\n\u2018First Take\u2019 host Stephen A Smith has called Jimmy Kimmel out following the late-night show host\u00a0getting his show pulled off the air due to an ill-advised comment regarding the murd3r of Charlie Kirk.<\/p>\n

ABC announced on Wednesday night that \u2018Jimmy Kimmel Live!\u2019 has been canned indefinitely following what Kimmel had to say about Kirk, who was k%lled during a speaking event at Utah Valley University last Wednesday.<\/p>\n

The 57-year-old accused Donald Trump supporters of trying to score points off Kirk\u2019s d3ath by trying to portray his alleged k%ller, Tyler Robinson, as someone else.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA [Make America Great Again] gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murd3red Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it,\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>Kimmel said during his monologue on Monday night.\u00a0\u201cIn between the finger-pointing, there was grieving.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

He also suggested that Trump was not mourning with a clip of the President quickly changing the topic after being asked how he was feeling, given the tragedy.<\/p>\n

Stephen A Smith Doesn\u2019t Think There Was Anything Funny About What Jimmy Kimmel Had To Say<\/h2>\n

Smith, who works for ESPN, a Disney-owned company just like ABC, addressed the 57-year-old\u2019s comments on his \u2018Straight Shooter\u2019 show on Sirius XM on Thursday, claiming there was nothing funny about what Kimmel put out there.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhere was the joke? Because you\u2019re a late-night host \u2014 and obviously that has a comedic attachment to it. Where was the joke? Obviously, it wasn\u2019t anything funny about that,<\/em><\/strong>\u201d Smith said.<\/p>\n
