Editor’s Pick: Townhall on CNN Blaming ‘Car’ for Waukesha Attack

On Sunday, Townhall’s Rebecca Downs reported on CNN sending off a “problematic tweet” about the deadly attack on a Christmas parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin. She quoted the media outlet’s tone-deaf social media post: “‘Waukesha will hold a moment of silence today, marking one week since a car drove through a city Christmas parade, killing six people and injuring scores of others,’ the tweet reads.”

Downs explained: “Last week, the Washington Post drew some pretty heavy criticism for a now deleted tweet that spoke about ‘the Waukesha tragedy caused by a SUV,’ but made no mention of the suspect, Darrell Brooks, Jr., who allegedly drove the truck that killed six2 people and injured many more at a Christmas parade last week.” As she noted in her headline, apparently CNN learned no lesson from the Post’s equally embarrassing description of the brutal crime.
