AllSides Media Bias Rating: Center
MSNBC has issued an apology and fired political consultant Matthew Dowd after comments he delivered shortly after the assassination of Turning Point USA co-founder and conservative activist Charlie Kirk that the broadcaster deemed inappropriate.
The statement was posted to the MSNBC Public Relations X account rather than the company's main account, which has drawn some backlash from X users.
