Octavia Nasr Fired

Like Helen Thomas, the only mistake Octavia Nasr made was publicly revealing her pro-jihad anti-Israel views as far as her bosses were concerned. I don't think CNN actually had a problem with what she said, only that she was careless enough to do so on Twitter.

CNN fired Octavia Nasr:

A CNN spokesman said Tuesday that Ms. Nasr had made an “error of judgment” that “did not meet CNN’s editorial standards.” . . .

Her explanation of the Twitter message was apparently not enough for her CNN bosses. Ms. Khosravi wrote in the memo, “at this point, we believe that her credibility in her position as senior editor for Middle Eastern affairs has been compromised going forward.”
