More than 6 million viewers tuned in for the late night host’s first show back, which wasn’t available in 23 percent of the country due to affiliate blackouts.

        If it’s big enough news the other % will see it. We live in multimedia age afterall.

        I didn’t realize they were blocking it though. That’s hilarious. Fuckem.

            I thought it started with his firing? It didn’t seem like a show buildup at all. Just bam he’s fired.

              It was a little behind the scenes.

              They’re trying to get the right to own a higher percentage of local syndicate markets than is legal.

              Edit: That article doesn’t really get into it but Nextsar was the first to take Kimmel off the air before dit was ABC-wide.

      A few distributors (Sinclair, namely) refused because they’re malicious

      Basically the whole thing, minus commercials, is on their Youtube account.

      I’m sure there are individual clips from like ABC and random individuals uploading as well.
