Talk-show hosts found themselves hastily adjusting their scripts to discuss Charlie Kirk’s sudden death, which occurred due to a fatal shooting at Utah Valley University on September 10. Many comedy shows tackled this tragic event on September 11, either in their main monologues or as separate segments. However, Jimmy Fallon of The Tonight Show has yet to address the incident or the subsequent response.
Discussed below are conversations led by Michael Kosta from The Daily Show, Seth Meyers, Jimmy Kimmel, and Stephen Colbert regarding Kirk’s demise and the reactions it sparked across political lines.

As a passionate cinema enthusiast, I found Michael Kosta’s take on the political discourse surrounding Kirk’s shooting particularly captivating during his hosting of The Daily Show in September. He started off by stating his moral stance, “I firmly believe that taking a life is wrong,” setting the stage for a comprehensive analysis that followed.
As a movie reviewer, I find myself often reflecting on the current state of American politics and the frequent blame game between Democrats and Republicans. But isn’t it time we delve deeper into the root causes of political violence? Couldn’t it be more than just heated rhetoric?
Perhaps the issue is a complex web of factors, such as our permissive gun laws, a pervasive mental health crisis, and a crumbling social fabric. There are likely numerous other elements at play that I haven’t even begun to consider. And yes, let’s not forget the role that certain powerful entities, like the Labubus, might have in exacerbating these issues.
In essence, it seems we need to look beyond simplistic arguments and instead focus on understanding and addressing the myriad of factors contributing to the problem at hand.
Late Night With Seth Meyers

Seth Meyers discussed Kirk’s passing in a YouTube video before it aired on September 11. He emphasized that mourning and showing empathy should not be influenced by political views, and he strongly condemned any form of violence as it goes against the core values of the country. The host also expressed his sympathies for another school shooting in Colorado that occurred on the same day. Meyers reiterated that gun violence is a major issue in America, urging the need for reasonable gun control laws to address this ongoing problem. He further highlighted recent incidents like the assassination of Minnesota state representative Melissa Hortman and her husband as examples of why such laws are necessary.
Jimmy Kimmel Live!
Jimmy Kimmel, who previously shared a video of his remarks prior to the episode’s airing on September 11, denounced the excessive responses to Kirk’s “meaningless” killing. He expressed that Kirk’s death has intensified our anger and exposed our disagreements, observing an abundance of exceptionally cruel reactions from various political standpoints. Surprisingly, he stated, some individuals are celebrating this act, a sentiment he can never comprehend. Later, Kimmel criticized Donald Trump for not seizing this chance to unify the nation, as former presidents Obama, Biden, Clinton, and Bush did in their statements when faced with similar tragedies.
The Late Show With Stephen Colbert

On The Late Show, the news segment was recorded prior to Kirk’s passing, as Stephen Colbert noted. He then offered his sympathies to the Kirk family during a brief interlude in his monologue. Colbert, who is old enough to recall the political turmoil of the 1960s, expressed his sentiments. “I sincerely hope that it’s clear to everyone in America that political violence does not address our political disagreements,” he said. “Instead, political violence begets more political violence. I fervently wish that this tragic incident is merely the act of a disturbed individual and not a harbinger of future events.
