It’s good to be Ilhan Omar. The raging anti-Semite, unapologetic socialist/communist, corruption-riddled congresswoman, and flaming hypocrite can continue to be all of those things and know that she’ll never be held accountable for any of it by her many media admirers.
Over to you, BuzzFeed:
For Ilhan Omar, Identity Politics Are A Necessity, Not A Choice https://t.co/dOFO41UMCw

She’s so stunning and brave.

Seriously, BuzzFeed could’ve saved themselves a lot of time and energy by just posting a photo of her and captioning it with “YAAAAAAS KWEEN.”
Huh weird. Nothing about funnelling campaign funds to her husband's firm.

To be fair, once you read it, you’ll see they did cover it:
There's one mention of it: "repeated questions about" rather than, you know, the journalist getting answers.

Hey, beggars can’t be choosers!
Buzzfeed does a profile on Ilhan Omar. It's weird this isn't worth looking into by a journalist doing a profile, instead of just saying hey you know others are asking questions. pic.twitter.com/L3E9D3uALj

Narrator: It’s not weird given who we’re dealing with.
Repeated questions but hey, who am I to answer them? I'm just a news journalist.
— Stephen L. Miller (@redsteeze) August 4, 2020
Some people asked something.

"Someone should look into that."

It's not journalism. It's stenography. https://t.co/jYjn1Ikzis
