Leftist CNN anchor Jake Tapper was blasted online as "an NPC programmed to lie" after he falsely identified the accused D.C. pipe-bomber Brian Cole Jr. as "a white man."

"Brian Cole Jr., a 30-year-old white man from the D.C. suburbs, is charged with transporting an explosive device in interstate commerce and with malicious destruction by means of explosion. CNN observed local and federal law enforcement outside his home in Woodbridge, Virginia, this morning," Tapper told viewers - a statement that now appears grossly misleading and suggests the unhinged anchor is upholding a political and racial bias simply because the facts don't fit the fake-news narrative mainstream media has pushed for years.
