Please pour yourself a nice drink. Get comfortable. Are you ready for this?

CNN has apparently invented a new genre of fake news, "We decide what non-English speaking brown people say on television."

This is a very useful form of fake news, especially when you have been peddling a bullshit narrative for the last four years or so, and need to cover your ass when it is finally revealed that civilians in Aleppo are overjoyed now that the "moderate rebels" have been kicked out of their city. Thank goodness these brown people can't speak the Queen's English!

You can literally hear the child REPEATING HIMSELF. You don't need to speak Arabic to recognize this. Seriously, watch it again:

The boy adds literally two words at the end, and CNN translates this murmur as: "OH BY THE WAY, JUST TO ADD, IN CASE IT HELPS YOUR NARRATIVE: WE WERE ALSO VERY AFRAID BECAUSE OF ALL THE BOMBS ASSAD DROPPED ON US EVERY SINGLE DAY."

CNN must go.
