AP rookie staffer Emily Wilder fired over ‘biased’ pro-Palestinian tweets | New York Post

An Associated Press reporter has been fired over pro-Palestinian tweets she posted while in college – and now she insists she’s a victim of “cancel culture.”

Emily Wilder, a former Arizona Republic intern, started as an AP news associate in Phoenix on May 3, but learned just 16 days later that her time at the 174-year-old news agency would abruptly end due to the “clear bias” it says she showed in her social media posts, the Washington Post reported Thursday.

“It’s really devastating,” Wilder told the newspaper of her termination, adding that she wasn’t informed exactly which posts led to her dismissal.
