CNN’s reaction to the Claudine Gay plagiarism scandal is the most CNN thing ever.

Reporter Matt Egan twisted himself in knots trying to explain away the charges, trying to suggest that it wasn’t real plagiarism, she just copied the work of other people.

It’s amazing the lengths people on the left will go to excuse the actions of other leftists.

There is no way this is an accurate statement from a reporter. Has the liberal media become so desperate to protect their bad actors that they will try to explain how serious infractions that lead to one’s termination are trivial matters? If this was an attempt at gaslighting, it was abysmal. There’s no need to split hairs here—and doing so makes you look like an idiot.

CNN’s Matt Egan attempted to explain how now-former Harvard President Claudine Gay wasn’t accused of stealing anyone’s ideas. She just copied other people’s work and passed them off as her own without attribution. Egan, that’s plagiarism.

CNN is showing how their reporters are a bunch of flunkies who don't know the meaning of words

Do you think CNN would go to bat like this for Claudine Gay if she was a Republican? Not a chance.
