New York Post accused of censoring report that made Trump look bad
The New York Post has been accused of killing an article that exposed unflattering information about Terry Cole, President Donald Trump’s nominee to lead the Drug Enforcement Agency.
In April, former DEA agents expressed worries about the role Cole played in a botched raid that resulted in the death of 10 Colombian police officers. Concerns were also raised about Cole’s work supervising a Mexican federal police agent who later leaked key information to drug cartels.
It is unclear if the quashed article is connected to previous reports about Cole’s record or based on new allegations.
The Breaker newsletter reported on Monday that Post Editor-In-Chief Keith Poole decided to spike the story that was being worked on by journalist Josh Kosman, who has written for the conservative tabloid for 16 years.
