ABC News correspondent Matt Gutman apologized Wednesday for angering some viewers by calling the correspondence between Charlie Kirk ’s suspected assassin, Tyler Robinson, and his transgender romantic partner "very touching."

In an Instagram post, Gutman expressed regret over the remarks and condemned the shooting of the 31-year-old Turning Point USA founder.

"Yesterday I tried to underscore the jarring contrast between this cold-blooded assassination of Charlie Kirk – a man who dedicated his life to public dialogue – and the personal, disturbing texts read aloud by the Utah County Attorney at the press conference," he wrote. "I deeply regret that my words did not make that clear."
