On Thursday, CNN had a number of horribly pro-Hamas moments from both correspondents and guests, including an insane insinuation that Israel was to blame for Gazans not having bomb shelters and attempts to equivocate the work of a terrorist organization in Hamas with Israeli air strikes.
The AM edition of News Central had three. Near the end of its second hour, so-called “Palestinian Journalist” Laila El-Haddad argued Israel is already engaged in an “unfathomable” “war crime” against Palestinians and want to carry out an “ethnic cleansing” that “wipe[s]” Palestinians “out.”
Then, in the third hour, the co-hosts and Connect the World host Becky Anderson were deeply moved and near breakdowns over the graphic images of dead babies posted by the X account of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. After multiple advance warnings, they showed one of them.
Co-host Sara Sidner signed these were “horrifying photos of babies murdered and burned by Hamas monsters, as [Netanyahu] has put it” while Anderson was incredibly emotional: “Well, I'm a mom. Not that — I guess, this is not my story, but as a mom, it's not easy, but nobody will find this easy. You don't have to be a mom to respond or to understand how horrific these images are.”
