Former Disney CEO Michael Eisner on Friday issued a statement supporting Jimmy Kimmel, whose late-night show has been suspended indefinitely by Disney's subsidiary ABC for comments the host made about the killing of Charlie Kirk.

Eisner, in a tweet, blasted Federal Communications Commission Chairman Brendan Carr for what he called "out-of-control intimidation" of ABC and Disney in the hours before the network said it was yanking "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" off the air Wednesday night.

"Where has all the leadership gone?" asked Eisner.

"Maybe the Constitution should have said, 'Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, except in one's political or financial self-interest,'" Eisner quipped in his post on X.

"By-the-way, for the record, this ex-CEO finds Jimmy Kimmel very talented and funny."
