CNN Stealth Edits Headline That Said Jewish Homicide Victim 'Fell and Hit His Head'
Free Beacon ^ | November 16, 2023 | Charles Hilu

Posted on 11/16/2023 3:28:48 PM PST by lowbridge

CNN edited a headline that said Paul Kessler, whom police said was killed by a pro-Palestinian protester, "fell and hit his head."

"Arrest made in death of Jewish protester who fell and hit his head," the original headline to the story read. Police on Thursday morning arrested Loay Alnaji and charged him with manslaughter in the death of the 69-year-old Kessler, who died as a result of his injuries at a Nov. 5 protest, which saw both pro-Israel and pro-Palestinian demonstrations. The outlet updated the post Thursday afternoon with its current headline.

"Arrest made in death of Jewish protester in California after confrontation over Israel-Hamas war," the new headline reads.

Kessler lent his support to the Jewish state at the Nov. 5 event, where he became involved in an altercation with one or more pro-Palestinian protesters, one of whom is believed to be Alnaji. At least one witness said Kessler received a blow to the head with a megaphone, though police had conflicting reports. The county medical examiner ruled his death a homicide at the time.

Too bad the the killer will never receive the death penalty let alone be executed.
Heck, the killer will probably walk.

I thought that the new CNN headline was going to say he fell and hit his head 15 to 20 times, or something like that.

Play It Again, Sam movie line from Woody Allen about guys who beat him up:

“I snapped my chin down onto some guy’s fist and hit another one in the knee with my nose.”

I believe he’s been charged with involuntary manslaughter. So, no, he won’t face the death penalty and yes he will walk, only question being how long from now.

If Hillary enemies can shoot themselves in the back of the head two or three times and die holding the gun in the wrong hand then it sounds plausible I suppose.

This is just like the Pleasant Hill California college professor who repeatedly assaulted conservatives with a bicycle lock at free speech rallies near Berkeley.


It's the leftist college professor privilege at work.

In 2017 at a Berkeley campus "free speech" rally, 28-year-old Diablo Valley College (Pleasant Hill) ethics professor Eric Clanton beat a conservative attendee over the head with a bicycle lock.

Clanton was initially charged with four counts of felony assault with a deadly weapon causing great bodily injury.

In 2018, just before his preliminary hearing, Clanton was allowed to plead "no contest" to one misdemeanor charge battery charge. The felony charges against him were dismissed, and an allegation that he had caused serious bodily injury was stricken. Clanton was given three years of probation.

From Berkleyside: Eric Clanton takes 3-year probation deal in Berkeley rally bike lock assault case:

Police said, previously, that Clanton attacked at least three people with a metal U-lock during the April 15 rally in and around Civic Center Park. Court papers later revealed that Clanton struck at least seven people in the head, according to authorities. One person received a head laceration that required five staples to fix. Another was uninjured but had a piece of a helmet broken off. A third was struck across the neck and back, police wrote.

Re:10

Thanks for the post. I had forgotten the name of the local leftist professor (assistant professor, or lecturer) who skated after using a deadly weapon while viciously assaulting conservative protesters. Eric Clanton.
Another example of a two-sided justice system.

The corrupt, unethical, lying media in this country contributes to, if not is responsible for, over 50 percent of the problems we face in the country.
