*The View* continues to stay silent about fellow ABC personality Jimmy Kimmel's indefinite suspension from their network. **
For the second day in a row, Joy Behar, Sara Haines, Sunny Hostin, Alyssa Farah Griffin, and Ana Navarro avoided addressing the controversy surrounding Kimmel and his late-night show suddenly getting pulled off the air. Instead, the panelists discussed a passage from former Vice President Kamala Harris' new book and conducted interviews with Lily James and Andy Huggins.
On Wednesday, ABC confirmed that it had put *Jimmy Kimmel Live *on an indefinite suspension after several local affiliate groups, including Nexstar and Sinclair, announced that they would preempt the talk show as a response to Kimmel's comments about Tyler Robinson, the alleged killer of conservative podcaster Charlie Kirk.**

'The View' has avoided discussing Jimmy Kimmel's suspension.
On Monday's episode of *Kimmel*, the host said, "We had some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and with everything they can to score political points from it."**
The *View* hosts' continued silence on the subject follows Donald Trump's appointed FCC chairperson Brendon Carr saying he thinks it would be "worthwhile" for his agency to "look into" the daytime talk show, too.
"When you look at these other TV shows, what's interesting is the FCC does have a rule called the equal opportunity rule," Carr explained on *The Scott Jennings Radio Show*. "But there's an exception to that rule called the bona fide news exception, which means if you are a bona fide news program, you don't have to abide by the equal opportunity rule."

He added that he was "not so sure" that* The View *was considered a bona fide news show and, as a result, it would be required to give the same amount of time to both sides of a story.
"I think it's worthwhile to have the FCC look into whether *The View* and some of the programs that you have still qualify as bona fide news programs," he said, "and are therefore exempt from the equal opportunity regime that Congress has put in place."
In July, Carr spoke about potential "consequences" for *The View *after Behar criticized Trump on the show, with him calling for "a course correction" in media coverage of the current presidential administration. **

'The View' hosts.
"It's entirely possible that there's issues over there. Stepping back, this broader dynamic, once President Trump has exposed these media gatekeepers and smashed this facade, there's a lot of consequences," Carr said at the time. "I think the consequences of that aren't quite finished."**
*The View* hosts previously condemned Kirk's "beyond devastating" assassination in the aftermath of the incident.
Griffin, a conservative panelist on the show, said at the time, "Regardless of your politics, we've got to get to a place in this country where we see people we disagree with not as our enemies, but as fellow Americans with different viewpoints that we need to engage."
