In this Jan. 3, 2017 image released by ABC, host Jimmy Kimmel appears during "Jimmy Kimmel Live"  in Los Angeles. Kimmel's tearful account of his newborn son's heart surgery reverberated widely across social media, turning a monologue seen by a relatively small late-night TV audience into something far more potent. While "Jimmy Kimmel Live" drew its average of about 2 million viewers Monday, May 1, 2017, the host's comments earned an online megaphone that made it a top news story reaching all the way to Washington and the health-care debate.
