CNN BACKPEDALS After Posting/Deleting Abhorrent Post Framing Bomb-Throwing Jihadis As Victims... and NOPE

As Twitchy readers know, CNN posted perhaps one of the ugliest, most disingenuous, BS posts about the bomb-throwing Jihadis who literally bombed innocent people protesting outside of Zohran Mamdani's residence.

It was SO bad, in fact, and X EVISCERATED them so badly that they deleted the post.

And then they posted this to backpedal about said post:

A post regarding the two individuals arrested for throwing homemade bombs outside of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s home failed to reflect the gravity of the incident thereby breaching the editorial standards we require for all our reporting. It has therefore been deleted.

... failed to reflect the gravity of the incident.

WHAT?!

No. You a-holes made the guys WHO LITERALLY THREW A BOMB AT INNOCENT PEOPLE the victim. We're not about to let that go.

That it is.

I trusted you to tell me the truth for nearly a decade.

I trusted you.

I am still paying the price for that.

We noticed you mentioned "editorial standards". Is this a new feature at CNN?

Now, now, CNN has always had standards ... they're just double standards.

"A post regarding the Muslim terrorists arrested for throwing bombs towards peaceful protesters tried to minimize the severity of the incident and was therefore called out by social media. It has been deleted in an attempt to erase our complicity in the matter."

Fixed it.

Thanks, Aggie.

Deleting that post was literally the worst thing you guys could’ve done since making the post.

So this is all right on brand. pic.twitter.com/yMZvLcaVA3
