CNN NewsNight anchor Abby Phillip has apologized after inaccurate claims she made on Tuesday’s (March 10) show regarding the recent terror attack in New York City.
The panel was discussing the incident from this past weekend when two men threw explosives at anti-Islam protestors outside the Gracie Mansion mayoral residence of New York City mayor Zohran Mamdani. The explosives didn’t go off, and both men, Emir Balat (18) and Ibrahim Kayumi (19), were arrested.
