CNN contributor jumps to conclusions and is left eating crow

She had to eat her words.

CNN guest commentator Hilary Rosen is on the hot seat after she publicly and baselessly panned a Georgetown University sports fan as anti-Semitic — because he was wearing a bacon suit during his school’s recent basketball game against Syracuse University.

It turns out the fan’s name is Michael Bakan, and he regularly wears the get-up just because his last name is pronounced like the non-Kosher breakfast staple.

Liberals LOVE calling everyone Anti Semitic, but in reality they are the most Jew hating douche bags you could ever come across

Except actual anti-Semites.

I’m surprised she didn’t say it was anti-Muslim.

because he was wearing a bacon suit

The only safe way to ask women out these days is to do it wordlessly in a crowd of witnesses while looking as desirable as possible. Seemed like a good plan... what could be more desirable than a giant strip of bacon? But maybe he should have dressed as a Kosher hot dog instead.

I think the point to get out of that is that Liberals seem to have a lot of HATE.

Hilary Rosen. I recall that name. She’s always been an ahole when it comes to reporting accurately.

She should change her name to Hilary Clinton and blame her bad reporting on “Russian Collusion”.

#8. Not a good idea for Bakan to “have dressed as a Kosher hot dog instead.”

Look what happened to Rep. Anthony Weiner when he did that.

The SJW Left is offended by anything and everything.

Must be a miserable existence to be so insufferable all the time.

If that's what he's after, why not just dress up as a giant wallet?
