CNN on Tuesday had to delete an X post downplaying the severity of Islamic attacks that unfolded outside of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s home over the weekend, where two teenagers who threw homemade bombs at anti-Muslim activists were characterized as innocent teens enjoying a normal day and warm weather.

The deleted X post, promoting a CNN article detailing teen terror suspects Emir Balat, 18, and Ibrahim Kayumi, 19, appeared to cast the pair in a favorable light despite their arrests Saturday for throwing two improvised explosives filled with triacetone triperoxide (TATP), nuts, bolts and screws, while yelling “Allahu Akbar” during an anti-Muslim protest held by conservative activist Jake Lang.

“Two Pennsylvania teenagers crossed into New York City Saturday morning for what could’ve been a normal day enjoying the city during abnormally warm weather,” the post stated.

“But in less than an hour, their lives would drastically change as the pair would be arrested for throwing homemade bombs during an anti-Muslim protest outside of Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s home. Here’s what we know so far.”

After a few hours, the network decided to remove the post, admitting it downplayed the incident and violated supposed editorial standards.

“A post regarding the two individuals arrested for throwing homemade bombs outside of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s home failed to reflect the gravity of the incident thereby breaching the editorial standards we require for all our reporting. It has therefore been deleted.”

CNN’s minimized framing of the terror attack is being highlighted as another example of why Americans can’t trust the legacy media.
