‘Go Right Ahead’

Erika Kirk hasn’t stated a lot about Jimmy Kimmel mentioning her husband Charlie Kirk‘s killer on his late-night present … however in a brand new interview, she informed Fox News’ Jesse Watters what she would say to the comic.
As controversial as Jimmy’s feedback had been — they led to a short shutdown of the funnyman’s late-night TV present and an enormous vital backlash — Erika apparently by no means thought-about it a significant subject for her.
She stated, “If you want to say ‘I’m sorry’ to someone who’s grieving, go right ahead. But if that’s not in your heart, don’t do it. I don’t want it. I don’t need it.”
According to Erika, Sinclair Broadcast Group — the corporate that owns and operates almost 40 ABC affiliate stations — reached out to her asking what they may do to “make it right” after Kimmel’s notorious monologue.
Erika says she politely declined a proposal to be on the present or hunt down an apology, telling her staff, “This is not our issue.”
As you understand … Jimmy was briefly suspended from his ABC discuss present, “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” again in September after he went on air and stated … “We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it.”
