Democrats on the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform announced an investigation into the cancellation of the "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" show over the host's comments about the suspect in the Charlie Kirk assassination.
Kimmel suggested that Tyler Robinson was a supporter of the "Make America Great Again" movement in the opening monologue of his show on Monday. By Wednesday, the ABC television network announced it would pull the show indefinitely after Nexstar Media Group said it was pre-empting the show on stations it owned.
Democrats and other critics of President Donald Trump have since claimed that Kimmel's firing was politically motivated and point to comments from the head of the Federal Communications Commission against Kimmel.
On Thursday, Rep. Robert Garcia (D-Calif.), the top Democrat of the Oversight Committee, announced the investigation.
