(Reuters) -Disney said that “Jimmy Kimmel Live” will return to the air on Tuesday after it had suspended the talk-show host following threats by the chair of the Federal Communications Commission over comments the host had made about the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

Disney said after having conversations with the ABC late-night host Kimmel, “we reached the decision to return the show on Tuesday.”
