From the New York Post: Taylor Lorenz heaped praise on accused UnitedHealthcare CEO assassin Luigi Mangione and slammed the media for criticizing the legion of unhinged youths who consider him a hero or role model.

“It’s hilarious to see these millionaire media pundits on TV clutching their pearls about someone stanning a murderer when this is the United States of America — as if we don’t lionize criminals,” the influencer and former reporter for the New York Times and Washington Post told CNN in a bubbly interview.

“As if we don’t stan murderers of all sorts. We give them Netflix shows,” she added.

Mangione, 26, is on trial for the cold-blooded Dec. 4 execution of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson, 50, who was gunned down in the streets of Midtown Manhattan outside his hotel.

Mangione is accused of plotting the assassination in order to sow terror in the health insurance industry, which he allegedly railed against in a journal police seized during his arrest in Pennsylvania days after the shooting, prosecutors say.

Since the horrific assassination of Thompson, many far-left radicals, mostly young girls and women, have disgustingly gushed over Mangione, calling him a hero, swooning over his looks and sending him fan male.

In the CNN interview, Lorenz also gushed over Mangione, saying, “Here’s this man who’s a revolutionary, who’s famous, who’s handsome, who’s young, who’s smart, he’s a person who seems like he’s this morally good man, which is hard to find.”

Then CNN correspondent Donie O’Sullivan brazenly compared the women supporting Mangione to Americans supporting President Trump, and claimed, “Some people are just really, really desperate.”

Social media users are reacting in fury over Lorenz’s remarks, as she appears to voice her support for a killer.

Amid all the backlash, now Lorenz is trying to walk it back, claiming what she said isn’t what she meant. She wrote Monday morning:

I’m absolutely not “advocating” for his fans I’m talking about how the women who show up outside his court hearings/jail view him. I don’t know why u ppl can’t distinguish between me describing someone else’s belief system and me talking about myself (which I’m not doing here).

Or rather, I think I know why you can’t and I think I know why it’s always weird men who have these outrage meltdowns when I try to talk about extremism online and online fandoms. It’s exhausting.

“When you read the full quote you see that I’m actually saying *his supporters* view him as a “morally good man”, not that I see him that way (we don’t actually know his motivations/morals bc he hasn’t spoken yet). You ppl are exhausting,” Lorenz whined.

“Is this the Babylon Bee?” asked Kyle Mann, who is Editor-in-chief of The Babylon Bee, a satire website.

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.) wrote, “This communist is openly celebrating murder. And treated as an actual “ journalist.””
