Actress Jennifer Aniston criticized ABC\u2019s suspension of late-night host Jimmy Kimmel<\/a> during an interview with Elle published Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Asked about Kimmel\u2019s suspension for the outlet\u2019s “Women in Hollywood” issue<\/a>, the “Friends” star called it “horrible” and “unthinkable.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Unthinkable things are happening. It\u2019s very dangerous and very unfortunate,” Aniston said.<\/p>\n

ABC and its parent company, Disney, pulled “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” in September following the backlash the late night host received for claiming that the suspected murderer of conservative activist Charlie, Tyler Robinson<\/a>, was a supporter of President Donald Trump.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it,” he said at the time.<\/p>\n

Kimmel\u2019s comments came one day after both FBI officials and Gov. Spencer Cox, R-Utah, said that Robinson held a “leftist ideology”<\/u><\/a> and was increasingly radicalized in recent years.<\/p>\n

Nexstar Media Group and Sinclair Broadcast Group, both of which own hundreds of local TV stations across the United States, announced they would preempt Kimmel\u2019s show on ABC affiliates “for the foreseeable future.”<\/p>\n

Kimmel\u2019s suspension<\/a> followed. However, some liberal commentators argued that Federal Communications Commission Chair Brendan Carr pressured ABC to suspend Kimmel because he mentioned there were potential “avenues” the FCC could pursue to hold ABC accountable during a conservative radio interview at the time.<\/p>\n

Kimmel\u2019s show was restored days later.<\/p>\n

Aniston, who is friends with the ABC host, told Elle she believed the boycott of Disney-owned streaming platforms Hulu and Disney+ sent a message to the company to bring Kimmel\u2019s show back.<\/p>\n

“But at the end of the day, we\u2019re the viewers. We subscribe to these networks and streaming services, so it really comes down to the people and their voices. All those subscription cancellations spoke volumes,” the actress said.<\/p>\n

Business Insider reported<\/a> that cancellations of the streaming platforms doubled in September, though it\u2019s unclear how many were related to the Kimmel controversy.<\/p>\n

Satellite radio host Howard Stern said that he canceled his subscription that month to protest the decision.<\/p>\n

Describing it as a government attack on free speech on “The Howard Stern Show,” the host said, “I just know when the government begins to interfere, when the government says, ‘I’m not pleased with you, so we’re going to orchestrate a way to silence you,’ it’s the wrong direction for our country.”<\/p>\n

He added, “Now it might sound stupid, but the thing I did this morning\u2014I’m canceling my Disney+. I’m trying to say with the pocketbook that I do not support what they’re doing with Jimmy.”<\/p>\n

Kimmel and his wife, television writer Molly McNearney<\/a>, discussed the aftermath of the suspension during a podcast interview last week. McNearney said she feels anger toward family members who support Trump despite her husband\u2019s opposition to him.<\/p>\n

“It hurts me so much because of the personal relationship I now have, where my husband is out there fighting this man, and to me, them voting for Trump is them not voting for my husband and me and our family. And I unfortunately have kind of lost relationships with people in my family because of it,” McNearney said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
