A freelance reporter has lost his job at digital company INE Entertainment after tweeting he wanted Covington Catholic High School students and their parents to die in the wake of a video involving Native American protesters in Washington DC.
Erik Abriss lost his job as a post-production supervisor at INE in the wake of the comments aimed towards teenage students who attend the school in Kentucky.
Abriss, who also contributes to New York Medias entertainment site Vulture, was reacting to the viral video that at first appeared to show MAGA hat-wearing Nick Sandmann confronting a Native American man during a March for Life rally, which coincided with the Indigenous Peoples March.
Subsequent video footage of the incident appeared to show the Native America man, identified as Nathan Phillips, approaching the students after they were being yelled at by another group at the rally, the Black Hebrew Israelites.
I dont know what it says about me but Ive truly lost the ability to articulate the hysterical rage, nausea, and heartache this makes me feel. I just want these people to die. Simple as that. Every single one of them. And their parents, Abriss tweeted in response to the original video of Sandmann.

Good. It’s a start....................
Good!! The ONLY way to stop this insanity is for people to SUE and lose their jobs. Money talks..and if these morons have to lose their wealth as a result of behaving like jackasses than so be it. Go after Debra Messing, Kathy Griffin, Alyssa Milano, and every other celebrity a-hole who made threats against these kids
...now he can go big time and work for CNN...
Well it’s not the ONLY way......but it’s a start.
So some crappy internet news-feed fires a guy who didn't work for them anyway.
That's OK, Eric, I know what it says about you, and so do a lot of other normal people.
Why isn’t he up on criminal charges?
He also contributes to the New York media site Vulture.
How appropriate ....
Journalist come pretty cheap these days.
he’ll be a hollyweird hero..............
>>Journalist come pretty cheap these days.
Remember back in your high school/college days, when all the smartest kids became journalism majors?
yea, me neither.
OMG its Will Wheaton.
He should lose not only his job - he’ll be given another one by CNN - but his house / apartment, his savings, his pension and what he has left of his sanity.
My FIRST thought as well.
Excellent, now we will smoke out the fake Vietnam Vet and prove he is guilty of stolen valor. In almost every case where young white guys are accused of racial or homophobic behavior, it is a lie and this seems to be following the same pattern.
It won’t stop him, the Left has no morals or shame..................
For those who wrongly thought the Covington kid had a smirk (rather than a nervous “What is this guy doing?” smile), here’s an arrogant smirk right here.
