As our own Grateful Calvin reported just a bit ago, ABC News disgraced itself by reporting that four “deceased hostages” would be released on Thursday. Do we know why they’re deceased? They were alive and well when Hamas terrorists took them captive on October 7, and now they’re deceased. This is the same sort of headline as the recent incident in Munich in which a vehicle drove into a crowd of people. Was it a self-driving vehicle? Why would a vehicle do that?
CNN’s Kaitlan Collins didn’t do much better with her reporting of the impending hostage release.
Hamas claims it will release the dead bodies of four Israeli hostages this week, including Kfir and Ariel Bibas. The Bibas children were just nine months and four years old when they were kidnapped into Gaza. A heartbreaking moment for their family. Their father, Yarden Bibas,…

They seem awfully young to have died. Did something happen?
They were alive when they were kidnapped.
What happened? Are you even curious?

How’d they die?

How did they die, Kaitlan?

Hi Kaitlan
Will you be adding in your reporting that Hamas murdered a 2 yr old and 5 yr old?
How are they dead? https://t.co/a1IWtjnYhc

Hamas killed babies and their mother. There I fixed your post for you.

So Hamas killed those babies. Spit it out. It’s ok. You don’t have to ramble on.

How did they end up dead @kaitlancollins? Kidnapped into Gaza by who? This seems like relevant information that you as a “journalist” would want to convey to your audience.

Heartless post. You aren’t a journalist. You’re a cold hearted parrot for the left! Two children murdered by Hamas and you write this with zero compassion or disgust for what these vile terrorists have done!

A dead baby can not be a hostage. A dead baby’s body can be held hostage, or you can call it what it is — a murdered baby.

How did those children turn into bodies?

Don’t forget the “slaughtered by Hamas” part of this story.

Maybe Collins is just being professional and not speculating. Maybe they were happy and well-fed and cared for and died tragically in a freak accident.
You going to post the GoFundMe page for Hamas now too?
