Late-Night Host Returns After Controversy Over Charlie Kirk Remarks
The late-night talk show made its return after a temporary pause, directly addressing the sensitive topic of Charlie Kirk’s tragic death. The host became emotional as he spoke about Kirk and his widow, Erika, highlighting the deeply human side of the loss.
Before the suspension, the host had criticized political responses to the tragedy. His remarks, however, drew sharp backlash from some who felt he had crossed a line, prompting the network to briefly pull the show.
On his return, the host acknowledged the controversy. He clarified that his intent had never been to make light of Kirk’s death but rather to urge empathy and meaningful dialogue.
