which Trump and Melania attended. Trump interpreted Kimmel's comment as an incitement to violence against him.
