Nerdy but true: A network affiliate like
Sinclair can pre-empt a network show a
limited number of times (depends on the
contract), but then is in breach of its
affiliate agreement and faces penalties
or cancellation. So Sinclair is likely on a
short leash here.

Beginning Tuesday night, Sinclair will
be preempting Jimmy Kimmel
Live! across our ABC affiliate

are ongoing as we evaluate the
show’s potential return. — 4 Paul Farhi @farhip-20h 0} Nerdy but true: A network affiliate like Sinclair can pre-empt a network show a limited number of times (depends on the contract), but then is in breach of its affiliate agreement and faces penalties or cancellation.

@Lazarou What about local advertisers who bought ad time during Kimmel? Do they get refunds if they run something else? Or do their ads run during whatever BS Sinclair puts on instead? And how much ad revenue are they gonna generate from Dead Fascist memorials?
