CNN Tries to Bolster Image of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi

CNN has recently been trying to bolster the image of terrorist Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.

CNN's Brian Stelter claimed Donald Trump “made up” the story about ISIS head “whimpering and screaming”. CNN fact checker Daniel Dale stated "This brings us to last weekend, because the president claimed repeatedly that this dead terrorist was whimpering and crying right before he blew himself up. The ‘New York Times’ looked into sources who have no idea what the president is talking about, and we’ve heard attorneys on the record saying they can’t confirm any whimpering, any crying. "

CNN is trying to upgrade the image of a man responsible for thousands of deaths and ethnic cleansing across Iraq and Syria.  They would rather bolster the image of a terrorist than give the president credit for his elimination. This is an example of media spin doctoring and a news agency promoting its own political agenda.
