    Following the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, his widow Erika Kirk told Fox News she doesn't require an apology from Jimmy Kimmel for his controversial "MAGA Gang" comments. After ABC temporarily suspended Kimmel's show, Erika stated that apologies should only come from the heart, saying "I don't want it. I don't need it." The 31-year-old Kirk was killed on September 10 at Utah Valley University by 22-year-old Tyler Robinson.
