CBS首席法律记者Jan Crawford因在社交媒体上发表评论赞扬在Abdul El-Sayed镇厅会上质问其与穆斯林兄弟会关系的人而陷入争议1。Crawford在被删除的推文中将El-Sayed的回应描述为"壮观的自伤"1。
El-Sayed对此作出回应，指出提问者的立场存在问题。他表示："你之所以问这个问题是因为你隐含地假设我会有双重忠诚"1。Crawford的言论引发CBS内部强烈反对，媒体记者Jeremy Barr报道称"CBS新闻内部对Jan Crawford的推文有很多反对意见"1。CNN评论员Karen Finney也对此提出批评，称Crawford"被当场抓住"试图"传播关于Abdul的虚假、种族主义谎言"1。
面对内外压力，Crawford在周日发表道歉声明1。她表示："我删除了那条推文，因为这违反了CBS新闻标准"1。该事件发生在CBS因任命右翼评论员Bari Weiss为编辑主任而面临政治偏见指控的背景下1。
CBS chief legal correspondent Jan Crawford apologized and removed a social media post in which she praised a person who confronted Democratic politician Abdul El-Sayed about alleged ties to the Muslim Brotherhood during a town hall event 1. Crawford's deleted tweet had characterized El-Sayed's response as a "spectacular self own," but the post drew immediate backlash from within CBS News and across the media industry 1. El-Sayed had responded to the heckler by stating: "You're asking this question because you implicitly assume I have dual loyalty" 1.
On Sunday, Crawford issued an apology statement, explaining that she had removed the tweet because "it violated CBS News standards" 1. According to reporting by Guardian media correspondent Jeremy Barr, internal opposition to Crawford's post was substantial, with sources telling him: "There was a lot of pushback within CBS News on Jan Crawford's tweet" 1. CNN commentator Karen Finney was among those criticizing the post, accusing Crawford of being "caught red-handed" attempting to "spread false, racist lies about Abdul" 1.
The incident occurred against a backdrop of scrutiny over CBS News's editorial direction, following the network's appointment of right-wing commentator Bari Weiss as editorial director in October 2025 1, with critics arguing the move reflected political bias within the organization 1.
