A magically disappearing tweet from “CBS This Morning” is only the latest demonstration of the media’s almost inherent nature to protect President Obama — but it might be one of the most brazen.
The tweet was posted on the morning television program’s Twitter account early Saturday commenting on chant’s of “Death to America” during Friday prayers in Iran.
When CBS employee reported Dana Loesch for
fraud she didn’t know who she was messing with!
With the incident taking place just two days after Obama announced an “historic” agreement with Iran to continue working toward an agreement to limit their nuclear program, CBS downplayed the news, saying the chants were “more out of habit than conviction.”
Or in other words, they don’t really mean it.
Even more suspect, almost as quick as the tweet was posted, it suddenly disappeared — unfortunately for CBS, a screenshot was captured.
Oh, well then, as long as it’s just a thing they chant all the time. pic.twitter.com/iCqFVinnIC h/t @BDOH

With the evidence there for all to see, social media users pounced with the usual heavy dose of snark. A sampling of the responses seen on Twitter:
@SonnyBunch Yep, she knows it’s just out of habit. How can it be otherwise since the “deal” fixed everything? @BDOH

@SonnyBunch “They hanged 14 suspected gays, but not with any real malice. That’s just the usual number they hang.” @BDOH

@SonnyBunch @instapundit @BDOH Don’t bake a cake: clear sign of total hatred. Scream “death to America” 100s of times: habit.

@SonnyBunch @BDOH Since Obama, their hearts just aren’t into it. I can tell from looking into their eyes.

@SonnyBunch @instapundit @BDOH You can’t blame them. It’s jihad from muscle memory.

“Maybe CBS is nervous that this obvious sign of evil intent might persuade Americans against Obama’s idiotic nuke deal,” blogger Sooper Mexican noted.
Maybe.
Here are a few responses to the bloggers astute observation from Twitter:
CBS Reports Iran is Still Chanting ‘DEATH to America’ But They Don’t REALLY Mean It! http://t.co/nkT1qe7DR2

@SooperMexican How long do you think CBS tweet was up before they realized they’d been hacked too?

@SooperMexican I’m starting to think @CBS might want to just get off twitter altogether. They really suck at it.
