TMZ responds to ‘tone deaf laughter’ during Charlie Kirk death coverage

News outlets worldwide have been covering the killing of conservative political activist Charlie Kirk since yesterday. Among them is US celebrity news outlet TMZ, which has been caught in the middle of hefty criticism after laughter and applause were heard in the background of their live stream covering the event.

Social media quickly turned their rage on TMZ, which has now forced the network to apologize and explain what really happened.

Like many other networks, TMZ chose to do a live stream of the coverage following the shooting of Charlie Kirk. A bullet struck the conservative activist in the neck while he spoke at an event at Utah Valley College in Orem, Utah. Hours later, President Donald Trump announced that the 31-year-old had tragically passed away.

As TMZ’s Harvey Levin and Charles Latibeaudiere announced the death of Charlie Kirk on the network’s live stream, laughter was heard in the background. Social media users were disgusted with what they heard.
