Jimmy Kimmel moves James Talarico interview to YouTube, says FCC pressure kept it off ABC television

Jimmy Kimmel has moved an interview with Texas Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico from ABC television to YouTube due to alleged pressure from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Kimmel accused the FCC of threatening the network and its affiliates over the booking, stating that the commission targeted the show based on traditional editorial decisions. The interview, which will now be released exclusively on YouTube, was originally intended to air on ABC.
