Bill Burr's Controversial Wildfire Commentary

News summary

Comedian Bill Burr, appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, criticized internet trolls for their uninformed opinions on the management of the devastating Los Angeles fires, which have claimed numerous lives and caused widespread evacuations. Burr mocked so-called 'fire experts' suggesting impractical solutions like flying helicopters into the ocean amidst 100-knot winds. He argued that the media should focus on insurance companies profiting from the disaster rather than looting, highlighting their refusal to adjust premiums while rewarding themselves bonuses. Burr humorously noted his own evacuation experience, joking about his helicopter being impractical for family escape. Additionally, he controversially supported Luigi Mangione, accused of killing UnitedHealthcare's CEO, pointing out the inscribed bullets found at the scene.
