The Spin

Girudsky's vile comment towards Hasan has no place on a tolerant platform such as CNN. Debate and disagreement should always be encouraged, but the broadcaster should've known better than allow a far-right Project 2025 fanatic on live TV. The incident is merely reaffirmation that the hateful MAGA movement is underserving of the time and attention American media continues to provide.

Having consistently likened Trump and his supporters to Hitler and the Nazis, CNN's double-standards were once again exposed after Abby Phillip and her liberal guests could not contain their outrage at a single comment made by a conservative. It is clear that, despite being perfectly comfortable using inflammatory language when it suits them, the liberal media cannot take a joke.
