They fired Kimmel for showing that trump didn't care about kirk dying.

They fired Kimmel to appease Trump and used Kirk as an excuse. And a piss poor excuse at that.

This was inevitable since Colbert was canceled, assassination or not. They were just waiting for an excuse and jumped at the chance. But, with an excuse like this, appologizing statements that were never made, they may as well have said Kimmel ran away to live on a farm. That might have actually been more believable.
