CNN hired an Egyptian born photojournalist who posted a series of anti-Semitic slurs on his official Twitter account in 2011 and suggested that it was good that a bomb exploded in Jerusalem, killing “4 Jewish pigs.”

Mohammed Elshamy was hired by CNN in 2019 as a photo editor, according to his Elshamy’s LinkedIn account.
