FCC calling for early review of Disney's broadcast license as Kimmel clash continues

The FCC is moving to review Disney's broadcast license earlier than scheduled, a rare step that comes amid ongoing tensions between the company and federal regulators. The decision follows repeated on-air criticisms of the Trump administration by 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' host Jimmy Kimmel. Regulators have not formally linked the review to Kimmel's comments, but the timing has raised questions. Broadcast licenses are typically reviewed every eight years, and Disney's was not due for renewal until 2027.
