Kirk was struck in the neck by a bullet, allegedly fired from a high-powered rifle, and later died from the wound. the piece criticizes MSNBC for its coverage of the incident,accusing the network and its hosts of <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >showing political bias<\/a> by making disparaging remarks about Kirk before his condition was confirmed.MSNBC host Katie Tur reportedly described Kirk as a divisive figure and speculated that the Trump administration might exploit the incident. Another MSNBC commentator, Matthew dowd, suggested that Kirk&#8217;s own supporters might have accidentally shot him in celebratory gunfire and implied that Kirk&#8217;s rhetoric contributed to hateful actions. The article condemns these responses as insensitive and disrespectful in the wake of a tragic event.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>MSNBC could not put its rabid leftist political ideology on the shelf to just report the facts regarding the fatal shooting of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>Kirk was participating in a Q&amp;A with students at Utah Valley University when a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/breaking-charlie-kirk-dead-age-31-shot-event\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">shot rang out<\/a> from what sounded like a high-powered rifle.<\/p>\n<p>The bullet appeared to hit him in the neck.
