"My feeling is this: I don't think he should have been fired. It's a weird thing. The right and the left are always sort of misinterpreting things. He was inaccurate about something. It wasn't like he was necessarily attacking Charlie Kirk. He was trying to dump it on Trump and inaccurate about it because that's what we're living at a time where something happens. Nan"
"On Kimmel's show, the comedian accused MAGA of desperately trying to make out Kirk's suspected shooter as anything other than one of them. The comment sparked backlash, including from Nexstar, which owns dozens of ABC affiliates, which said they would preempt Kimmel's show for the foreseeable future. ABC eventually announced an indefinite suspension. Broadcast group Sinclair has also taken issue with Kimmel."
Adam Carolla defended Jimmy Kimmel amid an indefinite suspension tied to comments about the suspected killer of Charlie Kirk. Carolla acknowledged that Kimmel made an inaccurate statement but argued the response was excessive and that both political sides often misinterpret remarks. Kimmel accused MAGA of trying to portray the suspected shooter as unrelated to the movement, which provoked backlash. Nexstar said it would preempt Kimmel's show and ABC announced an indefinite suspension; Sinclair also objected. Utah officials reported the suspect had been indoctrinated in leftist ideologies. Carolla maintained Kimmel should not have been fired.
