Toddler Mode: Journalists Fume, Pout Over Accurate Headline That Makes Democrat Look Bad

CBS staffers unleash 'storm of outrage' following report on Abdul El-Sayed's deleted 9/11 tweets. Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers.

Ladies and gentlemen, please keep the journalists in your thoughts and prayers this week. They are working through some very big feelings in the wake of a "scandal" involving a mainstream news outlet daring to publish an accurate story about a Democrat.

The CBS newsroom has been in disarray since Monday, when the outlet posted a story about Abdul El-Sayed's deleted tweets about the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. Reporter Zak Hudak observed, rather obviously, that the U.S. Senate candidate could face "renewed scrutiny and fresh political attack" based on the past comments he scrubbed from his social media accounts earlier this year.

The deleted tweets were not particularly outrageous compared to some of the opinions expressed by El-Sayed's friends and allies—suggesting America "deserved" 9/11, denying the Holocaust, praising the Oct. 7 massacre, and blaming Jews for the JFK assassination. They were just annoying—liberal slop along the lines of "yeah, fine, 9-11 was bad, I guess, but have you considered that America is also bad?"

In one since-deleted post, El-Sayed, a former epidemiologist and public health official, noted that more Americans had died in the COVID-19 pandemic than in the 9/11 attacks, and hoped “that means we’ll spend the next ten years fighting a war for public health & against poverty ... like we launched a global #WaronTerror after 9/11. We could save lives rather than take them.”

In another deleted post mentioned by CBS News, which El-Sayed wrote on Sept. 11, 2021, he said, “Today, I mourn the 3K lives, 6K injuries, & infrastructural devastation in NYC, perpetuated ignorantly in the name of my faith. Tomorrow, I’ll mourn ~1M lives, millions of injuries, & infrastructural devastation in 3 countries, perpetuated ignorantly in the name of my country.”

El-Sayed deleted the posts after scrubbing his entire social media output from before July 2023, with his campaign telling Politico that he did not want the posts to be “taken out of context.”

Creepy MSM's 'teacher's pet' favoritism has been helping Republicans for years now... People who have the least bit of fairness in them are disgusted by the bias and cut us a break.
