Hit the road jackass! Nir Rosen resigns from NYU, quits twitter

Hey Nir Rosen, don’t let the door hit your ass on the way out either! According to National Review (who broke the original story yesterday) Karen J. Greenberg who is the executive director of the NYU Center on Law and Security issued the following weak, tepid statement:

Nir Rosen is always provocative, but he crossed the line yesterday with his comments about Lara Logan. I am deeply distressed by what he wrote about Ms. Logan and strongly denounce his comments. They were cruel and insensitive and completely unacceptable. Mr. Rosen tells me that he misunderstood the severity of the attack on her in Cairo. He has apologized, withdrawn his remarks, and submitted his resignation as a fellow, which I have accepted. However, this in no way compensates for the harm his comments have inflicted. We are all horrified by what happened to Ms. Logan, and our thoughts are with her during this difficult time.

I don’t give a sh*t how “provocative” one is, Rosen’s comments were not only sick and disgusting, but down right disturbing. Anyone who employs this piece of crap in the future should be boycotted at all costs! Oh, btw Nir Rosen claimed “he is quitting twitter” too. But has since made three tweets, including a video promoting himself and his faux apology.
