Charlie Kirk was assassinated in Utah yesterday at just 31 years old. The conservative firebrand was gunned down during the kickoff of his “American Comeback Tour” at Utah Valley University, struck in the neck by a sniper’s bullet while engaging young Americans in his signature Q&A sessions.
As we’ve reported previously, the liberal media’s reaction to the shooting was deplorable, with commentators taking to the airwaves with disgusting observations, such as comments from MSNBC contributor Matthew Dowd, who effectively blamed Kirk for being shot. It was, of course, predictable that the mainstream media would trash him.
Sadly, the print media was no better.
The New York Times wrote an obituary for Charlie Kirk that was a political attack piece in every possible sense. Instead of highlighting his enormous influence on young conservatives and the movement he built from nothing, the so-called paper of record downplayed his accomplishments and zeroed in on criticisms of his politics.
Rather than treating Kirk as a husband, father, and activist murdered in front of thousands, the Times painted him as a “hard right” “provocateur” who spread misinformation, essentially framing him as someone who brought controversy on himself.
"He quickly became a fixture in the Trumpian media sphere. He tweeted relentlessly with a brash right-wing spin, including inflammatory comments about Jewish, gay and Black people. Even some conservatives found his approach distasteful, but not Mr. Trump: One sign of Mr. Kirk’s ascendance was how often Mr. Trump retweeted him."
The paper even sought to smear him by association.
"Mr. Kirk was far from the only young face to emerge in the Trump movement. But whereas activists like Nick Fuentes and Milo Yiannopoulos went too far too early in their embrace of baldly racist and homophobic ideas, Mr. Kirk had an innate polish and was

The New York Times is a special kind of evil.
The “gray lady” is a disgusting whore.
The NYT isn’t good for anything. I used it to wipe my a$$ but the $hit complained.
Bkmk
The left always pushed killing MAGA!
The movie The Hunt was set to release in 2019
The Hunt plot: Depicts group of elites who kidnap and hunt “deplorables” a
term used by HRC to refer to Trump supporters. The victims are released into the wild on the elites’ private manor and hunted for sport.
The literal destruction unto utter desolation of the Hitler- and Stalin-accomodating and conservative-loathing NYT can’t occur too soon.
Unless I am mistaken, Milo is still gay. I take it the NYT editors are really that dumb.
NYT is not fit to line your birdcage
Total filth and garbage
They have ceased being a news source. Now, they are just a sad joke.
Timothy McVeigh’s mistake was that he didn’t park his truck in front of the Bolshevik Times building. /spit
The NYT’s is among those with blood on their hands.
“”Assassination culture is spreading on the Left. Forty-eight percent of liberals say it would be at least somewhat justified to murder Elon Musk. Fifty-five percent said the same about Donald Trump.
In California, activists are naming ballot measures after Luigi Mangione.
The Left is being whipped into a violent frenzy. Any setback, whether losing an election or losing a court case, justifies a maximally violent response.
This is the natural outgrowth of left-wing protest culture tolerating violence and mayhem for years on end. The cowardice of local prosecutors and school officials have turned the Left into a ticking time bomb.””

No, he renounced homosexuality.

The only way to stop media like the NY Times is to ignore them. Stop retweeting their articles. Stop posting about them on your podcasts and social media accounts. when more and more people stop giving them a platform then they will become less relevant. It’s up to us to stop reading and listening to the noise from the far left.
Leftists are the most insidious filth in the world. A pox on all of them.
Imagine how his family is feeling this morning, losing their husband and father:
