University of Delaware Condemns Student TV Credit Thanking 'Charlie Kirk’s Killer'

The university denounced the line after the episode was reuploaded without the credits, prompting fresh scrutiny of oversight at the student-run network.

Overview

  • A recent episode of STN49’s The Bi-Weekly Show listed “Charlie Kirk’s Killer” in its end credits before the credits were removed and the video was reuploaded.
  • University officials said a student raised concerns immediately after the live stream and the credits were stripped within hours before posting to the site.
  • The student network is run by students under the University of Delaware’s Department of Communication with a designated faculty adviser, according to bylaws.
  • Delaware GOP officials publicized screenshots and demanded an investigation, arguing the program uses taxpayer-supported resources and university oversight.
  • The Federalist reported an internal message urging students not to speak to the press, and the university has not announced any disciplinary action.
