After the leader passed away tragically, the Internet was divided due to speech issues

MCNBC TV fired political analyst Matthew Dowd for making controversial remarks about the death of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk. Kirk was shot dead at Utah Valley University on September 10, 2025. MCNBC said that his actions undermined his integrity and public trust in a time of grief across the country. President Trump ordered the flag to be lowered at half-mast until September 14. The FBI has detained a suspect, but there is no evidence that he has a direct connection to the shooting. The incident intensified the debate over political violence and campus security, with vigils held across the country commemorating Kirk's achievements.
