Guy Benson Show

Joe Concha, Fox News Contributor and author of The Greatest Comeback Ever: Inside Trump's Big Beautiful Campaign, joined The Guy Benson Show today to react to some of the insane media takes following the Charlie Kirk assassination. Concha pushed back on the bizarre framing of Charlie Kirk's assassin's text messages by ABC's Matt Gutman, who appeared to romanticize and sympathize with the killer, and Concha said he would have fired Gutman for the comments. Concha also weighed in on the "cancellation" of Jimmy Kimmel, explaining why he sees it as a free market issue rather than a free speech one, and argued that Kimmel deserves real repercussions for his actions.
