Just the other day, we marked the fifth anniversary of the 'fiery, but mostly peaceful' CNN chyron of the ages.
They posted that, while their reporter stood in front of burning buildings, without the slightest hint of irony.
Fast forward to 2025, and a pro-Israel group holding a walk in honor of the victims of Hamas who are still being held hostage in Gaza was firebombed by an Islamic terrorist in the name of 'free Palestine.'
Check out how CNN described the attack:
CNN spent the last week fabricating stories about Gaza humanitarian distributions, turning anti-Israel hysteria up to an ear-piercing pitch. Now they're passive aggressively questioning whether the pro-Israel protesters set on fire by the Colorado terrorist were peaceful. pic.twitter.com/jEYa9hKXOH

Now they can put scare quotes around 'peaceful', huh?
It was a peaceful event until Mohamad Soliman showed up with incendiary devices and burned several people.
Every @CNN advertiser should be held to public account for this. Every. Single. One.

How much different would CNN look if Hamas's media stooges were running it?
Where's Jake Tapper?
Isn't he Mr. Arbiter of Truthful Journalism (TM) these days?
They weren't burning any buildings down, so CNN could not call them peaceful.

They were the ones being burned.
So of course, they're at fault.
This is CNN idea of peaceful so the pro-Israel protesters were definitely way below that threshold. pic.twitter.com/IsSmkgf8Vn

We do not despise the media enough.
That’s a vile example of journalistic misconduct.

CNN excels at journalistic misconduct.
Well, it was peaceful.

..until a pro-Palestine terrorist showed up and started lighting people on fire.
Semantics. Semantics.
Funny how CNN seems to gloss over that part of it.
The fact people like Goldberg and French haven't resigned in protest from CNN/NPR/NYT, especially after spending so much time criticizing right wing outlets like Fox News, speaks louder than all of their columns and tweets combined. https://t.co/tMKQhNAwcO

It sure does.
@CNN is the scum of the earth https://t.co/KoBt4VTlQg

We cannot.
Hi @jaketapper, do you agree with your employer that the pro-Israel demonstration was “peaceful”? https://t.co/4S4fhuPT7U

We'd love an answer, Tapper.
And it's not as if they ever abandoned Hearstian Big Lie Yellow Journalism, they just apply it very, very selectivelyhttps://t.co/rt8gvZHIyA
— David Burge (@iowahawkblog) June 2, 2025
Very selectively.
They described the George Floyd riots as "fiery but mostly peaceful" and defended all that damage they caused. Even justifying it

Now they're victim blaming https://t.co/YlfnJXs4ey
They always victim blame when their political opponents are the victims.
