Along with the article, Mark Ruffalo wrote, “It’s going to go down a lot further if they cancel his show. Disney does not want to be the ones that broke America.” While Ruffalo’s post went viral, the report he shared was inaccurate - Disney’s stock only dipped about 1% on September 18 and 19.Ruffalo’s words hold weight because of his long association with Disney through the Marvel franchise.

In it, she criticized the Trump administration while showing support for Kimmel, saying freedom of speech was at risk.Meanwhile, fellow late-night veteran Conan O’Brien shared his concerns on X. He called Kimmel’s suspension, along with threats to silence other late-night hosts, something that should “disturb everyone” regardless of political affiliation.ABC pulled
