The original statement simply asks if Charlie Kirk was shot, without providing any context or information about the event ^{[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7]}. All sources confirm that Charlie Kirk was shot, but some sources may have a bias in their reporting, as they focus on different aspects of the event ^{[1] [2] [3] [8] [4] [9] [5] [6] [7]}.
