Entertainment events — including the airing of TV shows — have been postponed or canceled out of respect for the victims of Tuesday’s school shooting in Uvalde, Texas, where a teenage gunman opened fire at Robb Elementary School and killed 19 children and two adults in a single classroom.
The fatal tragedy spurred sweeping political statements from the White House down to local governments and calls for stronger gun control in the United States, whose number of mass shootings continues to climb at a shocking rate.
The entertainment and sports industries have also been grappling with the shooting.
