In The Update Journal: Jimmy Kimmel Live is suddenly off the air after his Monday night monologue sparked outrage over comments about Republicans and the Charlie Kirk fallout. We’ll take a step back from the headlines and look at the bigger picture—what this means for late-night comedy, why advertisers panic faster than I do when my phone battery hits 2%, and whether this might mark the beginning of the end for an institution that used to be America’s bedtime ritual.

In the headlines on The Update this Thursday, a proposed Caesars Palace casino in Times Square that’s backed by Jay-Z lost its bid for a gambling license after running into fierce opposition from Broadway theater owners and producers who were worried about its potential impact on the theater district.

Mayor Adams threw his support behind a proposal to end the horse-drawn carriages that have been fixtures in Central Park for more than 150 years as he ordered police to more stringently enforce laws already on the books to rein in the industry.

And ABC suspended Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show indefinitely after comments that he made about Charlie Kirk’s killing led a group of ABC-affiliated stations to say it would not air the show and provoked some ominous comments from a top federal regulator.
