"Dowd should be fired immediately, declared Watters, adding: I expect him to be terminated within 24 hours. You can't say Charlie deserved to die. Just can't say that, and I hope he loses his job. It's dangerous, Greg. That's the message. It's dangerous to open your mouth, so shut up. That's the message they're sending, and they usually send messages to the politicians, whether it's Trump, JFK, Reagan, whatever. Or John Lennon, you know? Take a shot at the biggest star in the world."
"They took a shot at Charlie to tell you it's dangerous to speak your mind, and that's the message, and you can either take that message and then go crawl into a corner and shut up, or you could do what Charlie would want to do and speak louder, and speak even more clear, to more people, as much as you possibly can."
Jesse Watters demanded that MSNBC senior political analyst Matthew Dowd be fired immediately after Dowd blamed Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk for his own killing on live television. Dowd suggested the shooting might have resulted from celebratory gunfire by a Kirk supporter and said hateful thoughts lead to hateful words and actions, implying Kirk's rhetoric contributed to the attack. Watters condemned those remarks as unacceptable, urged Dowd's termination within 24 hours, and emphasized the danger of silencing speech. Kirk was shot and killed at an event at Utah Valley University. MSNBC president Rebecca Kutler issued an apology for Dowd's inappropriate remarks.
