Emily, he didn't apologize because he didn't say anything wrong in the first place. He was correct when he said MAGA was desperate to paint the shooter as not one of their own, he never said that the shooter WAS MAGA, and he criticized Trump's callous reaction to Kirk's death.
Are Emily’s “friends” just her other personalities?
He never made light of the killing. He didn’t owe an apology.
He never made fun of Charlie being killed, he didnt need to apologize. He just clarified.
A VICTORY FOR FREE SPEECH 🎉 RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES 👀
Republicans calling out Kimmel for inaccurate broadcasting is fucking rich.
Wasn’t comedy supposed to be “legal again” or something?
Oh Emily you're upset about misinformation now 😂😂😂
Hearing her say for the public good was cringier than anything Kimmel has ever said. Do maga people ever pass by any mirrors?
I love how the public is holding a late night talk show host to a higher moral/truth-telling standard than Fox news or the President of the United States.🤷♀🤯
