CNN and The New York Times have had an exceptionally difficult time covering a wave of anti-government, anti-Islamic fundamentalist unrest taking place in Iran. As the Iranian people have taken to the streets to speak out against an oppressive regime, CNN and The New York Times have swiftly moved to rebrand the protests as inconsequential and, at times, anti-American.
According to CNN’s latest, the protests — which have seen women throw off their hijabs, defying years of fundamentalist restrictions telling them what they can and cannot wear in public — are, in fact, a reaction to the Trump Administration’s refusal to honor an Obama-era deal giving the ruling mullahs a controlled path to nuclear weapons.
