NEW YORK - An ABC News correspondent is getting panned for his bizarre empathetic and gushing interpretation of the text messages between accused Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson and his transgender partner which were revealed Tuesday.
Reporter Matt Gutman breathlessly reported from the Kirk assassination press conference in Utah Tuesday — presenting the deranged killer’s apparent confessional texts as “intimate,” “fulsome,” and “very touching.”
“But, also, it was very touching in a way that many of us didn’t expect,” Gutman stated without coercion of the texts sent just hours after Kirk was killed on Sept. 10.
“A very intimate portrait into this relationship between the suspect’s roommate and the suspect himself, with him repeatedly calling his roommate, who is transitioning, calling him ‘my love.’ And ‘I want to protect you, my love,” the apparently emotionally moved reporter said.
“So, it was this duality of someone who the attorney said not only jeopardized the life of Charlie Kirk and the crowd, but was doing it in front of children, which is one of the aggravating circumstances of this case.”
