00:00But I do want to make something clear because it's important to me as a human, and that is,

00:04you understand that it was never my intention to make light of the murder of a young man.

00:10A defiant and emotional Jimmy Kimmel returned to the air Tuesday night and teared up as he

00:15praised Kirk's widow, Erica, and insisted it was never his intention to make light of the murder.

00:21He admitted his remarks may have felt ill-timed or unclear, but stressed that the alleged killer

00:26does not represent any political movement, calling him a sick person.

00:30The late-night host referenced the moment at Kirk's memorial when Erica Kirk publicly

00:35forgave her husband's alleged killer, calling it a profound act of grace that deeply moved him.

00:41That young man, I forgive him.

00:50But the controversy didn't end there.

00:52Just before the broadcast, President Trump blasted ABC for reinstating Kimmel, fuming

00:58that the comedian was not funny, and accusing the network of risking its reputation.

01:03I can't believe ABC fake news gave Jimmy Kimmel his job back.

01:08The White House was told by ABC that his show was canceled.

01:11Something happened between then and now because his audience is gone, and his talent was never there.

01:31illegal campaign contribution.

01:47Kimmel used his 28-minute opening monologue to take more jabs at Trump and FCC Chairman

01:53Brendan Carr, while only jokingly referencing Disney, which had suspended his show for nearly

01:58a week.

01:59Brendan Carr is the most embarrassing car Republicans have embraced since this one.

02:06However, not all ABC stations aired his return.

02:13Sinclair and Nextstar, two of the biggest affiliate owners, announced they would replace Jimmy Kimmel

02:18Live with local news programming instead.

02:21With boycotts, backlash, and mounting pressure on Disney, the late-night host's comeback

02:26has left viewers and the industry to debate over whether his remarks crossed the line or

02:31if his suspension went too far.
