If you read Not the Bee you know, but the normies out there are just being lied to.

Nearly three months on from the assassination of Charlie Kirk, the Media Research Center has found that likely voters have no clue that it was a radical lefty who murdered Kirk.

This should be called the Jimmy Kimmel Effect.

No one knows the ideological leanings of the radical trans-lover because the media doesn't seem to think those are important details.

Here's more from NewsBusters:

The poll asked participants the following question:

On September 10, 2025, Turning Point USA Founder Charlie Kirk was murdered while speaking on a college campus. What was the political ideology of his killer?

Options for answers included: 'left-wing,' 'moderate,' 'right-wing,' 'no ideology,' 'other,' and 'don't know.'

The plurality of respondents (27.5%) professed no knowledge of Robinson's political ideology. Less than a quarter - 24.1 percent - identified him as left-wing, while 22.3 percent incorrectly asserted that he was right-wing. Another 13.2 percent claimed he was either moderate or a centrist.

People are just as likely - in essence - to think a radical conservative assassinated conservative activist Charlie Kirk as they are to know the truth that he was killed by a radical leftist.

This brings Rush's "low information voter" to a whole new level.

With nearly a quarter of respondents convinced that Kirk was killed by a right winger, it is inarguable that the corporate media have mangled the facts of the case. But the fact that the most common response was professed ignorance about Robinson's motive highlights another pernicious aspect of the press's approach to this story: their lack of interest.

To left-wing journalists, Jimmy Kimmel's suspension for lying about Charlie Kirk's alleged killer was orders of magnitude more deserving of coverage than the shooting itself. As soon as ABC yanked the show, the corporate media pivoted to focus on what they deemed a case of government censorship. CNN host Jake Tapper called the four-day hiatus 'pretty much the most direct infringement by the government on free speech that I've seen in my lifetime.'

So, just to sum things up, lefties killed Charlie Kirk then the media lied about it and covered up the motive, and both things worked.

Charlie Kirk and the truth were both murdered on September 10th.
