Astonishing. The US government forces ABC television, the home of Jimmy Kimmel, to reapply for its eight TV station licences "within 30 days", even though they're not due for renewal until 2028. I don't want to accuse the US government of trying to censor the media, because clearly they aren't, and I'm sure they will continue to uphold the first amendment because that's in the constitution, and I love those guys
