Not sure which is worse. The idiot media or the idiots who defend them.

You are ridiculous. The original tweet was sanitized to deflect from the fact that murderous Islamic terrorists committed unspeakable acts that day. Airplanes didn't do it. Just cut the crap out and open your eyes to the nonsense of progressivism and SJW bull shite.


Like I said, the article doesn't shy away from calling it terrorism. While the tweet is the first thing many see, it doesn't change the tone or intent of the article. That was my point.

I'm glad they edited the tweet; I just don't share your view that it was a deliberate attempt to sanitize anything given the actual content of the article. You believe what you want, though.

Is someone seriously trying to argue that the N YT was purposefully avoiding saying the planes were piloted by Muslims? If so, you’re beyond ridiculous. I mean it’s hardly a fact that hasn’t been discussed ad nauseum.

I'm personally shocked they didn't use "Brought down by right-wing terrorists"

If the human-scum at the Times did not shown time and time again what biased, incompetent, racist, lying pieces of zhit they are, your contention might have merit.

The NYTimes have done NOTHING to warrant the benefit of the doubt.

You don't think the NYTimes, given it's history, would try to sanitize 9/11 and divert from the obvious?

Don't get mad because you lefties want everyone to forget why 9/11 happened. You lefties have a proven track record of obfuscating the obvious facts. Also, it's the NY Times. Fake news headquarters.

The article called it an attack.
The article called it terrorism.

The tweet was rightfully edited but unless there was a massive overhaul to the original content of this article that you want to make us aware of, I'm not inclined to suggest they are trying to sanitize anything.

The airplanes. Did you know that the pilots put the planes on autopilot and they they just decided to go forward with the worst terrorist attack ever on American soil?


Why is anyone surprised by this? Progressives always blame the tool and not the person.

Guns, airplanes, bosses, fortune 500 companies, the system.

It's never ever an individual's fault. It is always some object or system or something.

The article was edited too.

Also, commandeer does not have the same connotation as hijack. You can bend both definitions to mean the same thing but they are not the same thing.

I see it now, but given the outrage of the OP, I was looking for something egregious, like excusing the attacks or something.

Of course the fig arse libs on here came to the defense of the NYT. Well the NYT deleted the tweet and reposted it worded differently. So they knew they were wrong. Classic blind knob slobbering by our want crew here.

What did Illian Omar call it?

Was it ridiculous for them to cave to liberals to demand them change the headline of “Trump Urges Unity vs. Racism” to “Assailing Hate but Not Guns.” What is your reasoning that happened?
