CNN cuts ties with freelancer who tweeted praise for Hitler

In a since-deleted post, Adeel Raja, a journalist based out of Pakistan, wrote, “the world today needs a Hitler,” the Washington Examiner reported. Raja has freelanced for CNN since 2013, according to his LinkedIn account, working on several stories for the network during that time, the report said. After learning off the post, CNN cut ties with Raja. “In light of these abhorrent statements, he will not be working with CNN again in any capacity,” CNN spokesman Matt Dornic told the newspaper.
