Chief legal correspondent Jan Crawford from CBS News publicly apologized on Sunday morning for a previously deleted tweet that violated the network's news standards. The tweet, which shared a video from Abdul El-Sayed's town hall, was removed due to the network's standards being breached. In her apology, Crawford expressed regret for her actions.
The deleted post featured a video of a question posed by an attendee, referred to as "Tommy", who asked El-Sayed to distance himself from the Muslim Brotherhood. Crawford's response to Tommy praised his question and El-Sayed's subsequent response, describing it as a "spectacular self-own" and a "nicely timed" moment. The full interaction between Tommy and El-Sayed can be viewed in the video post he shared.
Crawford is CBS News' chief legal correspondent and also contributes to various CBS programs including "CBS Evening News", "CBS Mornings", "Face the Nation", CBS News Radio, and CBSNews.com.
