Disney, the parent company of ABC, announced today that late-night host Jimmy Kimmel will return to the air tomorrow night on ABC.

However, this evening Sinclair, which owns 38 ABC affiliates — the largest group in the country — said it will continue preempting Jimmy Kimmel Live! and replace it with news programming.

Local ABC11 WTVD is part of the ABC Owned Television Stations group, which is directly operated by Disney. ABC11's main studio recently relocated from Downtown Raleigh to Downtown Durham.

Nexstar has not yet commented on Kimmel's return to air.

This FREE family-friendly event celebrates the 87th anniversary of the heritage, history, and culture of John Chavis Memorial Park.

Named after Revolutionary War veteran and minister John Chavis — Chavis Park opened in 1937 as a recreational spot for Black residents during segregation. The park featured an olympic sized pool, athletic fields, tennis courts, amphitheater, picnic shelters, and the historic Allan Herschell Carousel.

In 2016, Chavis Park was added to the National Register of Historic Places and underwent a massive transformation.

Reopening in 2021, this time replacing the pool with a splash pad, playground, plaza, and a new modern community center.
