Fact check: Charlie kirk saying if his daughter was raped, he would make her have the baby.

1. Summary of the results

The original statement claims that Charlie Kirk said if his daughter was raped, he would make her have the baby. According to ^[1], Charlie Kirk indeed stated that "the baby would be delivered" if his daughter were raped and became pregnant, underscoring his rigid opposition to abortion ^[1]. Similarly, ^[2] supports this claim, stating that Charlie Kirk responded to a question about his daughter being raped and pregnant by saying "the baby would be delivered", highlighting his unwavering stance against abortion ^[2]. However, other sources, such as ^[3] and ^[4], do not mention Charlie Kirk's views on abortion in the context of his daughter being raped, but rather discuss his debates on abortion, women's rights, and religion ^[3], and his support for conservative Christian values and opposition to abortion ^[4]. Additionally, ^[5] mentions that Charlie Kirk argued that there should be no exceptions for abortion, even in cases of rape, but does not quote him saying if his daughter was raped, he would make her have the baby ^[5].

2. Missing context/alternative viewpoints

Some sources, such as ^[3] and ^[4], provide context on Charlie Kirk's views on abortion and his debates on related topics, but do not specifically address the claim in question ^{[3] [4]}. Other sources, like ^[6] and ^[4], focus on Charlie Kirk's legacy and the reaction to his death among his followers, without mentioning the specific claim ^{[6] [4]}. Furthermore, ^[7] does not provide any relevant information to support or contradict the claim, as it appears to be a Facebook login page with no mention of Charlie Kirk or his views on abortion ^[7]. Key points to consider are Charlie Kirk's consistent opposition to abortion, his debates on related topics, and the lack of direct quotes from Charlie Kirk on the specific scenario mentioned in the original statement, except for the reports in ^[1] and ^[2].

• The sources that support the claim, ^[1] and ^[2], highlight Charlie Kirk's rigid opposition to abortion ^{[1] [2]}.
• The sources that do not mention the claim, ^[3], ^[4], ^[6], and ^[4], provide context on Charlie Kirk's views on abortion and his legacy ^{[3] [4] [6]}.
• The source that does not provide relevant information, ^[7], is not useful in assessing the claim ^[7].

3. Potential misinformation/bias in the original statement

The original statement may be misrepresented or taken out of context, as some sources, such as ^[1] and ^[2], report Charlie Kirk's statement as "the baby would be delivered" if his daughter were raped and became pregnant, which may not be exactly the same as saying he would "make her have the baby" ^{[1] [2]}. Additionally, the lack of direct quotes from Charlie Kirk in most sources, except for the reports in ^[1] and ^[2], may indicate that the original statement is based on secondary or indirect information. The sources that support the claim, ^[1] and ^[2], may benefit from highlighting Charlie Kirk's rigid opposition to abortion, while the sources that do not mention the claim, ^[3], ^[4], ^[6], and ^[4], may benefit from providing a more nuanced view of Charlie Kirk's views on abortion and his legacy ^{[3] [4] [6]}.
