One of the most discussed cases is that of political analyst Matthew Dowd.

MSNBC decided to part ways with him after he suggested that Kirk’s assassination was linked to his polarizing style of discourse.

“Thoughts of hate lead to words of hate, which in turn lead to acts of hate,” Dowd said on air.

His words sparked backlash and prompted the network to terminate his contract.
