The television station ABC has denied a report that claimed the end of the show "Jimmy Kimmel Live!", calling the information inaccurate. The network described the report as "purely speculative".
Host Jimmy Kimmel has been the face of the talk show for 23 years, making it one of the longest-running late-night programs on American television.
ABC did not specify what may have triggered the rumor about the show's cancellation, but publicly clarified that the information was not true.
This is not the first time rumors have surfaced about the end of iconic American television shows, at a time when the media industry faces growing challenges from changing entertainment consumption habits.
