MSNBC analyst fired for saying Charlie Kirk’s rhetoric got him killed
Share on FacebookShare on WhatsAppShare on TelegramShare on TwitterShare on WeChat

MSNBC has fired political analyst Matthew Dowd following sharp backlash over comments he made implicating Charlie Kirk’s own rhetoric in his death. Dowd suggested that Kirk’s alleged “hate speech” might have provoked violent retaliation, saying, “If you’re out there spewing hate, it’s not a surprise that people might react violently.” He added, “When you live by the sword, you die by the sword.”

The controversy began during a television segment on MSNBC when Dowd referenced a hoax that Kirk had been shot by a supporter celebrating. Dowd used that moment to argue more broadly that harsh political speech sometimes leads to violence. Conservative leaders and pro-life advocates swiftly condemned Dowd’s comments. They described them as a smear against Kirk, who was known for his pro-life activism. Dowd’s remarks are another example of media bias—where conservative voices are blamed for the actions of criminals rather than being defended.

Faced with mounting criticism, MSNBC confirmed Dowd’s dismissal, releasing a brief statement saying, “Matthew Dowd’s comments do not reflect the values of MSNBC, and we have parted ways with him.” The network did not provide further explanation, though it was clear the decision came in reaction to vocal public outrage from both viewers and advocacy groups.

The incident has reignited debates over how free speech is treated in media, especially when conservative figures are involved. Supporters of Kirk say his work as a pro-life leader made him a target, and that blaming speech for acts of violence shifts responsibility away from perpetrators. As investigations into Kirk’s assassination continue, many expect this event to serve as a warning about how quickly political rhetoric can be weaponized—but also how quickly victims can be blamed.
