Show me again where The New Yorker was wrong? let’s go through the facts one by one.
(1) Minjah said his date’s mother told him on her doorstep that she did not want extended family “in Nebraska” seeing photos of her daughter, who was white, beside him. The New Yorker reported that Minhaj’s so-called date turned him down days before the prom.
Minhaj says in his video that there was no encounter at the doorstep as he had described, but he maintained that the girl’s mother “did really say that” a few days before prom.
So the New Yorker was RIGHT
(2) The New Yorker story notes that the The King’s Jester features a segment alleging Craig Monteilh, a real-life FBI informant who spied on Muslim communities in Southern California, had infiltrated the mosque frequented by Minhaj’s family under the name “Brother Eric.” Monteilh said that he never visited that mosque or met Minhaj, which the comic acknowledged in The New Yorker story.
So, The New Yorker was RIGHT
(3) Minhaj says someone did send him an envelope containing white powder that he opened near his daughter. But contrary to the story he tells in The King’s Jester, he knew right away it was not anthrax, the contents did not spill onto her and she was not rushed to the hospital.
So, The New Yorker was RIGHT
(4) Minhaj says he met with officials at the Saudi Embassy in Washington, D.C., as news broke that journalist Jamal Khashoggi had been murdered at the Saudi embassy in Istanbul. But The New Yorker quotes an unnamed producer who said the meeting took place at least a month earlier.
So, The New Yorker was RIGHT (Minhaj does not address this incident in his article)
(5) The New Yorker says Minhaj’s story about Jared Kushner sitting in a seat that was ceremonially kept vacant for imprisoned Saudi activists at a gala was not true
Again, The New Yorker was RIGHT. (Minhaj does not address this incident in his article)
the next thing we are going to see is an article from The New Yorker bashing Robin Williams because they never actually found that his home was broken in by gay burglars. or he got a refund from a prostitute because he was so bad at sex.
This just in, Larry the Cable Guy not actual cable guy!
Wait was he really from the planet Ork??? Surely he wouldn’t lie about that.
