Disney+ and Hulu Cancellations Surge Following Jimmy Kimmel Suspension

Cancellations on Disney+ and Hulu surged in September following the suspension of comedian Jimmy Kimmel over controversial comments, with Disney+ losing about three million subscribers. The suspension, which was reversed within a week amid protests and free speech debates, appears to have impacted subscriber retention, although other factors like planned price hikes may also have contributed. Despite cancellations, new sign-ups increased, partially offsetting the losses.
