CNN Reporter Loses Her Post Reporting On Israeli-Palestinian Conflict for Incendiary Tweet
3,739 Shares      By Justen Charters  22 hours ago

A controversial tweet about Israel has cost a CNN reporter her post covering the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
On July 17th, Diana Magnay tweeted:



Then, Magnay deleted the tweet. A CNN spokesperson said of Magnay’s actions:
“She deeply regrets the language used, which was aimed directly at those who had been targeting our crew,” the spokeswoman continued. “She certainly meant no offense to anyone beyond that group, and she and CNN apologize for any offense that may have been taken.”
Magnay has been reassigned to Moscow. We can only hope that CNN replaces Magnay with someone who doesn’t let their emotions dictate what they’re reporting.

Another reporter was removed for reporting 4 dead kids killed in Gaza. In this case I seen her on CNN reporting and it was sick watching the people there pull up lawn chairs and drink beers as bombs rained down on Gaza, they were cheering, clapping, and laughing every time Israel launched a missile. Not taking sides with Israel or Palestine because both sides have proven themselves to be the scum of the earth.

You better take the side of Israel.  If not, you're anti-Semetic.

Only Muslims cheer in the streets at the death of innocent people, Israelis kill with reluctance and a heavy heart.  Just watch the news, it will show you this FACT over and over again.

War and killing have become common place in this world. Unless you are 'personally effected'....it is just another day...another killing. We are desensitize to all of it now.

Israeli's sit and watch, as they cheer Israeli airstrikes into Gaza!  Of course, israeli's are not cheering this massacre, no-no-no...They are far too civilized, educated, and of course religious to celebrate the bombing deaths of Palestinians...They are not like those bloodthirsty barbarians Palestinians.

Israel gave and gives advance warning when launching airstrikes.  It has repeatedly asked civilians to leave the areas where the Terrorist Hamas cells are operating.  Israelis are NOT celebrating anyone's death rather celebrating that the IDF is FINALLY clearing out the Terrorist Hamas cells.  
If 75% of Americans were at risk of being hit as thousands of terrorist rockets were being lobbed at our nation, we would be welcoming a strong response from the American military.  Of course, Obama would never approve of a strong response -- he'd be too busy playing golf or grabbing a hamburger for a cheap photo op or attending a multimillion dollar fundraiser to line his pockets.

Israel uses missiles and rockets to defend/protect its people.  The Hamas Terrorist Scum use their people to ddefend/protect their missiles and rockets.

And you know this to be a fact, how?    By merely watching the news reports?    Or do you have EVIDENCE from official government documentation?


Hey, I want to believe it but let's face it, if YOU are making a statement, well, we all know about all the fairy tales and lies that you tell.


Hey by the way, did you go on the half million dollar bus tour of today's open houses?    Which one are you making an offer?


Optimists close their eyes and pretend problems are non existent.  
Better to have open eyes, see the truths, acknowledge the negatives, and
speak up for the people rather than the politicos and their rich cronies.

Where were Palestinians going to leave to, Israel or into the ocean?

Yeah, because any impoverished people whose land is being stolen and used for Israeli settlements are scum a have no right to defend what is being stolen.  

Let me guess, you have money invested in the company that's building the next Israeli housing development?

I don't live in the middle east. I 'ONLY' know what the lame stream media punches through the cable lines. And i'm sure it's all 'selective' news....be it for or against.
So forming an opinion based on what the lame stream media reports is like pissing in the wind. imho
