Summary
Disney+ is experiencing a wave of subscriber cancellations following ABC's temporary suspension of Jimmy Kimmel's late-night show on September 17, 2025. The suspension was triggered by Kimmel's September 10 statement criticizing former President Donald Trump and the Republican Party, where he referred to 'the MAGA gang' and commented on political exploitation of a tragic event. The cancellations appear to be a direct response to the network's decision regarding Kimmel.
